Paul Vanderbilt (1905-1992) was a librarian, curator, and photographer of Philadelphia, Pa., Washington, D.C. and Madison, Wis.

Vanderbilt's work in bibliographic control led Roy Stryker of the Farm Security Administration's Historical Section (later the Office of War Information) to hire Vanderbilt to arrange and classify the vast FSA-OWI photographs. When the collection was transferred to the Library of Congress in 1944, Vanderbilt went with it as Curator of the newly formed Prints and Photographs Division. He remained at LC until 1954, when he left to join the State Historical Society of Wisconsin, where he established the Iconography division. He became a photographer himself toward the later part of his career.
