Ganaway was born and raised in Murfreesboro, Tennessee by parents and grandparents enslaved on plantations owned by city founders Burrell Gannaway and Lieutenant Colonel Hardy Murfree. Ganaway\u2019s photograph, \u201cThe Spirit of Transportation,\u201d won first place in the 1921 Wanamaker Photographic Salon, beating out renowned photographers Edward Weston, Man Ray, and Paul Strand. Completely self-taught, Ganaway worked as a butler in Chicago for some eighteen years. His employer, wealthy widow Mary Lawrence, allowed him one day off every two weeks, which he spent perfecting his craft."}
