From the years 1953-1958, Mike Kinnear took photos during his school years, until graduation, while working for Fred Ryan Ltd. after school and holidays. Photos for him was a hobby, and he took many photos of the smelter and townsite as it grew around him. Mike also took a number of photos for the Kitimat Northern Sentinel, during the Ken Brumley and Pixie Meldrum years as editors. Mike and his family left Kitimat in 1958, but he spent the best part of 40 years in the photographic field, mainly in the retail/wholesale part of the photo industry.

Photograph of Nora Mah, youngest daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Tim Mah of Coquitlam, B.C. When Nora was a baby, she was born with a hole in her heart and was unable to make any progress. Technically it was a ventricular septal defect in a wall between the chamber of the heart. After her fifth birthday a heart surgeon in Vancouver operated on Nora and repaired the defect. She became "Little Miss Heart Fund 1968."
