Herb Poppke Photograph Collection

 

The Herb Poppke photographs are a part of the Herb Poppke Collection, and contain seventy-three photographs. The dates of the photographs include: 1976, 1985, 1993, and 1997. Some of the photographs are of Poppke, but the majority of them are from Poppke’s journey through the Ukraine in 1993. Some of the photographs have been used for Poppke’s Photo Journals on the Germans from Russia Heritage Society (GRHS) website, but there were also many photographs that were not used or published. Reoccurring people in the photographs include: Herb Poppke, Sergei Kaspirzny (Poppke’s translator), Andrei Kononyenko (Poppke’s driver), Oksana (Andrei’s wife), Kostya (Poppke’s travel agent/ translator), Victoria (Kostya’s wife), and Ruslan Kondratuk (archivist).
