Museum of Old Newbury to hold virtual program Community Content The Museum of Old Newbury will welcome author and museum director Tom Denenberg to present a virtual program titled “Wallace Nutting and the Invention of Old America” at 7 p.m. April 8. Wallace Nutting (1861-1941) might be described as a Renaissance man, although first and foremost, he was an antiquarian. Educated at Phillips Exeter Academy and Harvard, his career path took him from minister, photographer, artist, lecturer, antiques collector, and furniture manufacturer to a New England entrepreneur who made a success from marketing what has been called Old America. Nutting, probably best known as a photographer of hand colored platinum prints during the first quarter of the 20th-century, was born in Rockbottom. He descended from Puritan ancestors and perhaps it was this that first fueled his interest in the Colonial Revival of which he was a central character.
