Ken's preferred credit line is ethically correct.  It's probably the ONLY
way to do it properly.

Hi Jim. Neither would I. But some people have criticized me for asking
that my ownership of some of Roberta Hill's negatives be credited as "R.
Hill Photo/ K. Josephson Collection." It's as if they believe I am
trying to take credit for Ms. Hill's photo art by asking that my
ownership be recognized. Incidently, Ms. Hill's family have asked that I
not use Roberta's full name when I credit her photos. Ken J.
