Dapper dresser Charles Teenie Harris, though known as one shot, shot more
than 80,000 pictures in his hometown of Pittsburgh. During a forty-year career
with The Pittsburgh Courier he shot ordinary people, jazz legends, Negro league baseball players, and the town. A great life that ended on a sour note.

This really didn't end on a sour notes. The court ruled in the family's favor and awarded them control over the prints and negative, not to mention a huge monetary judgment. Plus, they sold the collection to the Carnegie Museum of Art, paid by an undisclosed sum with a grant from the Heinz Family Fund (go Teresa go).
