George Barcroft Cornish began his career as an assistant to W. S. Prettyman.

This Land Rush began at noon on September 16, 1893, with an estimated 100,000 participants hoping to stake claim to part of the 6 million acres and 40,000 homesteads that had formerly been Cherokee grazing land. It would be Oklahoma's fourth and largest land rush. He started his own studio in Arkansas City (a boom town on the border of Indian Territory) where he focused on photographing cowboys and Indians.
