Very late career[edit]

My mother's Bristol University graduation photo, taken at Bristol on or around 4 July 1956, has the stamp on the back 'Norman Whitten Photographer, 54 Girton Road, [Gree]nford, Middx.' Obviously this can't be cited in the article, but is there any other citable evidence that his very later career was as a photographer? Stronach (talk) 16:38, 30 December 2021 (UTC)[reply]
