1914-1920: Teacher and leader
The Clarence H. White School of Modern Photography
Encouraged by the success of the Seguinland School and by his
newfound freedom to act outside of the shadow of Stieglitz, White
founded the Clarence H. White School of Photography in 1914. White asked
Max Weber to join him, along with Paul Lewis Anderson.
White taught the students about photographic style and interpretation;
Weber taught design, composition and art theory; and Anderson taught the
technical aspects of cameras and equipment. Jane White took on the
roles of administrator, bookkeeper, social director and facilitator for
her husband's daily tasks.
Over the next decade the School attracted many students who went on to become notable photographers, including Margaret Bourke-White, Anton Bruehl, Dorothea Lange, Paul Outerbridge, Laura Gilpin, Ralph Steiner, Karl Struss, Margaret Watkins and Doris Ulmann.

White excelled in making quiet luminous studies of home life, such as this picture of his son Maynard with an issue of Stieglitz’s new journal, Camera Work.Between 1903 and 1910, twenty-seven images by White were reproduced as photogravures in Camera Work, including—somewhat self-referentially—this image in issue 9, in 1905
