Born in Warsaw, Indiana, the daughter of Mrs. Elizabeth Loehr,[1] she was interested in art from the time she was a child. She apprenticed with a local artist, who encouraged her to attend art school in Indianapolis, and she then moved to New York to study at the Pratt Institute in Brooklyn.[2] She soon opened her own studio in Brooklyn, and became known as an expert on photographing children and the home.[3] In 1913, she was elected president of the Women's Federation of the Photographers Association of America, and served one term.[4] After that, she continued to give lectures, speaking at conventions and conferences.[5] She also taught classes on photography in New York. On June 12, 1916, she married Chester Irvin Wagner, an inventor and businessman, who had three children from a previous marriage. In newspapers of her day, she continued to use her maiden name, and was still working at photography till at least 1919.[6] She and her husband were living in East Orange, NJ when Chester died in 1942;[7] Pearl died in 1944.
