Laton Alton Huffman (October 31, 1854 – February 28, 1931) was an American photographer[1] of Frontier and Native American life. Born in Winneshiek County, Iowa, he spent most of his life photographing the area around his Montana home. Having initially worked at Fort Keogh, he started to sell prints of his glass plate negatives.[2] In 1976, he was inducted into the Hall of Great Westerners of the National Cowboy & Western Heritage Museum.[3]
