  • 9910-02  Belle B. Chase was the wife of photographer Dana B. Chase, who was active in many Colorado and New Mexico cities beginning in 1873. In 1889 he settled in Denver and operated a studio there until 1898, at which time he presumably died and his studio became Mrs. B. B. Chase’s. She continued to operate the Denver studio at the same address (916 16th St.) through at least 1902. She is listed as a photographer in Los Angeles from 1917-1920 (at 317 West 6th Street).
