Gifts to Friends of the Smokies come in many forms. In 2006, Friends of the Smokies was the recipient of a very unique gift- a collection of photography from the estate of Knoxville photographer Peter Dreyer. His wife, Trudy, wanted the photographs to benefit Great Smoky Mountains National Park. Here you will find a small selection of images from this important collection.
