Cary Grant Visiting Menlo Park Laboratory in Greenfield Village, August 9, 1955

Many famous individuals have visited Greenfield Village and Henry Ford Museum over the years. Actors, authors, and artists have passed through the entrance gates; business leaders, royalty, politicians, and a host of others have toured the exhibits. Photographs by the institution's photographer were taken if the celebrity allowed it. Cary Grant, one of Hollywood's dashing leading men, stopped by in 1955.
