- Notice biographique
- Through her photographs of the events and people around her, Mildred Gamble documented Prince Edward Island life between 1905 and 1920. Gamble lived in PEI most of her life, except for the three years she studied nursing in Winnipeg, Manitoba from 1919 to 1922. In order to earn a living, Gamble worked as a teacher and nurse. Her images were exhibited publicly only once during her life, in an exhibit in 1982 entitled "Rediscovery: Canadian Women Photographers 1841-1941." Gamble's photographs are held in the collection of the Public Archives and Records Office of Prince Edward Island, the National Gallery of Canada Archives, and Library and Archives Canada. There have been several exhibitions of her work in Prince Edward Island since her death.
