Notes	Sarony was a lithographer and a photographer. As a photographer, he is known for portraits of theatre and film stars. He moved to New York City in 1836.

From 1853 to 1857, the firm was known as Sarony and Company, and from 1857 to 1867, as Sarony, Major & Knapp. Sarony left the firm in 1867 and established a photography studio at 37 Union Square.
