Uranium Glass
Who is this guy, Photo/Chem Story?

there is a story where a photoagrapher developes his picture in his darkroom but somehow the pictures were exposed to light, so he tried to develope them at his friends house it worked. he figured that it was one of the chemicals in the darkroom that was giving off light. so he finally figured out it was the Uranium Oxide giving off radiation hence giving off light to mess up his pictures.
My question is who was this photoagrapher, his name?
( this guy is back in the day, glass photo’s…)

The story is a bit garbled, but it does sound like Henri Becquerel and the discovery of radioactivity.
