Summary[edit]

Media data and Non-free use rationale
Description	Black and white photograph of Stanley Milgram as a young man. Suspected to be from his faculty profile at Harvard in the late 1960s.
Author or copyright owner	Harvard Department of Psychology
Source (WP:NFCC#4)	Original publication: Harvard Faculty Registry Immediate source: https://psychology.fas.harvard.edu/people/stanley-milgram
Use in article (WP:NFCC#7)	Stanley Milgram
Purpose of use in article (WP:NFCC#8)	for visual identification of the person in question, at the top of his/her biographical article
Not replaceable with free media because (WP:NFCC#1)	Stanley Milgram is deceased, and has been deceased for 35 years. The possibility of a creative commons-licensed photograph surfacing in the near future is very unlikely. Dr. Milgram also lived in that intervening period of time where it will be decades before photographs of him as a professor (in the period of time when most of his experiments were conducted) fall into the public domain. The Milgram estate has been reticent to distribute any photographs of him for non-commercial use, and thus this particular photo has spread far and wide to many many different websites across the internet. This is the most widely distributed photograph and also the one for which no copyright claim has ever been asserted or appears to be enforced readily.
Minimal use (WP:NFCC#3)	This photo will only be used at the heading of the Stanley Milgram biographical article and nowhere else. It helps identify the subject of the article and give needed context to the information displayed in the article itself. It will be suitably small and a thumbnail size (175px) to minimize its presentation on the public-facing article to further limit use.
Respect for commercial opportunities (WP:NFCC#2)	This particular photo has spread far and wide to many many different websites across the internet. This is the most widely distributed photograph and also the one for which no copyright claim has ever been asserted or appears to be enforced readily. As per Folsom v. Marsh (1841), the widespread distribution of a work dilutes its commercial prospects and renders it more eligible for fair use doctrine.
Other information	The subject of the photograph has been deceased since: 1984
