Formed in 2009, the Archive Team (not to be confused with the archive.org Archive-It Team) is a rogue archivist collective dedicated to saving copies of rapidly dying or deleted websites for the sake of history and digital heritage. The group is 100% composed of volunteers and interested parties, and has expanded into a large amount of related projects for saving online and digital history.
Biography
Herring was born before 1825, the eldest of the three sons of John Frederick Herring, a sporting and animal painter best known for his portraits of racehorses. Nothing is known of the younger John's education or training, but from an early age he imitated his father's work, his father adding the suffix "Senr" to his signature from at least 1846, in order to avoid confusion. Herring first exhibited at the Royal Academy in 1863, showing there until 1873; but like his father he exhibited chiefly at the Society of British Artists on Suffolk Street, from 1860 to 1875. He died in 1907.
