where can I find a copy of the iPhoto installer

I have a large iPhoto library with rating,scustom albums and tags etc I have entered on the photos. I do not want to switch to Photos. I am currently using Iphoto on my 2017 MBP running the latest Mojave.

I would like to upgrade the MBP to Catalina and then to Big Sur.

I installed Mojave on an external SSD attached to my MBP, but iPhoto is not installed.

Is there any way I can obtain an installer for iPhoto? There is none in the App Store.

I found an iPhoto 9.4.3 update but it will not install because I do not already have iPhoto on this external SSD..

Any help would be appreciated.

Log into the Mac App Store with an Apple ID previously used to download iPhoto, click on the Purchases tab, and download version 9.6.1 from there. Earlier versions of iPhoto won't run in Mojave.

No version of iPhoto will run in Catalina and newer; it requires a 32-bit library.

Thanks, I could not find the "Purchased" tab until your helpful hint about signing in--I just clicked on the icon with my initials and thee were all my previous apps including iPhoto.
