Archivist's Alley

Elena Colón-Marrero is a rockstar and one of the most important women in her field. As you will learn in this episode, she is, more or less, creating her own field. Digital preservation and archiving is still fairly new and many wonderful people are working in this area, but what Elena is doing is revolutionary. Check it out! For more info and links to her writing and a more in-depth look at Elena, please check out the piece on the Archivist's Alley site.  

I have no qualms about saying that I am 100% in favor of the Echo Park Film Center in every which way possible. Therefore this episode really needs no introduction. Please listen and support this amazing this wonderful place!

For episode 3, I talk to the fabulous Snowden Becker about a whole slew of things from home movies to the feminization of certain jobs in the police force to her own very critical work on police-worn body cameras and their impact on the evidentiary process. I'll say this about every episode because all my guests are super amazing but the info here is just mind-blowing. Don't miss it!

This week I talk with the wonderful Jarrett Drake about accountability in archiving, his work as an archivist and transitioning into the field of cultural anthropology. Don't miss this episode!
