Podcast appearances and mentions of george griffin

  Most people know something about Mark Twain, the pen name of Samuel Clemens. After all, he wrote his most famous books while living in Hartford, Connecticut. His 25-room house on Farmington Avenue cost over $40,000 in 1874 dollars. Raised as a child in Missouri, he became world famous for his wit and humor both in print and on stage. But what if the man who served as Twain's butler for 17 years had a story that was just as powerful and gripping as Twain's? In today's episode we are going to meet that man, George Griffin.   Twain scholar and collector Kevin MacDonnell's biographical sketch George Griffin: Meeting Mark Twain's Butler which provides the most comprehensive look into Griffin's life to date, and brings us face to face with the man who is said to have inspired Jim in Adventures of Huckleberry Finn. George Griffin came to wash the windows in Mark Twain's new house in 1874 and stayed for seventeen years, taking on the position of butler, the highest-ranking employee in the household.   A photograph of Griffin was discovered recently. It is the only known picture of the man who was also a prominent leader in Hartford's Black community, serving as deacon of Hartford's Metropolitan African Methodist Episcopal Zion Church.   The guests in this episode are Dr. Camesha Scruggs, professor of history at Central Connecticut State University and Twain scholar Kevin MacDonnell.    Dr. Scruggs received her PhD in history from the University of Massachusetts Amherst.  Her current manuscript project is a further examination of how interventions from social, civic, government, secondary and higher education institutions impact the occupation of domestic service during the New Deal Era. She may be contacted at cscruggs@ccsu.edu   Kevin MacDonnell earned his MLS at the University of Texas and serves on the editorial board of the Mark Twain Journal.  He has contributed articles to the Mark Twain Encyclopedia (1993), co-edited Mark Twain and Youth, and has reviewed over fifty books for the Mark Twain Forum. His collection of more than 11,000 Mark Twain items--first editions, letters, photographs, archives, manuscripts, and artifacts--is the largest in private hands and is frequently shared with other scholars and museums. He gives frequent lectures on Twain and may be reached at info@macdonnellrarebooks.com   Copies of The Mark Twain Journal featuring Kevin MacDonnell's biographical sketch George Griffin: Meeting Mark Twain's Butler Face-to-Face may be purchased from the Mark Twain House Museum Store for $12.00. The link to the journal in the museum shop is here: https://marktwainhousestore.org/products/mark-twain-journal-volume-62-number-1   You can also take a special tour of the Twain House.   The George Griffin Living History Tour invites visitors to step back in time to the year 1885. The premise of the tour is that the Clemens family are looking to hire a new cook, and Mr. Griffin has been tasked with conducting the first round of interviews—after all, as the head of the domestic staff, he knows exactly the kind of temperament and skills needed to keep the house running. He leads visitors through each restored room of the house, and gives them his own experience of not only the domestic labor done in that space, but also the emotional labor that he must navigate daily as a formerly enslaved black man working in the house of a wealthy white family. And who is “G. G., Chief of Ordnance?” Find out for yourself when you take a Living History tour with George Griffin.   ------------------------------------------------------- Can you spare $10 a month to help support Grating the Nutmeg?

For full show notes and photos: www.allthroughalens.com   On this episode, we talk to Angel O'brien, @5x7angel on IG, about her strange and beautiful self-portrait and collage work. We'll also be taking a long look at how Kodak advertised to women over a century ago – did they start a revolution or were they just along for the ride? Want a bit of advice? Well, Vania's on call for that; we've got the answering machine, zine reviews, some recommendations, and a whole slew of fun!   Angel O'Brien: 5×7 Angel When we first saw Angel O'Brien's work, we really didn't know what to do with it. What were we looking at? It's a collage, but built around her self-portraits. And those self-portraits aren't really part of a logical reality. They're shifted and distorted, discolored and bent – but it all seems to be coming from a very centered place. Here is some of her work: IG: @5x7angel IG @5x7angel_thebuiltworld IG: @angelobrien.poet web: https://www.5x7angel.com/   Kodak Girls For women, this began to change in the 1870s. The suffragette movement had won for women the sense that men were more in the way than essential (though it had still not procured their right to vote). With the expansion of cities, the job market grew. And with more jobs than men to fill those jobs, women filled the positions. There were still gender norms, of course, but they were changing. What women could and couldn't do in society was shifting. Women were becoming independent. The new generation, especially those born following the Civil War in the 1860s, felt little need for the Victorian ways of their parents and grandparents. They came of age and into their 20s just as photography was about to make a dramatic shift from the stunningly complex to simple. And it was gender norms that would actually carve out a large share of this new photography for women. Here's a sampling of Kodak's Kodak Girl ads:   Zine Reviews My Eye by David Fry – @frymanbandgb Memento Mori – Nunhead Cemetery by George Griffin – Etsy PATREON Thank you to everyone who supports us!

To kick off 2022 and Series 13, we celebrate the contribution of veterans. Host Julia Streets is joined by George Griffin, Customer Success Manager at Salesforce and Vice President of Vetforce, Michelle Osborne, Executive Director, Head of Emerging Talent and Military Veterans Affairs, JP Morgan Chase and David Wiseman, Grants & Programmes Director at the Invictus Games Foundation, Head of Programmes at the Royal Foundation and Co-Founder of Peak State: Mental Fitness. They discuss some of the common misconceptions around hiring veteran talent and from the wider military community and reflect on leadership attributes and the transferable skills which make valuable contributions to financial services organisations. Together they look at the importance of intersectionality, recruitment best practice, building networks and the value of the Armed Forces Covenant.

How do the COVID vaccines work? How do we prioritise recipients? What are the major decisions facing policymakers when executing a mass vaccination campaign -- and where can science help to advise them? George Griffin discusses these questions with Toby Wardman of SAPEA. We also discuss how to get jabs to developing countries, the origins of the anti-vax movement, and whether we should be worried about rare blood clots.
