Joseph Crespino, author and Jimmy Carter Professor of History at Emory University, discusses his book, “Atticus Finch: The Biography,” at a Rosemary Magee Creativity Conversation in Emory’s Woodruff Library. Rosemary Magee, former director of the Stuart A. Rose Manuscript, Archives and Rare Book Library, joins Crespino for the conversation, which includes a discussion of the Rose Library’s recent acquisition from rare book collector Paul R. Kennerson. It contains personal letters to friends and other materials from Harper Lee, author of the Pulitzer Prize-winning novel “To Kill a Mockingbird” and the recently published “Go Set a Watchman.” Finch, a significant character in both books, was based on Lee’s father, an attorney. Crespino’s book draws on exclusive sources to reveal how Harper Lee’s father provided the central inspiration for each of her novels. The Rosemary Magee Creativity Conversations series highlights creativity and imagination as essential to every discipline and enterprise. The event is sponsored by the Bill and Carol Fox Center for Humanistic Inquiry; Center for Creativity & Arts; Emory College of Arts & Sciences; Emory Department of History; Stuart A. Rose Manuscript, Archives, and Rare Book Library, and the Emory Libraries.

Part 3 of ROCKSTARS, BURNOUTS, AND SURVIVORS Guest: Gabrielle Dudley, Instruction Archivist & QEP Librarian at Emory University’s Stuart A. Rose Manuscript, Archives, and Rare Book Library First broadcast March 23 2018. Playlist at https://www.wrek.org/2018/03/playlist-for-lost-in-the-stacks-from-friday-march-23rd-when-the-past-is-the-present-episode-377/ "I was burned. I was mentally exhausted."  

New York City-based photographer Hugo Fernandes joins Randy Gue, curator of modern, political and historical collections at Emory’s Stuart A. Rose Manuscript, Archives, and Rare Book Library, for a conversation about his “Intimate Strangers” photography series. For 10 years, Fernandes initiated meetings with men through online and app-based cruising sites to set up photo shoots. The resulting portraits explore anonymity, intimacy, sexuality and digital culture. “One of the striking aspects of the series, specifically addressed in the talk, is how shifts in technology, in photography, and in networking applications affected Hugo’s work,” Gue says. “When he started this project in 2006, he posted ads on Craigslist. Much later in the series, he used apps like Grindr and Scruff.” Fernandes’ work is part of the Rose Library’s growing photography collection that explores issues of gender and sexuality, including the collections of Jon Arge, Dianora Niccolini, Len Prince, Billy Howard, and Catherine Kirkpatrick, as well as the library’s LGBT collections.

Two Emory Libraries fellows combined history and technology to create a tour of the Emory University campus and Emory Village that is accessible by smartphones and tablets, and the Libraries launched the project with a panel discussion. Panelists include Gary Hauk, Emory University Vice President, Deputy to the President, and Emory historian; Sally Wolff-King, senior editor of health publications at the Emory Clinic and adjunct faculty at Emory University School of Medicine; Leslie Harris, associate professor of history and African American Studies at Emory; and NaVosha Copeland, a senior in Interdisciplinary Studies in History, Society, and Culture at Emory. The Emory Campus History Tour (http://tour.emory.edu) uses historical materials housed in Emory’s Stuart A. Rose Manuscript, Archives, and Rare Book Library to lead visitors on a directed mobile tour of the historic Druid Hills campus, which was deeded to Emory in 1915. Maps, video clips, and images combine with the narrative to tell a story of the campus and its development throughout the 20th century. Matthew Strandmark, a research library fellow working in MARBL, and Anne Donlon, a postdoctoral fellow with MARBL and the Emory Center for Digital Scholarship, co-developed the mobile application.
