I recently spoke with Gretjen Clausing, host of the Pulling Focus radio show/podcast that zooms in on what's happening in film and digital media culture in Philadelphia and beyond.
We enjoying a sprawling conversation about the challenges of caring for family archives, the paradox of Marie Kondo tidying impulses versus the value of saving things, and how radical librarianship can be a immense power and responsibility.
Check out the interview on Soundcloud.
I've long admired the writing and storytelling in The Bitter Southerner, so I'm thrilled that they are a distribution partner for my short documentary film, For Memories' Sake, made several years ago but never distributed online till now.
I'm honored to be included in their latest issue, alongside an interview about the making of the film and highlighting some wonderful new photographs from Angela Singer, my grandmother extraordinaire.
