CFP: Panel on Archives, NCPH 2002



I am interested in putting together a panel about archives for the 2002
National Council on Public History conference which will be held in
Washington, D.C. in conjunction with the Organization of American Historians
conference.

My paper looks at the creation of a specific archive, the Seabee archive in
Port Hueneme, California, and the role of the archivist in it's creation.
It examines the influence of an individual on the creation of a historical
record and tries to make a distinction between the personal choices of the
archivist and public memory.

This panel could go in many directions and I'm more than happy to consider
all possibilities.  Right now I am thinking of  focusing on individuals who
influenced archival collections or  discussing  the role of archives in
revising history.

If you are interested, please e-mail me off the list.  The deadline for
submitting the panel is 28 February, so I would like to get this rolling as
soon as possible.

Thanks.
