Subject: Oral History Meet Could Include Tug Talk |
|
Voices of the Chesapeake: a conference on oral history preservation, sponsored by Online History Mid-Atlantic Region (OHMAR) and Washington College, will be held on Friday, March the 2 and Saturday, March 3, 2007. Unless noted, all activities will be held in the Washington College's Casey Academic Center, Chestertown, Maryland. Carrie Albert who directs the Baltimore Museum of Industry's collections and research functions and also works on exhibit development will be one of the speakers. Having joined the BMI in 2003, Albert led her department through collections planning, large collections moves and recovery and restoration efforts after Hurricane Isabel. Ms. Albert's other museum experience includes positions at the Historical Society of Delaware and Frank Lloyd Wright's Fallingwater. Her publications include co-authoring Along the Delaware River published by Arcadia Publishing. We should hope that Ms. Albert, who has been working closely with Baltimore & Chesapeake Steamboat board chairman Bob Pratt will want to mention the oral history project we hope to get underway relative to the Sassafras River sinking and salvaging of Steam Tug BALTIMORE 1979-1981 project.
