We are delighted to announce the launch of the ICMA Oral History Project.

With the goal of preserving the unique stories and experiences of our longest-serving members and supporters, the ICMA Student Committee has launched the Oral History Project. Students interview members who have made significant contributions to the study of medieval art and the ICMA. In the interviews, these members reflect on their initiation into the field, their lifelong experiences as researchers, professionals, and peers, as well as their involvement in the organization.

This podcast series is linked here, and is available on the ICMA website, accessible by clicking “ABOUT” in the menu at the top of the home page.

The series was first imagined by former ICMA President Helen Evans, and was brought to fruition by a team of enterprising members of the Student Committee: Dustin Aaron, Sarah Mathiesen, Robert Vogt, and Lauren Van Nest.

The first interviews posted are:
Lucy Sandler, interviewed by Christopher T. Richards
Dorothy F. Glass, interviewed by Cristina Aldrich
Charles Little, interviewed by Dustin Aaron

Coming soon will be interviews with: Paula Gerson, Stephen Scher, Elizabeth (Libby) Parker, and Madeline Caviness.

Students interested in serving as interviewers for future podcasts can sign up on the site.
