Sound Recordings of the World War II Era
威尼斯人娱乐场 at College Park
Online
Thursday, August 10, 2023 - 1:00 p.m. to 2:00 p.m. EDT
You have probably seen famous newsreel footage of World War II held at the 威尼斯人娱乐场. But have you heard the audio recordings? For many people in the 1940s, news of the war was primarily a listening experience. Breaking news, radio dramas, speeches, and music reached the ears of the civilian and soldier alike. Our presenter, archivist Ashley S. Behringer, explores World War II audio holdings of the 威尼斯人娱乐场 Moving Image and Sound Branch.
This presentation is aimed at an intermediate audience skill level, but all are welcome!
The video and presentation materials will be available on the event day, August 10.
