THE LIVING NEW DEAL WEBINAR SERIES 2024

Tuesday, June 11, 2024, 5-6pm PDT

"Whose Stories? Exploring the legacy of the Federal Writers’ Project” ([link removed])
in conversation with David Taylor and Susan Demasi

The People's Recorder, a national podcast launched in 2024, recounts stories of American life in the 1930s using interviews and recordings made by workers of the WPA’s Federal Writers’ Project. This webinar intertwines voices from the past with contemporary stories while exploring the FWP’s legacy—what it achieved, where it fell short, whose stories got told and what it means to America today.

David Taylor is writer and a producer of The People's Recorder from Spark Media. He wrote and co-produced the 2009 award-winning documentary "Soul of a People, Writing America’s Story,” ([link removed]) directed by Andrea Kalin, about the origins of the FWP, in conversation with Susan Demasi, ([link removed] ) author of the 2017 biography, Henry Alsberg: The Driving Force of the New Deal Federal Writers’ Project ([link removed]) . She is National Research Associate for the Living New Deal.
