Abstract

The longer you ignore those boxes – of letters, diaries, papers, photographs, tapes – that are under your desk, in your closet, stashed in your storage room, the greater the danger of losing valuable history forever. This is the true tale of how one small non-profit arts organization saved an oral history of American art that was on the verge of, quite literally, fading into oblivion.
