Title A name given to the resource African American Women in Iowa Collection Description An account of the resource Historian Darlene Clark Hine said: "There is an urgent need to discover and collect more primary source materials pertaining to the lives and experiences of ordinary middle western Black women in both rural and urban communities." Although Hine and her colleagues centered their efforts on African-American women in Illinois, Indiana, and Michigan -- states which traditionally have had more sizable black populations than Iowa -- the history of African-American women in this state is no less important. Indeed, Iowa's African women share a collective history that is both precious and powerful but all too seldom explored. --Kathryn M.

Processes include layering, appliqué, and stitching. On browsing through the titles I found several relating to the Isle of Wight. As I had spent an enjoyable holiday in 2004 walking the Wight coastal path I immediately felt a connection with the subject matter. I had taken some photos with 'I might make something one day' in mind. This was the kick-start I needed. The 5 textile pieces inspired by the card are constructed from artist-dyed and/or digitally printed fabric, wadding and pelmet Vilene. Layers are machine and hand stitched, some with additional appliqué using various materials. I chose to work in a postcard format (6 by 4 inch) for several reasons. The postcard signifies holidays and relates to some extent to the original index card. It also allows me the possibility of display in the Arts Café where works need to fit in to a small glass case. My pieces are more like the souvenir postcards you buy for yourself to stick in a journal than ones you intend to send. I added my own musings on the backs of the postcards to reflect my Format The file format, physical medium, or dimensions of the resource jpeg 10 15.2 Identifier An unambiguous reference to the resource within a given context 173618284 Language A language of the resource eng Publisher An entity responsible for making the resource available University of Iowa.

Title A name given to the resource Iowa City Town and Campus Scenes Description An account of the resource The Iowa City Town and Campus Scenes Collection contains work by the two photographers who were primary in capturing the history of the Iowa City area for over a century. Samuel Calvin, Professor of Natural Sciences at the University of Iowa (1873-1911) exhibited important geological features both in and outside of Iowa with his glass plate camera, but his photographs of Iowa City and the University of Iowa campus show its history in beautiful detail. Frederick Wallace Kent followed as lecturer and instructor in photography at the University beginning in 1923, and later founded the University Photo Service in 1947. Kent captured not only university life such as sports and graduation in detail, but also photographed commercial and residential buildings off-campus in Iowa City, both from the ground and above. Together, these two photograph collections are an invaluable pictoral piece of Iowa City history.
