“In the First Person: The Fortunoff Video Archive for Holocust Testimonies,” on view through Jan. 28, 2025, is the first large-scale exhibition of videotaped interviews with Holocaust witnesses and survivors.
Elga Ruth Wasserman, JD ’76, was a passionate advocate for the first classes of women enrolled in Yale College in the 1960’s and ’70s. Her portrait was installed in Bass Library last year.
Curated by AJ Laird, the exhibition features 19th- and 20th-century mariners’ logbooks, which documented every aspect of sea voyages as they unfolded and reveal the complex world of the whaling industry.
