  • Nubar Alexanian's Topic
    The Transom Review Vol. 1/Issue 12 Nubar Alexanian’s Topic Schooners About Nubar Alexanian Nubar Alexanian was born in 1950 in Worcester, Massachusetts. He became passionate about photography while studying at Boston University, and later co-founded the Essex Photographic Workshop in Essex, Massachusetts. He has traveled and photographed extensively in Peru. His 1991 book of photographs from Peru, Stones in the Road, has been called by Peruvian novelist Mario Vargas Llosa, "an authentic expression of our geography and our people, making at the same time a personal statement which is artistically original and morally compelling." In 1990 Alexanian started a five year project about music, traveling around the world with twenty-five musicians, including Paul Simon, Wynton Marsalis, Philip Glass, Emmylou Harris, and Phish. The resulting book, Where Music Comes From, published in 1996, captures the spirit of music, as it explores what inspires committed musicians. His new book, Gloucester Photographs, is about his home town of Gloucester Massachusetts, and will be published in October 2001 by Walker Creek Press. The publication of this book will coincide with an Copyright 2001 Atlantic Public Media The Transom Review – Vol.1/ Issue 12 exhibition of this work and other recent work at the Cape Ann Historical Museum in Gloucester, which opens Saturday November 3, 2001 and runs through January, 2002. Alexanian's many awards include a Fulbright Fellowship in 1983. His work has been featured in The New York Times Magazine, Life, Geo Fortune, National Geographic, and The London Sunday Times, among other publications around the world. He has had numerous one-person exhibitions in the United States and Europe, and his work is in private and museum collections internationally.

  • Dissertation, Finalised
    “A Mass Conspiracy To Feed People” Globalizing Cities, World-Class Waste, and the Biopolitics of Food Not Bombs David Henry Galen Boarder Giles A dissertation submitted in partial fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy University of Washington 2013 Reading Committee: Daniel J. Hoffman, Chair Ann Anagnost Miriam Kahn Celia Lowe Program Authorized to Offer Degree: Anthropology, Sociocultural © Copyright 2013 David Henry Galen Boarder Giles University of Washington Abstract “A Mass Conspiracy To Feed People” Globalizing Cities, World-Class Waste, and the Biopolitics of Food Not Bombs David Henry Galen Boarder Giles, PhD Chair of the Supervisory Committee: Assistant Professor Daniel J. Hoffman, PhD Department of Anthropology This is an ethnography of waste, cities, and social movements. Primarily one social movement in particular, Food Not Bombs, which recovers and freely redistributes wasted food in the public spaces of hundreds of cities, in dozens of countries, on every continent except Antarctica. In the process, chapters contest highly polarised geographies of hunger, homelessness, and public space in these places. This dissertation explores three aspects of Food Not Bombs’ context and cultural logic: (1) the ways in which waste is made and moved about in cities; (2) the ways in which those cities are becoming global in the process of waste-making (and vice versa); and (3) the ways in which this globalised waste-making cultivates globalised forms of social organisation and political resistance. This research has consisted of extensive participant-observation within Food Not Bombs chapters and some of the larger political and cultural communities in which they are embedded—Dumpster-divers, squatters, homeless advocates, punks, anarchists, and so on—in Seattle, New York City, San Francisco, Boston, Melbourne, Australia, and several other cities.

  • Transom Review: Norman Corwin on War, Poetry, and Radio
    The Transom Review Vol. 1/Issue 14 Norman Corwin’s Topic About Norman Corwin Writer/Director Norman Corwin, now 91, is considered by many observers to be the world's foremost writer in the Golden Age of Radio, where he rose to the pinnacle as he "survived ten years in radio without ever having or needing a sponsor." His prodigious contribution during World War 2 culminated in the classic radio drama "On a Note of Triumph" in May, 1945. He is the recipient of the One World Award, two Peabody Medals, an Oscar nomination, an Emmy, a Golden Globe, a DuPont-Columbia Award, and an induction into the Radio Hall of Fame. Norman Corwin is the author of 17 books, five stage plays, and numerous movie and TV works. His professional and academic credits include visiting lectureship at five major universities. Currently, Mr. Corwin teaches at the University of Southern California. In 1995, a collection of his letters was published by Barricade Books, which includes correspondence with Edward R. Murrow, Orson Welles, Bette Davis, Groucho Marx, and Carl Sandburg. In January 2001, he completed writing/directing a series of dramatic specials for public radio, "More By Corwin," starring Walter Cronkite, Ed Asner, Hume Cronyn, Charles Durning, Martin Landau, Jack Lemmon, William Shatner, and Carl Reiner, among many others.

    The Transom Review Volume 11/Issue 1 Chana Joffe-Walt January 2011 (Edited by Sydney Lewis) Intro from Jay Allison By now, you know about Planet Money: http://www.npr.org/blogs/money/ You know their reputation for breaking down the big stuff into digestible bites, for taking abstract concepts and making them concrete, for taking non-stories and making them stories. Planet Money's Chana Joffe-Walt runs down some of their tricks for us on Transom. If you've heard Chana's stories, you know she has a breezy, curious way of tackling the most obscure stuff, so that you actually want to understand it, and then you actually do. This is partly due to the innate talent of Chana and her editors, but there are tricks you can learn and Chana's Transom Manifesto details five of them: Sign-Post, Find Characters, Think Small(er), Go on a Quest, Organize. All are illustrated with scripts or audio. You'll find this useful, we promise, because these tricks can, in modified form, help any radio story, complicated or not. The Transom Review – Vol.11/ Issue 1 About Chana Joffe-Walt Chana Joffe-Walt a reporter for NPR’s global economics team Planet Money. She has done stories about FDIC bank takeovers, global piracy (the kind with boats), toxic assets and post earthquake Haiti. She recently won the Daniel Schorr Journalism prize for her investigative segment on AIG and the roots of the 2008 financial meltdown. Prior to Planet Money, Joffe-Walt covered education in Seattle for member station KPLU.
