He said “I want my work to stand the test of time, and be shared.” What reminds me of this is the Till story, where he says he was writing the publication so that it would be something that we had evidence of… so that “it need not occur again.” And here we are today working on the Till story.
That’s Rosalind Withers, Executive Director of the Withers Collection Museum & Gallery, talking about her dad - the late Ernest Withers - the famed photographer and chronicler of the Civil Rights era and the Black experience in the 20th century.
Join host Mark Fleischer for this candid interview with Ms. Withers, where the two discuss her dad's historic legacy, the new documentary THE PICTURE TAKER, the new feature film TILL, a new art project from the 1687Club featuring her dad’s work, and her dad's complicated history with the FBI. Recorded in late September 2022 at the photography studio of Ernest Withers at 333 Beale Street, Memphis.
