Due to space constraints, I have not listed the many short-term research projects on which I have served.
In June 2007, I completed a week-long series of seminars at major film archives in London, England through FOCAL.

Special note: I am seeking home movies of the Berrigan Brothers for documentary in progress by Susan Muska and Greta Olafsdottir entitled, "America is Hard to Find"
