Diversity Committee’s Cultural Enrichment Series Presents the Making of “Onward and Upward: An Oral History of Austin A. Harrison”

Diversity Committee’s Cultural Enrichment Series Presents Matt and Seth Jordan and the Making of “Onward and Upward: An Oral History of Austin A. Harrison”

Matt and Seth Jordan will discuss the creation of their full-length amateur documentary, “Onward and Upward: An Oral History of Austin A. Harrison, a Communications Builder.” This personal project, which became part of their School of Information Sciences coursework, explores the life and career of their grandfather, who embodied a unique expression of the “American Dream” from his childhood during the Great Depression to his career in the broadcasting and telecommunications fields. Besides reflecting on their creation process, Matt and Seth will also summarize their grandfather’s career and show clips from the movie.
