    Beyond Scope and Content: Hidden Histories from the Film Archive

    Welcome to Beyond Scope and Content. This podcast series from the University of Washington Libraries, Special Collections, and funded by the Friends of the Library, will take you on a journey into the hidden stories of women filmmakers in the Film Archive. While there are a number of fascinating tales in the moving image archives, those of women filmmakers and artists are most in need of attention. The goal of Beyond Scope and Content is to focus on the collections of three prolific and talented women from the Northwest. Doris Chase, Ruth Kirk, and Jean Walkinshaw all deserve to have their work brought to the attention of the public for further research and study.  If you would like to explore the collections of these filmmakers, check out these resources. Films from the Ruth and Louis Kirk Moving Image Collection are available on the University of Washington Libraries Digital Collections site, and works from the Doris Chase video and art collection are available on the Internet Archive. Programs from the Jean Walkinshaw films and videos will soon be available through the Internet Archive.

    Episode 4: Jean Walkinshaw

    Jean Walkinshaw is a force of nature. She is in her 90s and lives alone, she’s sharp as a tack, and spends her days creating a video memoir to share with her family. Jean’s amazing. And she’s always been amazing. Jean Walkinshaw (1926- ) is an award-winning television producer who spent her career profiling important cultural figures from the Pacific Northwest, such as Tom Robbins, George Tsutakawa, Guy Anderson and Roberta Byrd.

    Episode 3: Ruth Kirk

    Ruth and her husband, Louis, made documentary films for decades. The Kirks are always outside hiking, camping, canoeing, going to archaeological digs or meeting with people from indigenous communities throughout the US and Canada. Ruth Kirk (1925-2018), a writer and photographer, made films and television programs with her husband Louis, exploring the wonders of the natural world. Her work also documented an archeological dig at Neah Bay and the intricate relationship between the Makah and the scientists working on the decades-long excavation.

    Episode 1: Welcome to The Archive

    What is an archive and how do people use it? How do things end up in an archive? And what the heck are "moving images," anyway?  Hannah Palin, Moving Image Curator at the University of Washington Libraries, Special Collections, will take you on a deep dive into a few collections featuring women filmmakers. These artists have been overlooked or have faded from our collective memory, but their work is sophisticated and passionate and definitely worth watching. After listening, you're going to need to go watch the work of Doris Chase, Ruth Kirk, and Jean Walkinshaw. Films from the Ruth and Louis Kirk Moving Image Collection are available on the University of Washington Libraries Digital Collections site, and works from the Doris Chase video and art collection are available on the Internet Archive. Programs from the Jean Walkinshaw films and videos will soon be available through the Internet Archive.
