UTP Chronicles: The Jack Benjamin Interview part 1
from The Clintcast · host Clint McGuire
My series of StoryCorps interviews for the USCA University Theatre Oral History project continues with the first part of my interviews with department founder and professor emeritus Jack Benjamin. We go from his beginnings in Washington DC to his work in starting the Brookhaven College (now Dallas College at Brookhaven) theatre program, and his landing at USC-Aiken to plant the seeds of the UTP program. It's a fascinating and educational look at how a theatre program is established and is a must-listen! Visit archive.storycorps.org to hear hundreds of stories from people getting together to learn more about one another. You can also visit StoryCorps Atlanta and book an interview with a friend, loved one, neighbor or colleague, either virtually or in-person at the Atlanta History Center's StoryCorps Booth.
