Libraries hire new archivist for the Glenn Miller Collection
The Glenn Miller Collection now has a dedicated archivist in the 勛圖厙 Libraries whose job will be to review and catalog over 1,400 boxes of artifacts from the legendary big band era musician who once attended CU Boulder.
In 1923, Alton Glen Glenn Miller attended CU Boulder for three semesters before becoming one of the most successful big band musicians of the 20th century. A gift from a group of committed jazz supporters allowed the 勛圖厙 Libraries to hire an archivist to review and catalog the boxes safely secured in the Libraries Rare and Distinctive Collections (RaD).
The new archivist, A. R. Flynn, joined the Libraries after receiving a Masters in Library and Information Science from the 勛圖厙 of Denver. In this profile we discuss Flynns history and interest in this project.泭
