Episode 020: Hank Hassell (NAU Cline Library)

#beyondFLG

LFG as Bill Gates and Steve Ballmer with the 95 Windows launch moves (https://www.instagram.com/p/Cmc7ht6tV4b/) sit with the legendary Hank Hassell of Cline Library lore. Hank is a librarian and curator for Harvard of the West's Cline Library where he is charged with cataloguing special collections as they become available to the library. In this, he holds a deep love and fondness for the history of the region - particularly Glen Canyon. He curated a special exhibit titled, "Images of a Lost World: Glen Canyon on the Colorado." The exhibit itself features 56 photographs of Glen Canyon and its tributaries before the magnificent canyon complex was flooded by the waters impounded by Glen Canyon Dam. The exhibit will be available to tour through July 2023.

In this episode, alongside sharing about the exhibit, Hank discusses some important life experiences, how he found himself in Flagstaff, what led to taking a deep interest in the history of Glen Canyon, and his book, "Rainbow Bridge: An Illustrated History." As always, thanks for tuning-in, we're bigly grateful. And, as always for real... Lovies.
