CCWS is proud to present a talk by Mark Quigley, Manager of the Archive Research & Study Center (ARSC) at the UCLA Film & Television Archive. Mr. Quigley will present a curated selection of obscure celluloid and cathode relics of Cold War representations of “The Bomb.” Extensive clips from grim, historic newsreels and nightmarish, long-forgotten dramatic television specials will be fore-grounded as moving image archival research resources and strategies are outlined in-brief. Mr. Quigley’s talk will be followed by a brief Q & A session. Please join us for this unique and insightful presentation.
