Anti-war activist and whistleblower Daniel Ellsberg, who died last week, is being remembered with an exhibit at the UMass Amherst Libraries.

Lasting through the summer, the exhibit is drawn from the vast collection of Ellsberg’s documents, photographs, and artifacts he donated to UMass Amherst in 2019.

WAMC’s Pioneer Valley Bureau Chief Paul Tuthill spoke with Jeremy Smith, the Ellsberg archivist at the W.E.B. Du Bois Library at UMass Amherst.

The record-setting tenure of Springfield Mayor Domenic Sarno. The 2011 tornado and its recovery that remade the largest city in Western Massachusetts. The fallout from the deadly COVID outbreak at the Holyoke Soldiers Home. Those are just a few of the thousands and thousands of stories WAMC’s Pioneer Valley Bureau Chief Paul Tuthill has covered for WAMC in his nearly 17 years with the station.
