RESEARCHING JEWISH AMERICAN HERITAGE THROUGH THE AMERICAN ARCHIVE OF PUBLIC BROADCASTING

May 26, 2026

4:00 PM ET

Our webinars are designed to increase participants’ knowledge of Holocaust history, explore and access classroom-ready content, and support instructional practice to promote student learning and understanding of this complex history and its lasting effect on the world.

In this webinar, Media Historian and Curator Michelle Kelley of the American Archive of Public Broadcasting (AAPB) will provide an overview of the AAPB’s resources related to Jewish American history and culture. These include unedited interviews from documentary productions, as well as public radio and television broadcasts on Jewish American life, many of which are included in the AAPB’s Jewish American Heritage Collection. Michelle will provide information on how to search the site, how to request research access to materials not available online, how to use the AAPB in teaching and research, and more.

The AAPB preserves and makes accessible significant historical content created by public media over the past 70+ years. A collaboration between the Library of Congress and GBH in Boston, the AAPB currently includes over 287,000 items in its digital archive, most of which can be accessed through its website, americanarchive.org.
