 Many thanks to our interviewees, who shared their time and stories; to Atkins Library for their support in archiving these interviews; and to Alex Chapin and Xander Marciniak, who helped sort our new technologies and create this digital, accessible archive. We hope this archive offers a glimpse of all the work that goes into feeding the Queen City.
