Archie Green Obituary

Archie Green - arguably America's premiere public folklorist - has recently passed.    Archie Green was fundamental in the establishment of the American Folklife Center at the Library of Congress.   

His obituary from the New York Times can be found here.

My favorite quote from the article, from Roger Abrahams, "He looked like a hobo, and carried everything around in a paper bag.   He would just sit in the corridors of Congress and wait until people let him in to talk."
