Description

Collecting seventy-nine oral histories from former public housing residents and staff, J.

He retired from Loyola University, where he was a professor of social welfare policy.

He was the editor of Public Housing in Europe and America.

D. Bradford Hunt is an assistant professor of social science at Roosevelt University.

John Hope Franklin is James B. Duke Professor Emeritus of History at Duke University.

He has served as president of the Organization of American Historians, the American Historical Association, and many more.
