by KALAMOS BOOKS

---------- Forwarded message --------- From: Natalie Snoyman <nsnoyman(a)oscars.org> Date: Thu, Apr 18, 2019 at 7:39 PM Subject: ["EXLIBRIS-L"] Film Librarians Conference Early-Bird Registration ends Friday at 6 PM To: EXLIBRIS-L(a)LIST.INDIANA.EDU <EXLIBRIS-L(a)list.indiana.edu> Dear all: Just a quick reminder that the early-bird deadline for the upcoming Film Librarians Conference 2019 will be closing *tomorrow, April 19, 2019 at 6 PM*. The conference will be held at the Linwood Dunn Theater at the Pickford Center for Motion Picture Study in Hollywood, CA on *May 15th to 17th, 2019*. Please visit our website <http://libraryconference.oscars.org/> in order to view our full schedule and register for the conference. In addition to special screenings and tours, we are also pleased to announce our keynote speakers for this year’s event: *Larry Karaszewski*, screenwriter best known for his collaborations with Scott Alexander. They created the hit television miniseries “American Crime Story,” winning Emmy Awards® for the first two seasons, “The People v. O.J. Simpson” and “The Assassination of Gianni Versace.” Their films include *Ed Wood* (1994), *The People vs. Larry Flynt* (1996), *Man on the Moon *(1999), *Auto Focus* (2002) and *Big Eyes* (2014). Their work will next be seen in the upcoming Netflix release *Dolemite Is My Name!* Karaszewski represents the Writers Branch on the Academy’s Board of Governors, holds the office of vice president on the Board and serves as the chair of the Preservation and History Committee. Peabody Award-winning producers *The Kitchen Sisters*, Davia Nelson & Nikki Silva, share stories of film archiving and preservation from their new NPR series, “The Keepers” — stories of activist archivists, rogue librarians, collectors, curators and historians. The Kitchen Sisters will play stories, excerpts and works-in-progress including “Archive Fever: Henri Langlois and the Cinémathèque Française,” “Agnès Varda: Keep Faith in Art,” “Wim Wenders: The Entire Caboodle,” “Francis Coppola’s Film Libraries” and many more. Along with sharing their chronicles, The Kitchen Sisters will be gleaning stories from the community of film librarians in attendance. *Tom Duffield* graduated from California Polytechnic State University, San Luis Obisbo’s College of Architecture and Environmental Design only to discover that he preferred film design and art direction to working as an architect. He made his way up through the art department ranks by working on such films as *Blade Runner* (1982), *The Lost Boys* (1987), *Beetlejuice* (1988), *Edward Scissorhands* (1990), *Ed Wood* (1994), *The Birdcage* (1996), *Men in Black* (1997), *The Ring* (2002) and *Hell or High Water* (2016). Duffield is a member of the Academy of Motion Pictures Arts and Sciences and was elected as a Production Design Branch governor in 2018. Still photographer* Nicola Goode* holds an MFA from Otis College of Art and Design and a BFA from Yale University. A member of the International Cinematographers Guild and the Society of Motion Picture Still Photographers, she has worked as a unit photographer on numerous feature films and television productions beginning with “In Living Color.” Goode approaches the surreal landscape of the film set like a street photographer and finds cinematic moments off the set in her travels around the world. Her work has been exhibited internationally and is held in public and private collections. *Laura Karpman* is an award-winning composer and a champion for women in music. With a doctorate from Juilliard, her body of work spans film, television, concert halls, theater and video games. The four-time Emmy winner’s film and television credits include *Black Nativity* (2013), *Paris Can Wait* (2017), Francis Ford Coppola’s *The Cotton Club Encore* (2017), *Step* (2017) and *Set It Up* (2018). In 2014, Karpman founded the Alliance for Women Film Composers. In 2015, she became the fifth female composer inducted into the Music Branch of the Academy of Motion Pictures Arts and Sciences, and one year later, became the first woman to be elected as a governor of that branch. *Isis Mussenden* graduated from New York’s Parson School of Design with a Bachelor of Fine Arts degree in fashion design. She began her career at Joseph Papp’s New York Shakespeare Festival before transitioning to designing costumes for film. Her credits encompass a wide range of genres and time periods, including *The Waterdance* (1992), *Ghost in the Machine* (1993), *Matinee* (1993), *American Psycho* (2000), *Jay and Silent Bob Strike Back* (2001), *Shrek* (2001), *Shrek 2* (2004), *The Chronicles of Narnia: The Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe* (2005), *The Wolverine* (2013), *On the Basis of Sex* (2018) and *Velvet Buzzsaw* (2019). *Gypsy Taylor* received a Bachelor of Design degree from the National Institute of Dramatic Art in 1994. She worked as Catherine Martin’s costume design assistant and illustrator on the Baz Luhrmann films *Chanel No. 5: The Film* (2004) and *Australia* (2008). Taylor’s career includes work as both a designer and illustrator on films such as *The Wolverine* (2013), *The Babadook* (2014), *Wild Oats* (2016), *Gods of Egypt* (2016), *Alien: Covenant* (2017), *Mortal Engines* (2018) and *Mercy Black* (2019) and the televisions series “Me & My Monsters,” “Low Life” and “Oscar’s Hotel for Fantastical Creatures.” *Merie Weismiller Wallace* is a unit still photographer based in Los Angeles with a Masters degree from USC’s School of Cinematic Arts. Currently the president of the Society of Motion Picture Still Photographers, Wallace has worked on many of Hollywood’s celebrated classics, with multiple nominations for the International Cinematographers Guild and Society of Camera Operators Unit Photography Awards. Working with an eye for the magic in the moment, Wallace is passionate about the adventurous and collaborative aspects of filmmaking, the importance of archiving and the creative potential of unit photography. We look forward to seeing you next month in Los Angeles!

The online journal is available at *AHIF Policy Journal* website, http://www.ahifworld.org/journal-issues <https://ahiworld.us16.list-manage.com/track/click?u=a5a3cf4266af40851f5a6fd…> With this issue the social policy journal of the AHI Foundation takes on the formal name the *American Journal of Contemporary Hellenic Issues.* The journal is a forum for commentary and scholarship on issues of vital importance to Greek Americans. In his introduction to the current issue, editor Dan Georgakas writes of the pressing foreign policy issues facing the United States, Greece, and Cyprus and their neighbors in the Eastern Mediterranean and the Balkans. Georgakas states, “The foreign policy of Turkey under Recep Tayyip Erdogan continues to be a disruptive force in the Eastern Mediterranean, manifesting itself in designs on Thrace, violations of Greek air space, opposition to the unification of Cyprus, and military actions against American allies such as the Kurds. The first two essays in this issue focus on the international agreements currently in force that spell out the rule of law in the Eastern Mediterranean. Nicholas Karambelas, legal counsel to and a director of the American Hellenic Institute, reviews the treaties relating to this region from the beginning of the twentieth century to the present time. Theodore Kariotis, who was a member of Greek delegation to the UN Conference on the Law of the Sea writes about the legal definitions regarding how far off-shore rights extend with special attention to Greek islands adjacent to mainland Turkey.” Here is a list of the articles. - *The Treaties of the Aegean Sea: Clash of Nationalisms by * *Nicholas G.
