The University at Albany Head of Special Collections Brian Keough speaks at "The Kennedy Papers - Understanding the Creative Imagination," the University at Albany's celebration of the acquisition of the papers of Pulitzer-prize winning novelist William Kennedy, a collection comprising some 70 boxes of manuscripts, film scripts and memorabilia. The collection will be located in the University at Albany Libraries' M.E. Grenander Department of Special Collections & Archives to serve as a resource for scholarly research on Kennedy's literary career, and on the social, political and literary histories of the Capital Region. The program included a conversation between William Kennedy and the University at Buffalo professor of English Mark Shechner, a noted scholar of contemporary writing, who has written on the works of such disparate writers as James Joyce and Philip Roth, and has been a frequent reviewer of William Kennedy's novels.
