Audiovisual

Online

The Audiovisual series includes a motion picture, as well as several digital recordings, U-matics, and VHS tapes. The motion picture was created by Latino students at the University of Michigan in the early 1970s intended as a recruiting tool to encourage individuals to apply for admission. The digital recordings feature interviews, some in Spanish, with Perazza and other members of the Latino community in Detroit, a concert, and drives and walks around the city of Detroit. The U-matics and VHS tapes also feature interviews with members of the Latino community, as well as Perazza's work with social service organizations and a presentation on Rincón, Puerto Rico.

Autobiography/Biography

The Autobiography/Biography series includes an autobiography of some fifty pages, covering Steere's childhood to his early college days. The autobiography is rich in detail for the early part of Steere's life, giving a vivid account of rural life in the 1840's-1850's. Steere's description of his college career is less complete, but correspondence from family and friends helps to fill in the picture of his life in the 1860's helps to fill in gaps in Steere's later life, especially during his working years. Also included is a folder of "general" material, one on "Affiliations," documenting the clubs and societies that Steere was affiliated with, and a folder of "Newspaper Clippings," which perhaps provides the best information about the chronology of Steere's life.
