Click here for unedited video of our "Documenting and Interpreting Superstorm Sandy" virtual panel held October 28, 2022.
This virtual panel explored some of the ways Superstorm Sandy is being documented for the historical record and interpreted for the public. Panelists included Professor Karen Bright, MFA, Department of Art and Design, Monmouth University; Molly Graham, oral historian, National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA); and Abigail Perkiss, Ph.D., associate professor of history at Kean University and author of the new book, “Hurricane Sandy on New Jersey’s Forgotten Shore” (Cornell University Press, 2022). The panel was moderated by Melissa Ziobro, specialist professor of public history at Monmouth University and project lead for Tracking Sandy: Monmouth County Remembers, a multiyear effort to document the impacts of Superstorm Sandy in Monmouth County via oral history collection and public exhibits. This was one of a number of events organized by Monmouth University in advance of the 10th anniversary of the Storm.
