Abstract
"With Love From Edna" is a multimedia project born from a collaboration between Tony Barger of the Putnam County Public Library and JP Olsen, Director of the Pulliam Center. The project explores a dramatic World War I love story through a cache of letters donated to the library. It was funded by DePauw's Asher Fund in the Humanities, the Putnam County Public Library, and the Pulliam Center, and it includes significant contributions from students Brooklyn Cornelius '26, Kyungmin Lee '24, and Eliana Alzate '26. Laurel Tilton, associate director of the Tenzer Center, was also involved, along with New York City-based podcast producer Rob Heath.
"I'm happy with how it turned out," notes Olsen, "and I'm particularly happy that this is a truly student-centered project. The students were all huge in the website development and overall production of this project."
