Abstract
Description
In her March 2015 interview with Harv Thompson et al, Gen Lewis reminisces about her years working for various community arts programs with Robert Gard. Born and raised in Wisconsin, she reflects on opportunities for women during her working years and why she returned to Wisconsin after her husband's death. She also detailed a number of community arts initiatives with which she was involved, such as the reminiscence-writing project, Rhinelander School of the Arts, and Extension education. This interview was conducted for inclusion into the UW-Madison Oral History Program and the Gard Foundation's UW-Madison and WI Community Arts History Project.
