Once relegated to undergarment necessity, the T-shirt has evolved over the last half century to fashion trend, art form, political statement, and now collectable item. For artist and musician Perry Shall—a self-identified T-shirt archivist of over 1,400 shirts (among other artifacts)—his unique hobby is an unprecedented labor of love mixed with a lifelong thrill of the thrift store hunt. Host Dr. Melinda Lewis and Shall dive deep into the stories and cultural trends sewn into the very fabric of the ubiquitous T-shirt.Recorded August 21, 2018 in 3034 MacAlister Hall, Marketing & Media, Pennoni Honors College, Drexel University, Philadelphia, PA, USA.Featured Guest: Perry Shall (Artist, Musician, and T-Shirt Archivist; Guest DJ, WKDU, Drexel University)Host and Producer: Melinda Lewis, PhD (Associate Director, Marketing & Media)Dean: Paula Marantz Cohen, PhD (Dean, Pennoni Honors College)Executive Producer: Erica Levi Zelinger (Director, Marketing & Media)Producer: Brian Kantorek (Assistant Director, Marketing & Media)Research and Script: Melinda Lewis, PhDAudio Engineering and Editing: Brian KantorekOriginal Theme Music: Brian KantorekGraphic Design: Kathy Vy ChungLogo Design: Michal AndersonAdditional Voiceover: Johnpaul Golaski and Julia Wisniewski Copyright © 2019 Drexel UniversityTo learn more about Perry Shall, visit www.perryshall.com.
