Oscar Shaftel and the Menace of McCarthyism

This digital exhibit was designed by Annie Tummino, Head of Special Collections and Archives, Queens College Library, in fall 2024. Dean Savage (Queens College Professor of Sociology) and Ann Shaftel (daughter of Oscar Shaftel) served as advisors on the project. The exhibit was created using the Scalar software.
