CALL NUMBER: T1317:0002
SUMMARY: TRACK 1: This tape is an edited version of T1317:0001 (above) that may have formed part of the radio program "Living Memory: Emily Carr in Victoria" (see T3240:0001). This version lacks the interviewer's questions -- and perhaps some of Mrs. Mather's recollections as well, since it is considerably shorter, focusing on Carr's art and its eventual recognition. [TRACK 2: blank.]
