GWS Undergraduate Video Montage - produced by Mari Rosas, Megan Justus, Tatianna Peck and Recollection: Performing Feminist Scholarship - directed by Heather Rastovac and Karin Shankar, PhD students in Performance Studies at UC Berkeley Recollection invites you to consider with us, the various modes in which we may perform feminist scholarship; we embody, we lend voice to, we lend silence to, we lend song to, we write, we repeat, we pass on, we lend rhythm to the relationship between women and their work.

In this video Q&A, English professor Scott Saul discusses his new book, Becoming Richard Pryor. The richly researched biography about the comedian is accompanied by a website, “Richard Pryor’s Peoria,” which presents more than 200 photographs and documents from Pryor’s first two decades in Peoria, Ill. Saul, who says he is especially interested in “how particular artists are catalyzed by the history they are living through,” worked on the book for more than six years.
