About

Geographers on film is a collection of recorded video interviews conducted with hundreds of geographers between August 1970 and the early 1990s, including scholars who have shaped the discipline. The interviews highlight the rapid transformations in technology throughout the 20th century that brought about vast changes in people's daily lives and in how geographers conducted research. In this interview, Professor Donald Meinig, Syracuse University of discusses his education at University of Washington and early career, answers questions about his interest in social and historical geography, and the significance of social groups in America. Meinig feels that geography's strength is its inclusiveness and hopes that the field will foster all kinds of geographers.
