Michael DiCamillo

 

Where did all the strikers go? In our latest addition to the Hagley History Hangout series, processing archivist Michael DiCamillo explains how a strike at General Electric paved the way for significant changes in American labor relations.

Hagley processing archivist Michael DiCamillo tells this story which comes from the Virgil B. Day papers, a new collection in Hagley’s manuscripts collection.
