SUMMARY:Exhibit: “Daniel Ellsberg: A Life in Truth”
DESCRIPTION:The UMass Amherst Libraries host “Daniel Ellsberg: A Life in 
 Truth\,” a physical and digital exhibit drawing from activist and truth 
 teller Daniel Ellsberg’s vast collection of documents\, photographs\, and 
 artifacts. The Robert S. Cox Special Collections and University Archives 
 Research Center acquired the collection in 2019. The exhibit is located in 
 two locations in the W. E. B. Du Bois Library until September 2022. It 
 begins on Floor 25 in the Reading Room of the Robert S. Cox Special 
 Collections and University Archives Research Center (open M-F 9:30 a.m.-5 
 p.m.) and continues on the Lower Level in the Learning Commons (accessible 
 whenever the Library is open).\n\nThe exhibit documents Ellsberg’s 
 90-year life as an academic\, activist\, defendant\, government 
 contractor\, Marine\, pianist\, Vietnam observer\, and whistleblower.  From 
 his middle-class upbringing in the suburbs of Detroit\, Michigan in the 
 1930s\, to his education at the Cranbrook School\, Harvard University\, and 
 the Marines\; his work as a nuclear analyst at RAND\; research for the U.S. 
 Defense Department in Vietnam\; and transformation to full-time activist 
 following his release of the Pentagon Papers in 1971\; the exhibit 
 illustrates the cinematic sweep of Ellsberg’s life in fine detail. 
 \n\nSelected digitized versions of material from the exhibit are also 
 available via the Ellsberg Archive Project website\, where it will be 
 accessible to the public beyond its physical exhibit space.
