Formal title:: Rebecca J. Miller Collection
Extent:: 4 linear feet
Date range:: 1976-1979 (bulk 1976-1979)
Abstract:: This collection represents Rebecca J. Miller's student work as a major in RISD's Film Animation Video department from 1976-1978. Miller discovered and revisited an orphaned 1940s Robert J. Flaherty film project documenting the work of RISD professor John Howard Benson (see RISD Collection Number 23.10 Robert J. Flaherty - John Howard Benson Film). Although the original film's two principal makers had passed away, Miller filmed several interviews with individuals involved in the original 1940s project including: Fisher Benson, John Benson's widow; filmmaker and MIT professor Richard Leacock, who assisted Robert Flaherty; and Gordon Washburn, RISD's former Museum Director, who commisioned the film from Flaherty and who also was the nephew of Frances (Mrs. Robert) Flaherty. Miller's film was unfinished at the time she graduated from RISD in 1978. The collection includes original film and audio recordings made by Miller, along with research materials and a typed student paper.
