Books by Max Hall

Fraden explores artist Rhodessa Jones's theater work with incarcerated women, known as the Medea Project. Balancing narrative and commentary, Fraden chronicles the process of turning the inmates' personal stories into public performance and investigates the possibilities for communication and social change of such combinations of art and activism.

Max Hall here chronicles the early stages and first sixty years of Harvard University Press in a rich and entertaining book that is at once Harvard history, publishing history, printing history, business history, and intellectual history.
