Show Notes
Since March 2020, most of us have a deeper grasp of who is an “essential worker.” The Baltimore Museum of Industry is featuring a show about those who are indispensable to our young people: Baltimore City school food-service workers. Like Sheila Alston, who helped feed students for more than 30 years:
“We are part of the learning process with the kids. Because a child cannot learn if they’re hungry.”
We learn more about the audio-visual exhibit from the B-M-I’s director of interpretation Beth Maloney, and from photographer J.M. Giordano who created the black and white portraits:
“These are people who do a fantastically important job, so I wanted to make them look like superheroes almost.”
