I’m Jennifer and I’m a librarian, archivist, researcher, and consultant with over 25 years of experience preserving and providing access to collections of literary, personal, and organizational papers, including the Norman Mailer Papers, the David Mamet Papers, and the Morris L. Ernst Papers, all at the Harry Ransom Center, the Richard W. Pound Olympic Collection at the University of Texas Libraries, and the Austin City Limits archive project at KLRU-TV. I am currently the Reference Archivist at the Austin History Center.
I am a founding organizer of the Austin Archives Bazaar and Lone Star Zine Fest. I currently serve on the boards of the Archivists of Central Texas and Austin Zine Friends, and on the Zine Union Catalog (ZineCat) Metadata committee. I also own and operate Town Talk Library and the Austin Fanzine Project (though these projects are currently on haitus).
Sometimes I make things or do art stuff. Check out my current project.
