Richie Havens (1941-2013)

Three videos in honor of musician and activist Richie Havens.

The first was shot in 1982 as part of a national nuclear disarmament survey with the participation of more than 300 videomakers.

Next, from 1990, a short interview by Skip Blumberg for the PBS series THE 90’s.

Lastly, enjoy a performance by Havens at the 1991 Studs Terkel Toast at the Bismarck Hotel in Chicago from our extensive Studs Terkel collection.
