If archives are tangible transmissions of personal and community knowledge through time, then tattoos have as much claim to the descriptor as board minutes or team photos. From time immemorial, people have marked themselves to transmit knowledge. Terry and Libby will discuss the genesis of this book and its investigation of tattoos and culture, community meaning, memory, social control, and gender expression. We're hoping for lively discussion, too!

Terry Baxter (he/him) has done archival work since 1985, most recently with Multnomah County Archives and the Oregon Country Fair Archives. His work focuses on helping community members connect with each other through both space and time and uses archives to build those connections. He lives in Cully with two jewells and is visited by his grandkids frequently.

Libby Coyner-Tsosie (she/they) has been an archivist for over 15 years, working in academic libraries, government archives, and museum archives. Coyner-Tsosie worked as an archivist at Elon University, where she built a zine collection and taught students about research in primary sources. She is a member of the 2016 cohort of Archives Leadership Institute at Berea College and is proud to have been held in love and community with a group of tremendous archivists and the late bell hooks.
