Marjorie "Margie" Rhodes allowed us to visit her home in Harrisville on Saturday, October 12th to share her stories of life in Harrisville in the 1900's and to tell us more about Austin T. Levy.

Linda Rivet, Research Librarian at the Jesse Smith Memorial Library, conducted the interview with Mrs. Rhodes, while I managed the lights and video camera. 

We were able to spend an hour hearing her first person memories of that time and the importance of Mr. Levy to this community. 

Watch for this interview and more in a 30-minute introductory film that will run on Rhode Island public television in late December, 2013.

Margie Rhodes (above) shared a few of her stories about Austin T. Levy, his wife, June Rockwell Levy, and life in Harrisville in the early to mid 1900's.  In the photo below, Linda Rivet (left) interviews and listens to Mrs. Rhodes.
