Pandemic Diaries: Julie Golia, Jeremiah Moss, and Camilo José Vergara

Approaching the third anniversary of the city’s shutdown, new archival, photographic, and literary projects reflect on New York’s early pandemic days.

Featuring:

  • Julie Golia, Curator of The Pandemic Diaries and Associate Director of Manuscripts, Archives, and Rare Books and Charles J. Liebman Curator of Manuscripts at The New York Public Library
  • Jeremiah Moss, author of Feral City: On Finding Liberation in Lockdown New York
  • Camilo José Vergara, photographer and creator of the Pandemic Diary

In 2020 The New York Public Library launched the Pandemic Diaries project, inviting people to submit audio recordings of themselves and their loved ones telling personal stories about life amid the pandemic. Collecting those stories for over a year, the project captures a moment in time, in the City and beyond, as told by the voices who lived through it. In honor of the collection becoming publicly accessible this year, join one of the project’s leaders alongside writers and artists whose own unique work grappled with similar experiences in the early days of the pandemic through different mediums.
