  Chick Strand Recollections article

  "Chick Strand's Recollections of Canyon Cinema's Early Beginnings with Added Commentary from Chick Callenbach." Transcribed conversation between Chick Strand and Ernest (Chick) Callenbach, Gunvor Nelson and Diane [Kitchen?]. Date unknown. Mildred "Chick" Strand (December 3, 1931 - July 11, 2009) was an experimental filmmaker who contributed to the movement of women's experimental cinema in the early 1960s-1970s. Chick Strand studied anthropology at the University of California, Berkeley, and in the early 1960s organized film happenings with Bruce Baillie. In 1961, Strand established the Canyon CinemaNews, a monthly filmmakers' journal which became a focal point for the West Coast independent film movement and a precursor to the filmmakers' collective called Canyon Cinema founded by others, including Baillie, in 1967.
