About Us:

• Reel to Real Classics is a group that promotes dialogue on variety of social, cultural, and historical topics through the examination of classic film. It is coordinated by Lilly Ramin, Sociology Librarian (Public Services Division, Willis Library) and Steven Guerrero, Media Arts Librarian (Special Libraries Division, Media Library).
