Local Photojournalist Documents Humanitarian Aid in Haiti


Listen Later

After three medical mission assignments in Haiti, local photojournalist and writer Ellie Bogue is showing a selection of that work. A little over two decades after her first trip, Bogue looks forward to returning to Haiti this spring with the University of Saint Francis' group of nursing and pre med students who, along with professional medical alumni, continue to help out at an orphanage and local rural hospital there. WBOI's Julia Meek invited Ellie into the studio to talk about the motivation for these trips, the scope of the collection and what it represents to the community, as well as her own life's work. WBOI Artcentric is brought to you by WBOI’s own Julia Meek and Ben Clemmer. Our theme music is “Me voy pal campo'' by KelsiCote. Our administrative assistants are Olivia Fletter and Keegan Lee. Our production assistants are Monica Blankenship, Steve Mullaney, and Sydney Wagner.
