| The IU Digital Library Program in Bloomington has received a $147,000 National Leadership Grant to digitize and present on the Web nearly 18,000 slides taken by amateur photographer Charles Weever Cushman between 1938 and 1969. Cushman, who graduated from IU in 1917, photographed an amazing cross section of American life. His photographs document a wide breadth of American life in skillfully composed and socially revealing images that add color to the World War II era, which was primarily documented in black and white.
