Melbourne’s hidden history of the 60s and 70s

View descriptionShare

Melbourne is an ever-changing city, constantly growing and innovating. This is typically for the best until people are left behind, displaced or marginalised and invisible to society. But they weren't invisible to Alan K Jordan, a social worker and photographer, who used his camera as a tool to document the lives and struggles of those experiencing poverty and homelessness.

In this episode, we're joined by Susan Long, one of the Librarians at State Library Victoria. Susan has a passion for art and the social impact of photography, so she's particularly drawn to Alan's work. She'll share who Alan was, and how he used his camera to reveal the hidden history of Melbourne.
