Description
The following is a partial transcript of the interview held with Clemmie Barry as part of the collection on trade union and
left wing women. There was little preparation outside of the sending of a chronological outline which Ms. Barry proceeded
to follow throughout the interview. She was sent more specific questions prior to each session. The questions were not particularly
perceptive and the focus was basically on her life and her role as an organizer for the Amalgamated Clothing Workers of America.
Background
Ms. Barry was born August 24, 1901, at the town of Edgar, Clay County, Nebraska. She now lives in Kentfield, California in
an apartment filled with growing, healthy plants, excellent prints of good artists, tons of books, and various mementoes of
Dick Barry's trips made when he was a ship's officer."
