Never Can Say Goodbye


The staff of the Banneker-Douglass Museum (BDM) wishes to thank Michael Janakis, Hodson Trust Intern, for all of his hard work this summer. Michael conducted research on numerous African Americans found within the Banneker-Douglass Museum Photo Archives, notably Alex Haley, Corretta Scott King, and Cab Calloway. He helped Archivist Lynn Waller preserve many photographs within the collection, and he gave a riveting presentation to the Banneker-Douglass Museum Foundation.

To tangibly express our appreciation, Lynn treated Michael to lunch at Galway Bay, an Irish restaurant in Annapolis, where he gave him a gift, An Unbroken Circle, a book about African and African American Christians.

The staff of the Banneker-Douglass Museum wishes Michael well in his quest to become an archivist.
