Since 1999, Brian DeShazor has brought the Pacifica Radio Archives collection to the attention of archivists, producers, scholars, artists, authors, students and educators. In initiating the Pacifica Radio Archives preservation and access project, he has helped preserve and make accessible hundreds of landmark recordings. In the process he has gained support from the National Endowment for the Arts, the GRAMMY Foundation, the Ford Foundation, the Media Resource Center of the University of California-Berkeley libraries, and most importantly from the listeners and supporters of Pacifica Radio stations. Also an innovative radio producer, DeShazor's award-winning productions, include "The Quentin Crisp Memorial Recording,” “John Hersey’s Hiroshima,” and “A Passel of Pomp and a Circus of Circumstance: Historic Conventions Coverage from the Pacifica Radio Archives.” He is executive producer of the weekly national radio program "From the Vault" highlighting historic sound recordings from the Pacifica Radio Archives.
