2009年1月27日,MHS图书馆出现了名人目击事件. 《og体育平台》杂志的莎拉·杰西卡·帕克 & 参观了我们的阅览室,并使用了我们手稿收藏中的材料. 我们已经保密了一年多,等待合适的时机告诉全世界, 但现在我们想让每个人都知道,这样他们就可以分享我们的名人经历!
莎拉·杰西卡来这里是为了拍摄NBC新剧的首集你以为你是谁?“这个项目, 改编自英国同名热门纪录片的美国电影, 跟随知名名人,因为他们的工作,发现他们的谚语根, 研究他们的祖先,试图更多地了解他们的家庭和他们自己.
During her visit Sarah Jessica registered as a researcher and followed all the rules of the reading room – although we did allow the film crew to follow her in, 这远远超出了我们的标准. 我和SJP一起在目录室工作了一段时间, helping her identify and call for the material she wanted to see and then brought the material to her in the reading room. 我们不能告诉你她看了哪些文件, 不过,你需要收听节目才能找到答案!
莎拉·杰西卡是一位热心而感兴趣的研究者,也是一位和蔼可亲的名人嘉宾. 当然,她对我们持有的与她祖先有关的材料很感兴趣, but she also asked questions about the size and scope of our collections and how we preserve our documents. 拍摄结束后, she stopped in our lobby to chat with a couple of students from Emerson College that had also been conducting research here and posed for photographs with them. She then stayed on into the evening for a tour of the MHS building and a chance to see some of our treasures. 在查看亚当斯家族文件的精选材料时我们发现3月25日, 托马斯·杰斐逊给约翰·亚当斯写最后一封信的日期, 是SJP的生日(只差了大约140年). And she enthusiastically agreed when a staff member pointed out that our portrait of Lieutenant Frederick Hedge Webster, 1864年在马萨诸塞州第54团服役时牺牲的, 与她的丈夫马修·布罗德里克惊人地相似, 谁扮演罗伯特·古尔德·肖上校, 也是第54届, 在电影《og体育官网》中.”
“你以为你是谁??在NBC首播 2010年3月5日,星期五 晚上8点.m. 莎拉·杰西卡·帕克那集. 在帕克的家谱发现之旅中,MHS只是众多站点之一, so be sure to tune in to learn her story and to catch the MHS library and reading room staff during their 15 minutes of fame.
