UNLV Libraries launches digital exhibit on Howard Hughes the aviator

The UNLV Libraries announces the launching of a new online exhibit entitled
“Welcome Home Howard, or whatever became of the daring aviator?” The
exhibit draws from the Howard Hughes collections housed in the UNLV
Libraries Special Collections, particularly from the files of Hughes PR
director Dick Hannah. The exhibit focuses on Hughes the Aviator popularized
in the current Hollywood film by Martin Scorsese. The exhibit also draws on
unique unpublished documentation and interviews with Hughes.  The digital
exhibit is available at http://www.library.unlv.edu/hughes/.  This exhibit
can also be accessed from the UNLV Libraries Digital Collections and
Exhibits web page at http://www.library.unlv.edu/exhibits/index.html, or
from the UNLV Libraries Web and Digitization Services web page at
http://www.library.unlv.edu/wds/index.html.  For further information,

Collections, at pmichel at ccmail.nevada.edu or Dr. Brad Eden, Head, UNLV
