Q&A with Griffis Intern Sierra Sherland
As our 2021-2022 Griffis Intern heads out the door, we asked her a few questions about her experience at OSU Press. For our part, our experience with Sierra was delightful. We will miss her keen intelligence and wicked sense of humor. We wish her all the best as she continues her studies at OSU, and we look forward to welcoming a new intern in the fall.

Books for May Day
May Day, otherwise known as Workers’ Day or International Workers’ Day, serves to commemorate the achievements of labor movements. May 1st is not a designated holiday in the United States, but an American event inspired international recognition of May Day. On May 1, 1886, Chicago labor activists organized a strike and protest to demand an 8-hour work day – something we take for granted now but wasn’t widely accepted until the 1930s after decades of activism.
