The IRRI Pioneer Interviews
Conducted by Gene Hettel
Rice Today is publishing edited excerpts in
the magazine from
selected interviews with the pioneers of rice research. As one of
the activities to commemorate IRRI’s 50th, we have already logged around
75 hours in conversation with more than 35 pioneers (with many more planned),
ranging from those who first roamed the rice plots with IRRI’s first
director general Robert F. Chandler, Jr., to others recently retired.
Through 2010, Rice Today will be featuring along with the
interview excerpts occasional full transcripts (see Peter Jennings
and Carolyn Moomaw examples below) and
even video highlights (as with the Jennings interview) here on the Rice Today Web site.
