Cultural historian
Frank Uhle writes about the fascinating people and stories behind beloved film and music projects, with an emphasis on his adopted hometown of Ann Arbor. A projectionist since the early 1980s, Uhle's devotion to film was catalyzed when he joined one of the University of Michigan's student film societies as an undergraduate. Membership in Cinema II provided a rigorous education in the movies and a warm, robust, and lasting community of fellow film lovers whose stories take shape across the pages of Cinema Ann Arbor. Uhle has shown films for various campus film societies, the University Drive-In, the Michigan and State theaters, and the Ann Arbor Film Festival, and along the way made experimental 8 mm films, helped archive the papers of Orson Welles, and served as proofreader for
Psychotronic Video magazine. He's also the host of a long-running radio program on WCBN that highlights Michigan music, and a frequent contributor to
Pulp,
Ugly Things, and more where he writes about film, music, business, history, and culture.
