Megan Prelinger Biography

Megan Prelinger is one of the most popular and richest Historian who was born on September 25, 1967 in Yamhill, Oregon, United States.

Rick Prelinger, whose Prelinger Archives pursued similar goals as related to film, read two of her articles in the webzine/magazine Bad Subjects. They married in 1999. The Prelinger Library was launched in 2004 as the merging of their print collections and now contains more than 40,000 publications once thought to be of mere temporary interest: magazines, pamphlets, brochures and similar items that, said Megan, “contain micro-narratives, little stories that don’t always make it into books.”

In a 2007 Harper’s Magazine profile, Gideon Lewis-Kraus described the Prelinger Library as “the command center” of the marriage, “which seems as much a matter of cerebral cultural gambits as of romance.” Megan has “greater seriousness of the two” with “a flinty sort of temper, but it is not easy to say anything definitive, as she and Rick tend to freely exchange attributes.” Megan is responsible for the library’s unique classification system, which is centered on locality, beginning in the library’s San Francisco location and ending in outer space. She designed the system to promote the serendipity of “browsing-based discoveries”. For example, government documents are found next to their modern-day interpretations; satirical histories are shelved next to serious ones. “Subject-matter fiction is interspersed amongst nonfiction, and trade literature can sometimes stand for a whole topic.” In 2010, the San Francisco Bay Guardian awarded the Prelingers a lifetime achievement “Goldies” award.
