Physical Description
1 photograph; b&w, 28 x 21.5 cm
History / Biographical
Wolfgang 'Wolf' Scholz moved to Kitimat in 1956 and worked for Alcan, first as a potroom spare, then a truck/forklift operator, and eventually in works engineering. He also served as a DJ at community events and for local radio stations.
Scope and Content
Photograph of Wolfgang Scholz writing in his workplace (probably at Alcan).
Notes
It is unclear whether this photo depicts Scholz at Alcan or at his job for the radio station; however, Alcan is more likely due to the lack of visible sound recording equipment or records.
No known date, but likely 1950s-1980s (no earlier than 1956).
