Scope and content
The series provides information on Brian McKenna’s journalistic career, from its beginning as reporter for the Loyola News in the 1960s to his regular writings for The Montreal Star from 1967 to 1985, where he contributed especially as parliamentary correspondent in Ottawa and on the coverage of Expo ‘67 in Montreal. The series also contains articles McKenna contributed to various magazines and The Canadian Encyclopedia, and book reviews, as well as research material and the manuscript for his book on Montreal mayor Jean Drapeau, published in 1981.
The series is organized into the following subseries:
• B1 Loyola News
• B2 The Montreal Star
• B3 Magazine and encyclopedia articles.
• B4 Jean Drapeau - book.
The series contains newspaper clippings, newspapers (among others several issues of Loyola News), research material, correspondence, and notes, but also photographs, drawings, proof prints, drafts, and a printed copy of McKenna’s book Jean Drapeau, and a replica of the satellite Sputnik from the United States Pavilion at Expo 67.
