Description
Stephen (Steve) Hayden served as a Peace Corps volunteer in Micronesia from 1967 to 1969 on an agricultural development project. The Peace Corps project group was huge but Hayden ended up alone in the small, self-contained world of an island atoll with a population of only 300 people. He became deeply involved with the community and worked with its elders to try to resolve a longstanding land ownership conflict. He returned beginning in 2002 to continue to help the original land claimants establish their rights. Interviewed and recorded by Robert Klein, March 9, 2011. 2 tapes (web streaming files combined into 1 file).
