Biographical History

In the late 1960s, William Short refused to return to combat, served two months in a stockade, and received a general discharge. In 1986, he and his wife, Willia Seidenberg, began interviewing war protesters and taking their pictures. In 1992, the portraits and some text from the interviews were shown at the Addison Gallery of American Art in Andover, Mass. The exhibit was entitled "A Matter of Conscience," and a companion book was published.

From the description of A matter of conscience: GI resistance during the Vietnam war, photographs, 1968-1989 (bulk, 1989). (University of Massachusetts at Boston). WorldCat record id: 341367992
