Changing Spaces: Hampden, Baltimore

Summary

Producer Gemma Hooley profiles the neighborhood of Hampden in Baltimore, Maryland. It's a pop culture landscape of pink plastic flamingoes, beehive hairdos, vintage clothing, leopard-skin purses, and cat-eye sunglasses. Then there are the annual festivals like the HonFest competition, and Christmas lights that you'll swear are shining through your radio. It’s not all charming nostalgia though. Join us as we explore the underlying culture of this blue collar community. The Soundprint documentary series features the best work of top radio producers.
