content: In a June 1984 interview (in two parts, dubbed 1986), Hall speaks of his childhood; military service in WWI; his travels in Europe; his use of tree bark, cement, wood, tin, and other materials; his friendship with Andy Nasisse; and his impression of an exhibition at Nexus in Atlanta. He also preaches from the Bible and comments on African and Southern Christian influences on his work and on the narrative content of his drawings. Slides show Hall, his home yard, and his artwork.
