Andrew Cobb was born in the United States in 1876. At the age of 14, he moved to Greenwich, Nova Scotia, with his mother and sister. After graduating from Acadia University he earned a master’s degree in architecture from the Massachusetts Institute of Technology before moving to Paris to study at the Ecole nationale des Beaux-Arts from 1907–1909.
He began practising in Halifax in partnership with Sydney P. Dumaresq, whom he had met at Acadia, collaborating on the memorial tower, known as the Dingle, erected in Sir Sandford Fleming Park in 1912. Cobb went on to become known for his domestic architecture in Halifax and Bedford, as well as for institutional designs such as Dalhousie University's Science Building, Macdonald Memorial Library and the University of King’s College, constructed on the Studley campus of Dalhousie from 1928–1931. He died in 1943 in a motor accident.

Jim Clark is an award-winning photographer in Halifax, Nova Scotia. He graduated in 1971 from a Halifax Campus Community College photography course as the top student and began his career as a darkroom technician and photographer with Wamboldt-Waterfield Photography Ltd.
From 1971-1975 he worked for the Dalhousie University Life Sciences Audiovisual Department as a bio-medical photographer. He pursued freelance work from 1975-1978, while also managing a retail photography department and travelling throughout Nova Scotia and New Brunswick as a representative for Maritime Color Labs.
A year after returning to Wamboldt-Waterfield as a photojournalist in the summer of 1978, Clark became a business partner, acquiring full ownership in 1985 and changing the company's name to Clark Photographic Ltd. after Terry Waterfield's 1990 retirement. In 1998 he formed a partnership with photographer Gary Castle, and Clark Photographic became Digiscan Photographic, reflecting the changes in imaging technology.
Clark continued to work as a photographer in commercial, advertising and special events throughout the 1990s and early 2000s. From 1995-1996 he had a contract with Dalhousie's Medical Computing Media Services (later MED IT), and in 2001 he became the medical photographer and videoconferencing coordinator for Dalhousie, where he worked until 2011.

CKDU Radio is a campus radio station at Dalhousie University in Halifax, Nova Scotia. CKDU evolved from Dalhousie University's radio club, Radio Tiger, ca. the 1950s. In 1975 the station was renamed CKDU and began broadcasting on 610 AM in the Student Union Building via closed circuit and by carrier-current broadcasting in the university residences, Howe Hall and Fenwick Towers. Harvey MacKinnon was the first station manager and Stan Carew was the first program director. In its first year, approximately 40 students worked at the station as production personnel, news reporters, copy editors, public affairs interviewers, music programmers and on-air staff.
CKDU was granted an FM license in 1985. On 1 February 1985, at 4:00 p.m., the station began broadcasting on 97.5 FM, 24 hours a day. In 2006 the station increased its broadcasting power to 3200 watts and changed its frequency to 88.1 FM. The station is now operated by the not-for-profit CKDU-FM Society.
CKDU is mandated to act as an alternative to public and commercial radio stations, and to be a forum for diverse and under-represented voices, music and news. CKDU is committed to public access to the airwaves and supporting marginalized individuals and communities through their projects and programming. The station is a member of the National Campus and Community Radio Association, and in 1999 and 2011 was host to the National Campus and Community Radio Conference.

Patrick Christopher-Carter was born in London, Ontario, on 30 June 1945. He studied at the Ontario College of Art, the National Theatre School of Canada in Montreal, and he completed a one-year program at the Loeb Drama Center in Boston. Christopher's early career concentrated on acting and included performances at the Grand Theatre in London, the Stratford Festival, the Shaw Festival, the Manitoba Theatre Centre, and with The Grand Theatre Company.
Eventually, Christopher began to focus on directing and teaching. He worked as an acting instructor for the Ryerson Theatre in Toronto and then for Theatre Ontario's Summer School in Kingston. He came to Dalhousie in 1988 as an associate professor where he directed approximately twenty productions, including Cloud Nine, The Marriage of Bette and Boo, Working, Tonight We Improvise, The Art of Success, and Red Noses. He also taught acting and directing courses. In 1994 he founded Shakespeare by the Sea, the only outdoor theatre group in the province, with spouse Elizabeth Murphy.
Christopher retired from Dalhousie in 2005. To celebrate this milestone and his sixtieth birthday, Christopher and Murphy were married on 1 July 2005, after twenty-nine years together. He died shortly thereafter on 17 July 2005. Christopher had one daughter, Zoe.
