Here's the Pittsburghcentric info:
There are and have been many Pittsburgh experimental / underground film advocates / programmers - Elizabeth Raphael, Willard Van De Bogart, Sally Dixon, Charles Glassmire, Will Bogart, Mark Lewis, Bill Judson, Robert Haller, Bruce Posner, Bill Boichel, Jeff Armstrong, Michael Johnsen, Pat Shea, Gordon Nelson, Jim Mueller, Adam Abrams, the unknown programmer(s) at CMU in 1969 until 19??, etc... It's been fertile ground for over 30 years. (see Millenium Film Journal No. 3 Winter/Spring 1979 - Independent Film in Pittsburgh by Lucy Fischer and Bill Judson).
Sometime in April Anthology will be presenting a number of programs featuring films from Pittsburgh's avant garde film past. Robert Haller will be on hand as the MC and the author of a new book documenting the Pittsburgh scene of the 1970's. Sally Dixon is slated to be one of the many visiting guests. Give Anthology a call for the real details.

Don't forget Sally Dixon, who, I think, led the way in Pittsburgh long
ago.
Whatever became of Sally?
