ORAL HISTORY INTERVIEWING
Bringing Life to the Past
Presented by Deb Hill and Kim Young
Saturday, 1:00 pm at the
Gilboa Museum and Nicholas J. Juried History Center.
Gathering reflections and life stories from
our neighbors can be interesting and rewarding
in many ways, especially what we learn about
our town and family history. Oral history projects
use the practice of good interviewing techniques
to gather primary source information about a
topic from a knowledgeable person and
creating a recorded spoken interview.
