Women In Print: Voices from the Feminist
Press, 1960-1985 With funding from the Radcliffe Institute/Schlesinger Library Grant 2010-2011 http://womeninprint.wordpress.com/
Women In Print: Voices from the Feminist Press, 1960-1985 is the working title of an oral history project that aims to collect narratives about feminist presses founded and run by women, between 1960 and 1985.
When many of these smaller operations collapsed after ten to twenty years, the stories of the people whose lives revolved around the presses as social and political centers were not preserved. Neither were the enduring legacies of the presses and their authors. I seek to restore these narratives. |

Columbia University Oral History
Research Office: THE SEPTEMBER 11, 2001
ORAL HISTORY NARRATIVE AND MEMORY
PROJECT (photo credit: Genevieve Long) Interviewer 2001-2003
|
Within the first year of the project over four hundred interviews were conducted with a wide variety of people who were affected directly and indirectly by the catastrophe. Two hundred follow-up interviews were conducted in the winter and spring of 2002, in order to allow those we interviewed in the first year to speak about the effects of their experiences over time. The objective of the project was to gather as many different individual perspectives on the impact of September 11th as possible, and to allow people to speak about their experiences outside the frameworks quickly developed by official media and government accounts. |

TOLL ROAD Interviewer 2008-
|
In 2008, I will record 30-50 life histories of toll booth operators in New Jersey and Pennsylvania. Rather than programming edited bytes-turned-docs on the radio, I propose to use transmitters at the side of the road, to allow riders to tune into these full-length life histories on a particular low frequency radio station. This project borrows from Oral History but also from traditional "sound walks," which are usually packaged as audio guides for tourists on foot; in this case, the tourists will be passengers on the highway. |
