It is my passion for the human experience that twines in and around the facts and events of history that directed me to Oral History. After all, it is through Oral History, the stories of the individual, that we breathe life and emotion into the timeline. Thanks to technology, it’s easier than ever to capture the moments that time too quickly erases. Below I share a glimpse into Oral History and my work in the field. I hope that you will soon reach out to document your family’s stories, experiences, and background to preserve the past for the future! Books
Montgomery Creek Publishing has partnered with Apex Media Solutions, a full-service media production firm, to provide an Oral History Video Service. The service provides a seamless life story interview experience from the initial consultation to final production to preserve a loved one’s past for the future. Presentations Check out Presentations

My
fondest memories are enjoying a hearty Sunday breakfast with the family and
listening to my father tell stories of his childhood during the
1930s-1940s. I am forever grateful that I recorded my father’s
reflections. Now that he is gone, these recordings are more precious than gold!
