SUMMARY:SB: Developing an Oral History from Concept to Creation
DESCRIPTION:An oral history is a valuable tool in preserving the stories and memories of those who lived through interesting\, extraordinary\, and important times (for example\, World War II veterans or Civil Rights leaders and advocates.) An oral history can encompass a wide variety of groups and/or individuals who have a shared experience. G. Mark La Francis\, a long time professional oral historian\, demystifies the process\, breaking it down into manageable components\, from establishing a mission statement\, creating questions\, selecting interviewees\, achieving a quality recording\, time-coding and more. Oral history novices need not feel intimidated by a project; in fact\, they can feel exhilarated as they preserve forever an important piece of history. This workshop will last approximately two hours and include coaching on how to ask questions\, audio devices (and video\,) choosing an interview location\, and more. As a retired journalist\, college instructor and author\, LaFrancis has interviewed hundreds of individuals of all ages and histories. The workshop is casual\, interactive\, and fun. There will be plenty of time for questions. LaFrancis also offers follow-up advice. \nSpeakers Expertise: \nAs a veteran of 23 years (active duty during the Vietnam War era and Air National Guard) and as a writer for more than 30 years\, LaFrancis is professionally and personally qualified to offer what is a moving and unique presentation. LaFrancis has more than 25 years experience as a professional speaker and presenter\, particularly on the topics of creative writing and journalism. With the war ever-present in our lives\, his presentation of the experiences of the soldiers and their loved ones will enlighten and engage a wide range of audiences.
