Among the most important yet difficult aspects of preserving history is to acquire the stories and memories of people who played a part in it. Whether for an edited piece, produced professionally, or just to get the record straight before recollection and individuals are gone, interviews are the critical building block. This workshop gives a context and foundation for being able to conduct interviews that will hold interest and inform later generations. Process, preparation, and follow through will be covered, as well as a number of examples from the audience.
