Oral History Program Members are eligible to nominate their family and friends for recording an oral history. Interview subjects will have a chance to polishing their memories during an interview including scanning old photographs and resulting in a transcript. Often these histories relate to the neighborhood development or happenings, to friends, families, and the broader context of times gone by. Oral histories often create a record of the everyday events that shaped San Diego history, Conducting oral histories of residents is an enjoyable way for members, residents or former residents to pass along these stories and traditions to future generations. The oral histories will be posted here and original records will be donated to the San Diego Historical Society. Special thanks for Celeste Dunn of Tristany Realty for her generous donation and for sponsoring this program in its inaugural year through April 2007. Click here for a nomination form.
