Legacy Oral History Project
LEGACY was founded in September, 1988, by Jeff Friedman. Jeff is a performer and choreographer and, at that time, a member of the AIDS Response Committee, a project of Dance Bay Area, the San Francisco Bay Area dance community's service and advocacy organization. The Committee recognized that all the arts disciplines had suffered a severe loss of creative individuals during the AIDS health crisis, with subsequent losses of personal experiences and observations of important events, trends and periods of history. As a temporal art form which resists print documentation in the form of print texts or scores, dance is particularly vulnerable to the loss of this primary historical material.
Practicing Oral History with Military and War Veterans
Practicing Oral History with Military and War Veterans focuses predominantly on conducting oral history with men and women of recent wars and military conflicts. The book provides a structured methodology for building interest and trust among veterans to conduct interviews, design oral history projects, and archive and use these oral history interviews. It includes background on the evolution of veterans oral history, the nuts and bolts of interviewing, ethical guidelines, procedures, and the overall value of veterans oral history. The methodology emphasizes how memory evolves over the years - when a veteran becomes more distant from the events of war, the experiences become individualized a...
Robert Rauschenberg
Robert Rauschenberg (1925–2008) was a breaker of boundaries and a consummate collaborator. He used silk-screen prints to reflect on American promise and failure, melded sculpture and painting in works called combines, and collaborated with engineers and scientists to challenge our thinking about art. Through collaborations with John Cage, Merce Cunningham, and others, Rauschenberg bridged the music, dance, and visual-art worlds, inventing a new art for the last half of the twentieth century. Robert Rauschenberg is a work of collaborative oral biography that tells the story of one of the twentieth century’s great artists through a series of interviews with key figures in his life—family...

Preserving Sports Legacies
The central question of this thesis is: How (and why) do we preserve sports legacies? Based on my research and experiences as the project coordinator for the 1968 U.S. Olympic Team Oral History Project at the H.J. Lutcher Stark Center for Physical Culture and Sports, this thesis examines the social meanings of sports legacies and the rationale behind their preservation. I propose that sports legacies are located at the intersection of culture, memory and history; at the same time, on an individual level, sports legacies are also a form of symbolic immortality. This thesis conceptualizes sports legacies as contested terrain in which individuals and communities engage in continual negotiations...
