This is a free, in-person event hosted by the Orchard Ridge United Church of Christ on May 8, 2024 at 12:30 PM. To register, please email [email protected].The term oral history appears a lot online, so much so that its true meaning has become obscured. Professional oral historians, such as UW-Madison Oral History Program Head Troy Reeves, have tried to push back against this phenomenon through his writings and presentations, including showing examples of “real” oral history done by Wisconsin organizations. So, join him as he answers two questions: What’s oral history? And why does it matter?
Since 2007, presenter Troy Reeves has led oral history activities for the UW-Madison Archives. As head of the campus oral history program, Troy speaks to groups on oral history in general and on UW-Madison-focused oral history projects.
