Personal Historians
Personal Historians are dedicated to helping individuals, families and groups
record and preserve life stories, memoirs, or life values in printed form, in
memory-books, quilts, family cookbooks, audiotape, videotape, CD or DVD.
A Personal Historian is a neutral listener who knows how to bring out the
best stories and carefully preserve them. A Personal Historian's background
may be in another profession, such as journalism, education, business
management, broadcasting, video, film, graphic design, psychology, social
work or medicine. These extra skills enhance a Personal Historian's ability
to understand your stories and help you preserve them in appropriate
formats.
