StoryCorps
Description: WNYC is the hometown media partner of StoryCorps, an independent nonprofit whose mission is to honor and celebrate one another’s lives through listening.
The heart of StoryCorps is the conversation between two people who matter to each other. Since 2003, almost 50,000 people have shared life stories with family and friends in StoryCorps booths. But the experience continues whenever people listen to these stories. Listen to WNYC for excerpts of StoryCorps interviews, featured weekly on Morning Edition.
You can also record your own interview with a loved one by making a reservation at the StoryCorps StoryBooth in New York City. Trained facilitators will help you record your conversation and you will receive a CD session to take home. With your permission, a second copy will be archived at the American Folklife Center at the Library of Congress, so that future generations can someday hear your loved one's voices and stories.
