Hello, A while back, I asked a question about the types of "products" emerging from oral history work. I used the information in a talk I was giving. Several other responses have come in since my talk and I promised to post a synthesis of the results to the group. What I was looking for in my talk was a listing of broad categories of traditional and innovative historical and interpretive works to make my audience aware of the depth and breadth of possibilities. This is the list I made, but I can't say it's a comprehensive list. 1. books: histories, biographies, poetry, published transcripts 2. storytelling cassette tapes, oral history tapes, audio books, and CDs 3. movies in various formats 4. training videos and books 5. museum and multimedia exhibits, art installations 6. cultural preservation and heritage projects 7. driving/audio tours 8. radio programs 9. educational materials for children and teachers 10. theatrical works -- plays, operas, drama, comedy 11. dance choreography 12. WWW sites 13. legal briefs and other law-related documentation Thank you to the people who responded to my question. Sincerely, Elizabeth Figa
