About Narrative Histories

Narrative Histories, located in the heart of Silicon Valley, is a small business established to capture people’s life-stories. So many people yearn to know their parents’ or grandparents’ stories, but don’t have the time to spend listening, recording, and sifting through the past. What a gift it is to have these life-stories captured -- a gift both to those recounting their stories and to their children and grandchildren! Narrative Histories enables these valuable family legacies to be passed on in a tangible way. As Narrative Histories’ founder and principal oral historian, I interview clients and create written and visual records of their stories. Narrative Histories offers a complete approach to the process, from the initial informational meeting, to the interviews with beloved family members, to the culminating audio recording, book, and/or video for the whole family. Clients have included a founding venture capitalist of Silicon Valley, the wife of an advisor to LBJ (the woman behind the throne), top administrators and venerable professors at Stanford University, a Pakistani woman (devout Muslim, English professor, and political activist), a Chinese woman (born in imperial China and a patriotic Communist), and many other folks -- ordinary people yet each in his or her own way extraordinary. With Narrative Histories, you can pass into capable, dependable, and caring hands this task you’ve been meaning to do. Whether you are the child, grandchild, or the person recounting his or her life, this book or recording -- and the process -- will be the best gift you can give to your family. Capture your family’s stories while you can; let them be told for generations.
