My name is Rick Brown, and I have extensive experience collecting recorded oral histories. I earned a Master of Arts degree in history from the University of Wisconsin-Milwaukee in 1995, with concentrations in public history and archival administration.
Over the years, I have directed or participated in oral history projects focusing on industries and organizations; the barber trade in Milwaukee; early 20th-century Syrian settlement in La Crosse, Wisconsin; families and friendship groups; and many individual interviews.
As a former executive director of the La Crosse County Historical Society and board member of the University of Wisconsin-La Crosse Oral History Program, I understand the big-picture value of documenting the personal past, and I look forward to working with you.
