Lower East Side Oral History Project.
Biographical notes:
The Lower East Side Oral History Project is an ongoing series of interviews about immigrant life and work on the Lower East Side, many of them jointly sponsored by the Lower East Side Tenement Museum, or by Henry Street Settlement House.
Thirty-nine interviews were conducted by NYU graduate students in courses taught by Rachel Bernstein in the History Department; another 54 interviews were done by volunteers from the Workmen's Circle who participated in a Lower East Side Tenement Museum project documenting immigrant life on the Lower East Side. These interviewers were trained by Bernstein in two day-long seminars. All of the interviews are wide-ranging life-history interviews.
