A Year of Sounds & Stories

Picture
The Stories

Get caught up in the net of history with these stories from our oral history collection. Featuring Hudson River commercial fishermen interviewed between 1989 to 1999, these stories tell familiar and unknown tales of the Hudson – from shad to sturgeon, pollution to protection, wildlife to waterfronts. For more information about this project, please read about everything Behind the Sounds & Stories. This page will be updated throughout the Year of Sounds & Stories, so check back often for new stories.

The iPhone app is here! Download it for free today!

Full interviews are now available on Hudson River Valley Heritage. Listen to them today. 

Here is a selection of our favorite stories from the collection. For the full list of stories, please visit our audio channel on SoundCloud. You can also follow us on YouTube and HistoryPin.
