Living U.S. Women's History: Voices From the Field, 1960-2000: An Oral History Archive is part of a larger project: The Emergence of U.S. Women's History, 1972-1997: A Model for the Gender Equity Movement. The purpose of the larger project is to document the history "of people who have worked on gender equity in schools, universities and university groups." The project was conceived and conducted by Mary Logan Rothschild, Professor of History and Women's Studies at Arizona State University, and Kathryn Kish Sklar, Distinguished Professor of History and Co-Director of the Center for the Historical Study of Women and Gender at the State University of New York at Binghamton. Funding has been provided in part by the Center for the Historical Study of Women and Gender at SUNY--Binghamton; Arizona State University; the American Association of University Women; the Arizona Humanities Council; and the Arizona Historical Society. The Sophia Smith Collection provided procedural advice in addition to agreeing to be the archival repository for project records.
The Living U.S. Women's History Oral History Project collection consists of 17.25 linear feet of audiotapes, videotapes and transcripts. There are fifty-one individual oral histories plus group discussions conducted between 2000 and 2005. The project documents the emergence and development of U.S. women's history between 1960 and 2000 by creating an archive that explores a new group of scholars who entered the historical profession after 1960. It explores these historians' professional and personal lives, their choices, and their intellectual commitments.
Final, edited transcripts are open for research with the following exceptions:
For partially restricted interviews, restricted pages have been removed from the public version of the transcripts. Electronic copies of open transcripts are available. All original transcripts are closed.
The audio recordings for unrestricted interviews are available for research, but all quotes for publication must be drawn from the final, edited transcriptions.
