The Southern Oral History Program collects interviews with Southerners who have made significant contributions to a variety of fields and interviews that will render historically visible those whose experience is not reflected in traditional written sources. The Southern Historical Collection is the repository for oral histories collected by the SOHP. Information about these oral histories can be found in the SOHP Collection Interview Database. Additionally, audio and transcripts of a select group of oral histories have been digitized by Documenting the American South.
