The Houston Arts and Media group has the mission statement of collecting and
presenting educational and historical information in the form of films, videos and
books. In June 2006, Houston Arts and Media began interviewing members of various
Houston communities on their memories of the old neighborhoods. The interviewees
came from all walks of life and a wide variety of neighborhoods all around Houston
and its associated counties. Houston Arts and Media titled this project Neighbor to
Neighbor.
A collection of compact discs contains interviews with a wide variety of individuals
from various neighborhoods around Houston, TX as part of Houston Arts and Media’s
Neighbor to Neighbor project. These interviews were conducted in order to compile a
collection of oral histories regarding historical neighborhood life around Houston.
This collection contains both an MP3 version of the interview, as well as a CDA
formatted version. In total, Houston Arts and Media donated about 50 hours of
interview digital recordings. At this time these recordings have not been transcribed.
This material is open for research.
Permission to publish material from the Houston Arts and Media Oral Histories must be
obtained from the Woodson Research Center, Fondren Library.
