Inventory
Box 1: Audio and Video Histories Box 2: Other Recorded Media Box 3: Working Files
Provenance
BRMA, working at times with Mid-Columbia Oral History Organization (although it is unclear which oral histories they had any role in), began conducting interviews in 1991 through 2004. The digitized files in the collection appear to be from the working tapes, although it is unclear if the VHS tapes are also the raw (working) tapes. According to BRMA historian Burt Pierard there was a financial disagreement with the videographer where the videographer kept the finished tapes. Copyright or ownership for items in this collection remain unclear. The collection was transferred to Hanford History Project in March, 2016.
