One valuable way to save and understand the history of Indiana broadcasting is to interview the people who worked at our television and radio stations. We hope to continuously add new oral history interviews to our collection as well as bring attention to interviews in other archives.
In addition to Indiana broadcasters, we are also including previous oral history interviews that Mike Conway conducted for his broadcast history research projects.
