This book/audiobook celebrates StoryCorps’ ten year anniversary. Ties That Bind goes to the heart of the project’s great mission which is to share stories that are a testament to family and to the diversity of American experience..The first StoryCorps recording booth opened in 2003 in New York City’s Grand Central Terminal. Some 100,000 people have since recorded interviews with their loved ones in StoryCorps booths across the country. Their voices are recorded onto a CD for the storytellers and preserved at the American Folklife Center at the Library of Congress. The clip above showcases StoryCorps founder Dave Isay and highlights some of his favorite stories from the past decade. "It’s such a privilege to be able to tell these stories," Dave Isay says. "What I hope happens is...that it kind of shakes you on the shoulder and just reminds you, through all the nonsense, this is what’s important, this is what’s really important."
Amen...
