About the Oral Histories Collection

A majority of this collection is comprised of oral histories recorded with administration, faculty, staff, alumni, and other Johns Hopkins University affiliates from 1999 to 2004 and 2014 to the present. Interviews were conducted by Mame Warren throughout 1999 in conjunction with other research for the 125th anniversary volume Johns Hopkins: Knowledge for the World. Warren conducted additional interviews with administrators from 2002 to 2004 that were also added to the collection.

Beginning in 2014, additional audio and video oral history interviews of Hopkins faculty, staff, administrators, and alumni are being conducted under the auspices of the Hopkins Retrospective program.
