Regional Oral History Office - Kaiser Permanente Medical Care Oral History Project

About

The Regional Oral History Office is a research program of the University of California, Berkeley, working within The Bancroft Library. ROHO conducts, teaches, analyzes, and archives oral and video history documents in a broad variety of subject areas critical to the history of California and the United States. ROHO provides a forum for students and scholars working with oral sources to deepen the quality of their research and to engage with the theory, methodology, and meaning of individual testimony and social memory. The interviews are archived and constitute primary documents with people who made history - and who were a part of history - all realms of human life, for example in public policy, business, social movements, academic and community life, politics, the arts, science and technology, among others.
