Prof Begins History Project With Irish American Immigrants, Gerald F. Reid

Gerald F. Reid

An oral history project has been started with students on the lives of Irish American immigrants. With the help of students from his “Ethnography of Ireland” class, Reid records student interviews with Irish-American immigrants using high-quality digital audio recorders. The recordings and transcripts will then be archived with the Connecticut Irish American Historical Society and, hopefully, at the University as well.
