NMF&RHM Oral History Program

 

This list of oral history consultants is divided into categories based on the consultant's role during the time period when the prisoners of war (POWs) were in New Mexico.  Detailed abstracts of the interviews have been provided where possible.  The name of the consultant serves as the link to that person's abstract.  Some consultants responded to written questionnaires.  These people have been marked with an asterisk (*) to show that no transcript is available.  The written questionnaires are available in the repository.
