At the Annual General Meeting of the Oral History Association of Australia (Queensland Inc.) this morning I was surprised and honoured to be made a Life Member. I have been a member of OHAA for many years and on the Committee since 2001 as Newsletter Editor and also Secretary. The only position I now hold is Secretary and that keeps me very busy and that's what I need. I consider I am in illustrious company with some of the "greats" in the Australian oral history world and I am pleased to be now in that select group. I will continue to do my best to promote oral history as it is something I am passionate about.My main interest is oral history which is a means of making an historical record using the voices of people speaking from their own experiences. I have lots of other interests as well - book club, local history, playing violin, photography.
