RECORD

I am an experienced journalist and published biographer. In my project RECORD©, I work with book designers and printers to craft beautiful books that preserve personal and family stories.

In an era of cookie-cutter AI-generated ‘memoirs’, RECORD© is unapologetically human. I use personally tailored questions and face-to-face interviews shaped by deep listening to draw out the richest possible raw material – material from which I craft meaningful volumes that reflect my clients’ lives in all their uniqueness.

HOW IT WORKS

I start by discussing with the client what kind of story they wish to tell. From there, I create set of in-depth questions and prompts to guide reflection ahead of the interviews. (The number of interviews varies, depending on the intended outcome as well as how many people will be interviewed.)

We talk and record.

Once the conversations are complete, I take over, carefully shaping and editing the transcripts into a compelling, cohesive narrative. During this stage, I also spend time with the client selecting photographs to illuminate the story. The content thus in place, I collaborate with designers and printers to produce an elegant edition for the client to own and share.
