The oral history and biography channel is designed, initially at least, to make public Garry Sturgess’s large personal archive of oral history and biography material and to attempt to organise it and shape it so that it can be of use to others. In addition, it is a site to be added to with fresh material. It is also a site of discussion and debate about the theory and practice of oral history and biography and aims to be a forum for review and discussion of new biographies written and oral histories undertaken and well as a place to review, analyse, discuss and criticise new works. A key feature will be to broadcast interviews with biographers (and interviewers) and their subjects about biographical (and oral history) works.
