Dave Isay, Founder, StoryCorps

MacArthur Genius Dave Isay started StoryCorps in 2003 — it's an oral history project that has everyday people interview each other about their lives. NPR listeners often say they start crying every time they hear one of the stories drawn from these interviews. NJN is partnering with Storycorps to bring a MobileBooth to Trenton in September, giving New Jerseyans a chance to tell their stories. In anticipation, State of the Arts producer Susan Wallner talks with Dave Isay about the meaning and purpose of StoryCorps.
