Audio Archives is an oral history recording project for friends and families. There is no substitute for the human voice. Audio Archives works to preserve those voices, recording the thoughts and memories of folks living ordinary and extraordinary lives. Everyone has a story. This project helps keep those stories alive for new generations. Recorded conversations among loved ones are edited and produced into a segment that can be listened to and shared easily with others.

Gretchen Sanders is a multimedia journalist in Austin, Texas. She also has a background in social work. Her experience working in public radio makes her skilled at finding a good story; her career in social work lets her know what questions to ask. Combine the two, and you get a darn good interviewer.   

Gretchen writes, produces and reports daily news and feature stories for radio. She also produced the StoryCorps Historias project for KUT News, Austin's NPR affiliate, in 2010. Those stories were part of a larger initiative to capture the voices of Latinos throughout the United States and Puerto Rico.  


Having a loved one's voice on record is worth more than gold. There's no getting back the sounds of a father's laugh or the nostalgic musings of a grandmother recalling her childhood. Gretchen enjoys capturing these moments for posterity.     

When she's not manipulating audio, Gretchen enjoys swimming with Texas Longhorn Aquatics masters team in Austin and writing for SWIMMER Magazine. 

Gretchen will interview a friend or family member for you. Or, she will facilitate the conversation while you do the interview. The audio is then edited and produced into a segment that can be listened to easily in one sitting.
