StoryCorps in Atlanta

StoryCorps is partnering with Public Broadcasting Atlanta to record, preserve, and share the stories of communities in Atlanta.

Our mission is to provide Americans of all backgrounds and beliefs with the opportunity to record, share, and preserve the stories of our lives.

Since 2003, over 50,000 people have shared life stories with family and friends through StoryCorps. Each conversation is recorded on a free CD to share, and is preserved at the Library of Congress. StoryCorps is one of the largest oral history projects of its kind, and millions listen to our broadcasts on public radio and the web.

Online

Go to our reservation system by clicking on the “Reserve now” button above.

1. Log in to our reservation system. First-time visitors can create a free account. We will ask for your email address, which is used only to send a reminder when you make a reservation. We will also ask for a credit card number to reserve your appointment. We will not charge your card unless you cancel with less than 24 hours’ notice. Cancellation policy is explained in detail below. To make an appointment without an email address and credit card, please call 800-850-4406.

2. Find a day and time that works for you and your interview partner. Please remember, all participants must be 10 years or older. If there are no times available, please keep checking back in case of cancellations. You will only have to register the first time, so to check back you simply sign in and look for open reservations.

3. Pledge a donation. StoryCorps is a free public service, but we do ask for donations to help cover our costs and keep StoryCorps accessible to all. We suggest $25, but you can contribute as much or as little as you wish. Donations are processed at the StoryBooth after your interview.

4. Come to the StoryBooth and have the conversation of a lifetime!

Groups and organizations can partner with the StoryCorps Mobile Tour. Find out how to join our outreach efforts in the communities you serve.

Cancellation policy

There is no charge for cancellation unless you cancel with less than 24 hours advance notice. Because we are unable to fill that time slot on such short notice, we will charge $25 to the credit card used to make your reservation.
