About Us

Begun in 1973 as a one-year project of the Greenwich Historical Society, the Oral History Project was invited to Greenwich Library in 1974 by then-director Nolan Lushington, who asked OHP to produce books as the library's contribution to the town for the Bicentennial in 1976.

​Since 1974, the Project has been a permanent committee of the Friends of Greenwich Library. OHP is staffed by volunteers, and new members are always welcome. The Greenwich Library Oral History Project is a member of the Oral History Association and the New England Association of Oral History.
