Description of the Project

The final product will be a glimpse into the lives of a broad cross-section of the people of Boston.

Participant Info

There is no payment for participating. Most find the interview itself a rewarding experience.

To participate, contact me (Conrad Cook) and set up an interview. It is ideal, but not always practical, to interview people in their own setting. We can also meet in public, or at my place.

Before the interview begins, the participant signs a release form. The release form gives me legal permission to interview you on tape and to include your interview in the product.

I will have a standard set of questions but the interview format is flexible: I'll ask different questions as interestingthings come up, and you are free to skip some topics to focus more on others, and to bring up points that haven't occurred to me.

Follow-ups. I may do a follow-up series later. Those interested can supply contact information.
