How to capture stories for memoirs about yourself, someone else in your Family or your ancestors.
In 1998, a television documentary, which was co-produced, written and narrated by Kristin, won a Cablevisio.
Named Oral historian for the highly accredited Vacaville Museum in Solano County, California, Kristin initiated and oversaw a three-year project involving over sixty Oral histories that resulted in a museum exhibit and the publication of "Solano\'s Gold: The People and Their Orchards." A newspaper feature on California history, "Echoes of Solano\'s Past," conceived and written by Kristin, appeared in the award-winning Vacaville Reporter from 1995 through 1999.
Her project management and consultancy services have been employed by business such as San Francisco\'s famed Buena Vista Cafe and Genentech Corporation.
Kristin\'s workshops on Oral History methods and capturing Family stories have been featured with the University of California, colleges, high schools, museums, historical societies, and private organizations.
Her clients have included notable American families and celebrities, including Best Actor Oscar winners and a Kennedy Center Honoree.
The end result is then carefully crafted as a narrative for an heirloom book.
