The Survivors of the Holocaust Oral History Project was established in 1977 as a joint effort by Wright State University and Antioch College. Its purpose was to interview and preserve the stories of survivors of the Holocaust who settled in the Dayton area. Dr. Charles Berry, Professor of History at Wright State University, directed and coordinated the project.
Renate Frydman's Faces of the Holocaust Project took place in 1985 -1987, in cooperation with the Wright State University Television Center, with support from the Jewish Federation of Greater Dayton. A second round of interviews were conducted in 1994 and 1995. These programs were created specifically to supplement Holocaust curriculum in the classroom, and as a resource for Holocaust education.
