Historical Note

UJA-Federation of New York's Oral History Project was started in 1981 by the Federation of Jewish Philanthropies of New York. Upon the merger in 1986 of Federation with UJA, the project was continued under the auspices of UJA-Federation of New York. The project was modeled on the oral history programs at other organizations, and in consultation with the William E. Wiener Oral History Library at the American Jewish Committee. It eventually grew to include over 200 oral histories, many shared with the oral history programs of other Jewish organizations because of overlapping histories, donors and leaders, and to encourage wider access to these materials. Affiliations in addition to the American Jewish Committee include the oral history programs at the Jewish Museum, the 92^nd Street Y and the New York Association for New Americans (NYANA).

According to the most recently published catalog, "The Oral History Collection 2001", the purpose of the project was "to record the history of this organization through taped memoirs of volunteer and professional leaders whose lives influenced and were influenced by UJA-Federation." The project documented the American Jewish experience in the field of Jewish communal work in general and, in particular, gave an historical perspective on the activities of UJA-Federation and its agencies in the United States and in Israel.

Many of those interviewed were involved in the work of more than one of these agencies, or in other Jewish organizations in New York, creating a complex web of leadership throughout the organized New York Jewish community. The interviews describe activities, events, attitudes, motivation and emotional involvement in Jewish communal life over more than 60 years, encompassing a considerable part of the 20^th century.

The tapes were transcribed verbatim in typewritten form, and the transcripts were sent for review to the interviewees. The approved copy was kept as an official transcript of the Oral History Project and was made available (sometimes upon certain conditions) for researchers and the general public.

Volunteer leadership and professional staff were recruited and interviewed, some repeatedly, until their stories were captured more completely. Interviews were generally conducted after active involvement had ended, when perspective on their contributions would have been possible. Interviewers were hand-picked and carefully trained to master the technical issues of recording an oral history, as well as learning how to competently plan and direct an interview. As Nicki Tanner, the chair of the Oral History Project, worded it in her correspondence, she sought interviewers who could be "active listeners". Interviews were carefully edited and rights authorizations and releases were carefully sought and tracked.

Updated catalogs were published regularly through 2001. The Oral History Project was active until 2004.

Scope and Content Note

The Oral History Project series includes primarily the sound recordings and typed transcripts of the interviews conducted as part of the Oral History Project. For preservation reasons as well as to increase access, both the sound recordings and transcripts have been digitized during the processing of this collection. When allowed by copyright, the digital version is accessible by clicking through from this finding aid; if only the paper transcript is available because of access restrictions, that is indicated in the finding aid as well.

A typical interview transcript includes the date(s) of the interview, the names of both interviewee and interviewer, the authority under which the project was implemented (FJP or AJC, for example) a photograph of the interviewee and a signed release form. The interview generally includes a chronological narrative prompted by interviewer's questions, from the early life and family to the current activities of an interviewee. The topics covered by the interviews include a wide range of events and experiences, from pre-World War I schools in New York and the deprivations of the Great Depression to activities during World War II, the post-war flourishing of Jewish communal organizations in New York, and the Soviet Jewish immigration to the United States and Israel in the 1980s and 1990s.

Also included in the series are the administrative files for the project, separated into two Sub-Subseries: Subject Files, the administrative files for the project office including the files of Nicki Tanner, chair of the project; and Work Files, one for each interviewee as well as for people where interviews were planned but did not ultimately take place. The Subject files include information on the origins of the program, the search for and training of interviewers, and the search for the right people to interview. An enormous amount of time and energy was spent on the pursuit of signed releases, preferably without restrictions, and edited transcripts, and this is reflected in the Subject files. Work files differ by interviewee, but may contain correspondence, first drafts of transcripts, edited transcripts and signed releases.

Included among the interviews are some from affiliated oral history collections, among which transcripts were shared. This shared material includes transcripts, and in some cases cassette tapes, of interviews conducted by these outside organizations. Access to this material has been determined according to the specific interview restrictions and the existence of signed release forms. Please note the following:

American Jewish Committee (AJC) interviews in the collection are in all cases in addition to UJA-Federation interviews of the same leaders; the AJC transcripts have been retained in the paper files but are not available digitally. The full AJC oral history collection was transferred in 1990 to the New York Public Library, and should be available through www.nypl.org. The 11 AJC interviewees are: Nathan C. Belth, Irma Bloomingdale, Elinor Guggenheimer, Dr. Maurice B. Hexter, Joseph Hofheimer, Joan L. Jacobson, Frederick P. Rose, Theodore H. Silbert, Judge Caroline K. Simon, Dr. John Slawson and Laurence A. Tisch.

NYANA interviews for Geoffrey Chin, Pauline Falk, Sylvia Friedman and Gary Zucker, in some cases interviews conducted under the auspices of both NYANA and UJA-Federation, are available in digital form.

Arrangement

Subgroup V: Oral History Project is arranged into three series.

Series 1: Administration is arranged into two Subseries. Subseries a: Subject Files contains information on the background of the project, affiliations with related oral history programs at other organizations including the sharing of interviews and transcripts, selection and training of interviewers, selection of interviewees and releases from both the interviewers and the interviewees. This Subseries is arranged alphabetically by subject. Subseries b: Work Files contains the administrative files for each of the interviewees - correspondence, edited and unedited transcripts, and some restriction information. Some Work files exist where interviews were planned but never occurred. This Subseries is arranged alphabetically by last name of interviewee.

Series 2: Transcripts are the edited paper copies of the interviews. Housed with most of the transcripts are photographs of the interviewees as well as the release with permission to make available, and in some cases back-up documentation to enhance the information contained within the transcript. This Series is arranged alphabetically by last name of interviewee.

Series 3: Audio-Visual and other formats is arranged into 2 Subseries. Subseries a: Microfiche, contains microfiche for most of the interviews considered "open" in 2001, and is retained off-site as a preservation format (i.e. not for access) only. Subseries b: Cassettes contains the original cassette sound recordings of the interviews, also retained as a preservation format only. This Series is arranged alphabetically by last name of interviewee.

Restrictions

Access Restrictions

Nicki Newman Tanner, the Chairman of the Oral History Project, worked diligently with interviewers and interviewees to create an edited transcript from a recorded oral history and then acquire a written release for the edited transcript from the participants. Permission and access to the digitized version of the oral histories and transcripts is based on Tanner's ability to coordinate the editing of the transcript of the oral histories and acquire the release from the participants.

A vast majority of the digitized audio recordings and transcripts are available online. As with any of American Jewish Historical Society's archival material, users must apply in writing for permission to quote, reproduce or otherwise publish manuscript materials found in this collection. However, in some cases, limitations on access to the digitized versions of a few specific oral histories or transcripts are more stringent and users should pay special attention to these restrictions when seeking permission to cite or publish excerpts of the interviews. Moreover, where there is no audio recording available or the recording is restricted, users are invited to view the transcript in the Reading Room of the Center for Jewish History.

The collection is open to all researchers by permission of the Director of Library and Archives of the American Jewish Historical Society, except items that are restricted due to their fragility.

Given the size of the archival collection, a significant portion of the collection is being housed at an off-site storage location, within a climate and humidity controlled environment. Please be advised that you will need to request this material at least forty-eight (48) hours in advance to use the collection in the Lillian Goldman Reading Room. For further information and to make an appointment to use this collection, please email reference@ajhs.org.

Use Restrictions

Processing Information

A set of the UJA-Federation oral history transcripts and cassette tapes considered "open" in 2004 were transferred at that time to the American Jewish Historical Society (AJHS). In 2011 the remaining oral history materials were transferred to AJHS as part of a larger transfer of UJA-Federation of New York archival materials; these 2 oral history collections have been integrated and the results of this integration and the digitization from 2011-2012 described in the Scope and Content note are reflected in the description here of this series.

The goal was to make as many interviews as possible available digitally, in the hope that these valuable stories would reach a wider audience, both scholarly and general interest; the interviews should prove of interest to family historians as well. All sound recordings and transcripts have been digitized for preservation purposes, with only those without release restrictions being made available online. Other interviews may be read in person at the Center for Jewish History.
