Oral and Video Histories

The Clark T. Sawin Memorial Library and Resource Center is committed to recording the history of the leaders in endocrinology, ensuring that the valuable contributions of endocrinologists are chronicled and made available to the membership and public. The video history program will ensure that the oral histories conducted by Drs. Sawin and Friedman as part of the Society’s History Committee in the 1980’s be available on new technology platforms and that new histories will be video-recorded on a regular basis.

If you would like to nominate yourself or someone you know to be interviewed for an oral or video history please email info@endocrine.org.
