Stories from the Great Depression

In 2007 the National Archives at Atlanta hosted a remarkable display of photographs depicting the Great Depression. These photographs serve as the background for oral history interviews conducted with National Archives staff and friends about life during the Great Depression and about the man many saw as a savior, Franklin D. Roosevelt.

We invite you to listen to the stories about our families and their lives and struggles.
