Oral histories chronicle survivors
Thursday, April 14, 2005

On Sunday, April 17, from 2-4 p.m., a panel discussion entitled “Oral
Histories of Armenian Genocide Survivors: Going Online,” will take
place at the Armenian Library and Museum of America, Inc., moderated
by Dr. Robert Mirak, historian and author of “Torn Between Two
Worlds.” The event commemorates the 90th anniversary of the genocide
of the Armenian people (1915-1923) at the hands of the Ottoman Turks.

The panelists will look at the past, present and future of oral
histories by members of the Armenian community. Varoujan Froundjian
(curator, Armenian Oral History Archive, Columbia University), Roger
Hagopian (documentary film-maker) and Dr. V. Adrian Parsegian
(physicist and author) will be members of the panel.

Audience participation will be a major part of the event. A
reception will follow the panel discussion. Admission is free and
open to the public.
