GC Digital Initiatives Sound Series presents a talk on the Kentucky Bourbon Tales Oral History Project by Doug Boyd Ph.D., a national expert on oral history, archives, and digital technologies.  In this talk, Boy will discuss the Kentucky Bourbon Tales Oral History Project, a partnership with the Kentucky Distillers’ Association (KDA), is a multi-year effort by the Louie B. Nunn Center for Oral History at the University of Kentucky to document the history of bourbon in the state, and features the stories of the master distillers and bourbon barons from iconic distilleries that participate in the Kentucky Bourbon Trail® tour. The oral history project yielded the documentary “Kentucky Bourbon Tales: Distilling the Family Spirit” which airs on Kentucky Educational Television. Doug Boyd, Executive Producer on the documentary and Director of the Nunn Center, will discuss his role in this oral history project and how it was made into a digital archive and documentary.
