Historical Note

The project was originally conceived in 2000 as a television show, a collaborative effort which pulled together the Oregon Medical Association, Oregon Health Sciences University, The Foundation for Medical Excellence, and the Oregon Historical Society. At a later date the Oregon Medical Education Foundation came on board. Efforts were coordinated with Matt Simek whose Pacific Standard Television was to shoot it. A pool of 37 interviews was collected. A basic working title was chosen: "Medicine in Oregon: Reflections of Senior Practitioners."
