Why Not Hire Some National Chain Video Service?
Ann does all her own interviews, and does not hire sales people. Her extensive professional expertise puts her subject at ease; knowing when to be silent to allow the interviewee time to reflect, and when and how to redirect the interview so it flows smoothly.
I am deeply grateful to Ann Smith for her highly professional services. I can personally attest to the sensitive, conscientious, and respectful biographical interviews she did with my father. I cannot overstate how precious and fascinating the tapes and transcripts are to me and my family. I highly recommend her services”

Life Stories Remembered is a wonderful opportunity to have a loved one share their life story for family and future generations. Ann Smith kindly and respectfully conducts interviews and has the ability to allow your loved one to share childhood memories, school experiences, relationships and life challenges. Preserving your loved ones legacy is a gift to your loved one and also to your family. My family learned many interesting highlights of my dad’s life that he felt comfortable sharing and reliving with Ann. Many things he spoke of we learned of for the first time. Truly a treasure for family! Thank you Ann!

Ann interviewed both my mother and me at separate times and about 8 years apart for Life Stories Remembered. After my mother passed away I re-listened to her CD recently. It was amazingly wonderful to hear her voice again as she recounted her memories. It was simply priceless–like she was right next to me. I had heard many of her stories before throughout the years, but I always learn something new when I listen to her CD. My experience sharing my own memories with Ann several months ago was quite special, but in a different way. Ann is an astute and compassionate interviewer who carefully elicits memories that I’m sure my daughter and future grandchildren will be blessed to listen to . She is very well-prepared and professional in her approach. I think anyone who cares about their own legacy and about their family’s future generations will benefit from this experience. In addition, my mother was the sister of the internationally renown artist, ROY LICHTENSTEIN, and her Life Stories Remembered interview is now part of the ROY LICHTENSTEIN FOUNDATION.

As I entered my sixth decade, in anticipation of experiencing retirement and a significant life cycle event, I used the Life Stories Remembered process to help me positively anticipate a future with unknown possibilities. Preparing for the interview questions gave me the time and motivation to reflect on my life to that point, and consider what my future might bring. It was a life reflection process that did what I hoped, plus left my documented reflections as a legacy for my family.

Our Life Stories Remembered videos are especially precious to have now that my father has passed away. We are forever grateful to Ann for the service she provides and the sensitive manner in which she conducted the interview. Ann interviewed my parents years ago. When our father was ill and could no longer communicate we finally watched them. It is comforting, touching and enlightening to be able to see and hear our father speak about his life and it was very helpful as our family collaborated together to write his eulogy. Thank you Ann for this everlasting treasure.
