The goal of the Oral History Project, led by Board Member, Andrea Schara, is to gather information on the life and times of Murray Bowen. It focuses on how he influenced and interacted with others and ways in which he explained his theoretical ideas in everyday life.

The goal of The Murray Bowen Archives Project is to begin making these interviews accessible on our website.
