Biographical Sketch of / Agency History

Dr. David L. Crowder was born in American Falls, Idaho. He received his Bachelor’s and Masters degrees from Idaho State University and a Ph. D. from the University of Utah. He began a twenty year teaching career at Ricks College in 1966. The oral histories were conducted by students in Dr. Crowder’s Idaho and the Northwest history class from 1973-1976.

Scope and Content

The interviews primarily focus on World War I and the Great Depression. The collection was labeled Oral History Project Number one.

The transcripts are arranged alphabetically by the last name of the person interviewed. In some cases there are two folders bearing the same name. In this case, each folder contains a different interview of the same person, conducted by another student.

Each transcription is filed with a release form and an interview record that contains information on the person conducting the interview, the person being interviewed, and the subject covered in the interview.
