For this year’s commemoration of America 250, we’re bringing you poetic monologues crafted from oral histories of Chattanoogans born in the late 1800’s and early 1900’s.
Interviews for the oral histories - archived at The Chattanooga Public Library’s Local History and Genealogy Department - were conducted by Norman Bradley, former editor of The Chattanooga Times, and his team.
Playwright Dr. Peggy Douglas of Southern Exposure Productions wrote the monologues.
