The San Diego Historical Society’s Oral History Program includes many interviews with San Diegans whose lives depended on the ocean and it resources. More than 50 oral history transcripts have been digitized for this project. The people interviewed provide a firsthand account of the rise and decline of the fishing industry in California, what it was like to work on a tuna boat or in a cannery, and life in San Diego’s ethnic fishing communities. Other topics of interest covered by the interviewees include boat building, skin diving, and sport fishing. See also Oral History Transcript

The oral history interviews include 26 sound recordings made on Dictaphone machine, tape reel, and cassette recorder between 1957 and 1999.
Original 15-minute Dictabelt and 60-minute sound cassette recordings of oral history interviews were converted to WAV and MP3 audio files using Sound Forge XP 4.5. The MP3 audio files are being presented on this site, and the WAV audio files were burned to CD-ROM media.
