The
Cooperative Nursery School Movement of Southern California Oral
History Project Collection
consists of eight interviews representing a
cross-section of parents, teacher, and directors who were closely associated with the co-op
nursery school movement beginning as early as 1947. These oral interviews document
first-hand accounts of local developments and provide insight into the educational
philosophies and practices that helped to shape its significance as a national movement.
The project was conducted by Rose Selesnick, then Director of the Crestwood Hills Co-op
Nursery School in Los Angeles, California, and a Masters Degree candidate at California
State University, Northridge. The interviews were conducted in the homes of the interviewees
in the Spring of 1976.
The collection is divided into two series,
Audio Recordings
(1976) and
Transcriptions (1976). Interviews are recorded onto 7
inch reel-to-reel tapes. Transcriptions of the oral histories are bound in a single
volume.
Series I: Audio Recordings, 1976
Series II: Transcriptions, 1976
