Part of From the Field.

From the Field is a selection of WNYC news reporter field recordings made between 2000-2008. Typically, the NYPR Archives does not post raw, unedited, and unpublished materials like these. The items selected (with audio) for the first three pages of From the Field were chosen to highlight and help illustrate a more extensive collection of field recordings entries that follow (without audio). They were digitized and cataloged with the generous support of the Leon Levy Foundation and the NY Metro Library Council.

The project includes 1,278 recordings, which focus primarily on diverse and underrepresented groups and subjects, more readily available to our producers and researchers. Again, the collection's complete listing may be found following the items with audio.
