Abstract
JERRY: Well, first off, Ivor, I am really pleased with this opportunity to discuss life history research with you. I am very interested in this methodology and have enjoyed reading what you and other researchers have had to say about it. So let’s chat a little about life history research. One of the things that strikes me is that it seems to be part of a recent emphasis in research on what one might call personal narration. There are a variety of terms used to describe the different forms it appears to take: for instance, narration, autobiography and biography, story, oral history, and even action research. So what is distinct about life history? How does it differ from these other forms?
