Miami Valley StoryCorps interviews are the result of WYSO’s collaboration with StoryCorps, the national oral history collection project that visited Dayton in the spring of 2010 and 2014. All the Miami Valley StoryCorps segments consist of interviews between two local residents.

Miami Valley StoryCorps: Philip & Andrew Maurer

Philip Maurer and Andrew Maurer

"Ever since he died and I knew I would never see him, I’ve been rehashing all these memories. That trip was important because it was one of the few times I got to interact with this man who I loved, who loved me, who I had fun with."

There's a unifying bond between siblings who are close in age, and the Maurer brothers of Findlay, Ohio have only two years separating them. Philip is 24, and Andrew is 26. They came to StoryCorps to discuss their shared childhood experiences, and try to make sense of what they still remember.
