StoryLine is a platform that lets anyone call or text to record a story of what happened to them during the hurricane, in the hopes that the impact it had--especially on the most vulnerable victims--won’t be forgotten.
Rachel Falcone and Michael Premo are two producers with the national person-to-person documentary project StoryCorps, of public radio fame.
