In 1995 Mary Ann Villarreal conducted her first oral history interview. With a list of questions, a cassette recorder, and microphone in hand she met Marisela Norte at the Astro Burger on Beverly Blvd. In between the street noise, she collected a set of moving stories about the places that inspired Norte’s writings. A few years later, Villarreal used both a cassette recorder and digital video camera to capture the oral histories of the women who took center stage in her book Listening to Rosita.
