Your family’s stories. Documented by award-winning journalists.

Have a loved one whose stories you want to preserve? Check out our offerings & reach out.

We preserve your family history, so your great-grandkids won’t wish you did.

Growing up, Katie Sanders and Nina Strochlic were fascinated by tales of the incredible lives of our grandparents.

In our careers as journalists, we have reported across the globe for outlets like National Geographic, the New York Times, Smithsonian, and Vanity Fair.

Now, with For the Record, we’ve created a service we wish had been available to our families.

It offers the ultimate way to remember your loved ones now and in the future: by watching and hearing them tell the stories of their lives.
