StoryCorps Austin: Sylvia Orozco and Rebecca E.C. Gomez

The StoryCorps mobile booth was in Austin this January, and we’re bringing you some of the stories that were recorded there. Sylvia Orozco is the director and co-founder of Austin’s Mexic-Arte Museum, and in the mid-1980s, she worked to bring Mexico’s traditional Dia de los Muertos celebration to a wider audience in Austin. While the StoryCorps mobile booth was in town, she sat down with her friend and colleague Rebecca E.C. Gomez to share that story.
