StoryKeep, a firm that helps families preserve their histories through film, oral history, and curated archives.

We’re in early planning stages for a significant private family archival project in the New York area that will involve photographs, letters, and documents spanning multiple generations. We’d love to connect with independent archivists who:

• Have experience working with private family or estate collections
• Are skilled in digitization, cataloguing, and preservation practices
• Value discretion and collaboration (this will be a team effort alongside oral history and storytelling components)

If this sounds like you—or if you’d like to recommend a colleague—please reach out to me directly at jamie@storykeep.com and cc cezanne@storykeep.com

We’re still finalizing scope and timeline, but we want to start building relationships with the right professionals now.

To Apply: Please send Resume, references, LinkedIn profile to jamie@storykeep.com
