Our Guest:
Andrew Hall - Founder No Story Lost
Co-Founders, Andrew and Jeremy, are cousins. A few years ago Andrew and Jeremy realized that their parents and grandparents weren’t going to be around forever, and they wanted to write down their stories, memories & advice.
They knew they had something special on their hands when they printed beautiful coffee-table books for their own families. Though most families had the thought of doing this, they realized that almost nobody took the time to actually sit down and do it. Once it’s done, it’s amazing to have… and it was a lot of work to do it alone!
They lead our team of people who are passionate about capturing families’ stories, memories and advice.
We've assembled an incredibly talented team of interviewers, transcriptionists, writers and designers to make beautiful books filled with your own loved ones’ stories, memories and advice.
