Sage Foster (she/her) is an aspiring oral historian from Texas living in Brooklyn. She earned her bachelor’s degree from the University of Texas at Austin, where she studied psychology and American Studies. During that time, she co-authored a series of children’s books based on principles of positive psychology and child development. Some of her current research interests include friendship studies, spatial identity and placemaking, community craft, relational communication, and play. Sage is interested in the ephemerality of collecting oral histories, and loves thinking about the nooks and crannies of a conversation. She is excited to explore oral history as a mode of collective knowledge-making and community care. She also likes reading park bench dedications, collecting miniature things, making silly charts, and poems about food.
