Curatorial Note:

Unlike those 1960s volunteers who shared memories with the Museum half a century after their Peace Corps experience, Sarah Mendoza participated in the Museum's Oral History Project just one year after completing her service. To date, she is the most recent Returned Peace Corps Volunteer to record an oral history. - Stephen Fagin, Curator
