A California native and graduate teaching fellow in the History Department at Auburn University, Heather M. Haley holds a dual Bachelor of Arts degree in Political Science and History and a Master of Arts degree in History, with a concentration in Public History from Texas State University. She has a penchant for conducting oral histories including the initial research, interview process, and concluding transcription so that the inclusion of oral history creates a more thorough and personal documentation of historical events. Her Master’s thesis, entitled “Strategic Surprise: The Dispersal of Agent Orange in Vietnam and Korea in the late-1960s,” was well-received by The College of Liberal Arts, in part, due to the inclusion of such narratives and earned the Outstanding Master’s Thesis Award in the Humanities and Fine Arts.
