Return to Irondale 2013, Part 4 by Glenn N. Holliman An Oral History of Irondale, Alabama.... 
Left, Bishop Holliman, born in the Birmingham suburb of Irondale, Alabama in 1919, returned in late January 2013 for a talk with the Irondale Historical Society. While there he sat for a two hour oral history interview with Dolores Hydock, a professional story teller, who lives only a block from where Bishop grew up 90 years earlier. Dolores has made an audio CD of the interview which can be ordered at www.storypower.org. Her web site and talents are fascinating. If one is interested in Alabama culture, her work and other CDs are available at her site. Below, Dolores and Denise Tew Wight, president of the Irondale Historical Society interview Bishop at the society' museum in Irondale. Information on the Society can be found at www.irondalehistory.org. 
Below, Bishop gives a hug to Delores, a professional actress and Yale University graduate, after the session at the Irondale Historical Society. Denise Tew Wright, director of the Society, who kindly arranged the interview and talk, is on the far right. Denise is the driving force behind the preservation of the local history of the town. 
Below, Bishop and Denise stand outside of the Historical Society building. In the background, a modern building has replaced the old grocery store where Bishop worked as a clerk in the late 1930s. 
Below, the trains which traversed the town in Bishop's childhood, still move through the center of Irondale, a major switching yard for several railroad lines. This is the view from the Historical Society's back yard looking north.
