| dc.description | Abstract: In this oral history, Robert Lange interviews Joan Hall of the Dictionary of American Regional English (DARE), a long-term research project recording the regionalisms of American dialect that was begun by well-known UW English professor Frederic Cassidy in the early 1960s. Hall succeeded Cassidy as chief editor of the project and saw the dictionary to completion in 2013. Hall discusses her own educational background and introduction to DARE as well as the internal structure of the project throughout its decades-long history, including its many funding challenges and technological advancements. In the second half of the interview, Hall is joined by David Simon, who served as DARE?s development officer during the late 1990s through the early 2000s. Hall and Simon detail the myriad of fundraising issues that the project faced and how DARE overcame them.
