In this short, self-recorded video, LifeBook Memoirs interviewer Margo offers a candid glimpse into what drives her work: a lifelong passion for storytelling and a deep belief that everyone has a story worth preserving. Filmed personally on her mobile device, the clip isn’t a polished studio production, but that is precisely its charm. It reflects Margo as she is in the interview chair: thoughtful, attentive, and genuinely human.
With a background in film and television, she brings a natural curiosity and a sharp eye for narrative to every interview. For Margo, helping someone tell their story isn’t simply a role; it’s a privilege. She has worked with people of all ages and walks of life: parents wanting to pass wisdom to future generations, individuals who’ve lived through extraordinary events, and others who simply want to make sense of the experiences that shaped them. No story is too small. As she puts it, an untold story can feel like a burden, and organizing one’s memories can be unexpectedly meaningful.
Margo has seen firsthand how LifeBook Memoirs’ process offers structure, comfort, and sometimes even healing. She also highlights the unique value an interviewer brings by helping tease out memories, spotting connections people may not have noticed, and guiding them toward a cohesive narrative they can feel proud of. Whether supporting an author through grief or helping someone recognize the themes in their life, Margo values the trust people place in her.
Margo’s sincerity and commitment shine throughout this lovely video. Ultimately, she describes this work as an inspiring gift both to the storyteller and to those who will one day read their words.
