At StoryCorps, there seem to be less than six degrees of separation. While recording interviews at the Atlanta ACORN office yesterday, participant Shani Franklin (pictured above left with her father Ralph) realized that the young woman who had called her father to arrange the interview was her friend from high school, Farhana Sobahn (below). Farhana is an ACORN Organizer and helped arrange StoryCorps interviews at the ACORN office for the past 3 weeks. After the interview, Shani and Farhana made plans to get together later that night. Just another way that StoryCorps brings people together!
