In part three of Denise and Nancy Alexander’s story, Denise explains what high school was like in Sunnyvale during the 1960’s. “Growing up in Sunnyvale, I saw a lot of changes, I’d walk home from the bus stop, and especially in my high school years, I’d get off the bus and there was another orchard being torn down, and I’d run home very sad, the whole thing was before my eyes.”
This story was made possible through a Library Services & Technology grant from the California State Library. The goal of the Sunnyvale Voices project was to record and provide access to the early history of Sunnyvale as told by Sunnyvale residents. A compilation video of all stories recorded for this project, titled “Sunnyvale Voices: From Settlers to Silicon,” is available for checkout in the Library collection.
