On July 12, 2007, Stan Ruttenberg was interviewed by Helen Coffey about his involvement in the International Geophysical Year (IGY), particularly his work with data exchange and the establishment of world data centers. Ruttenberg discusses his early career, including his work with Alan Shapley and his role as a facilitator for scientific committees, highlighting his work on the creation of a submarine for underwater measurements of Earth's gravity.

On January 10-13, 2002, Robert M. Chervin interviewed Stephen H. Schneider for the American Meteorological Society Tape Recorded Interview Project. Schneider, a renowned scientist, recounts his early fascination with science, technology, and engineering, beginning with childhood experiments such as building Lionel trains and making soap. His formative years were marked by curiosity and a drive to understand the world, evidenced by his tinkering with electronics, mechanics, and even homemade rockets.

On September 5, 1997, Dale Kellogg interviewed Dr. Susan Solomon, an atmospheric chemist and senior scientist at NOAA, for the American Meteorological Society's oral history project. Solomon discusses her childhood in Chicago, where she developed an early interest in science, particularly through nature and television programs like Jacques Cousteau’s, which inspired her to pursue marine biology. She later shifted her focus to chemistry, finding it more quantifiable and elegant, eventually leading to her specialization in atmospheric chemistry.

On August 23, 2007, Ronald Stouffer interviewed Dr. Syukuro Manabe at the Geophysical Fluid Dynamics Laboratory in Princeton, New Jersey, for the American Meteorological Society's Tape Recorded Interview Project. Manabe reflects on his early life in Shikoku, Japan, where his father and grandfather were physicians, and his initial pursuit of medicine before transitioning to physical science, citing his interest in logical problem-solving.

On February 25, 1988, Richard Rotunno interviewed Dr. Tetsuya “Ted” Fujita for the American Meteorological Society’s Recorded Interview Project. Dr. Fujita, a prominent meteorologist known for his pioneering work on severe weather phenomena, reflects on his early life, educational background, and career in meteorology. Born in Japan in 1920 to a family of educators, Fujita initially studied mechanical engineering and later pursued meteorology due to its minimal resource requirements.

On February 11, 1988, John S. Perry interviewed Dr. Thomas F. Malone for the American Meteorological Society and University Corporation for Atmospheric Research. The interview, conducted at the American Academy of Arts and Sciences in Cambridge, Massachusetts, explores Malone’s early life, career, and contributions to meteorology. Raised on a ranch in South Dakota, Malone was influenced by his father’s practical interest in weather forecasting and telecommunication.

On February 18, 1989, Earl Droessler interviewed Thomas F. Malone at St. Joseph’s College in Hartford, Connecticut, as part of a tape-recorded interview project for the American Meteorological Society (AMS). The interview focuses on developments in atmospheric sciences and the evolution of the AMS since World War II. Malone reflects on his tenure as AMS President (1960–1961), highlighting the pivotal decision to rename the Journal of Meteorology to the Journal of Atmospheric Sciences, marking a shift toward broader scientific engagement.

On March 20, April 20, and May 14, 1994, Gisela Kutzbach and colleagues interviewed Verner Suomi, a prominent meteorologist and researcher, about his career and contributions to weather science, particularly satellite-based observations. Suomi reflects on his early life in Minnesota, his academic journey, and his initial work on weather-related research. He discusses his pivotal role in the development of satellite weather observation, focusing on the creation and advancements of the ATS-1 and ATS-3 satellites, which provided essential data for weather forecasting.

On July 13, 1993, Will Kellogg interviewed Vincent E. Lally in Boulder, Colorado, for the American Meteorological Society's Tape Recorded Interview Project. In the interview, Lally reflects on his career in meteorology and atmospheric science, beginning with his education in Brookline, Massachusetts, and subsequent studies at Boston College and MIT. He recounts his involvement in radar operations during World War II and later roles developing meteorological instruments, initially at the Friez Instrument Division and subsequently with the U.S.

On May 8-9, 1993, Earl Droessler interviewed Vincent Schaefer, a prominent meteorologist, at his home in Schenectady, New York. The interview explores Schaefer’s background in meteorology, including his work with cloud seeding and his contributions to atmospheric sciences. Schaefer discusses his early career, which was shaped by influential mentors like Dr. Langmuir, and his involvement in the American Meteorological Society.
