Oregon Pacific Bank is
proud to announce the addition
of Robbie Wright to the bank’s
Board of Directors. Wright is a
local Florence business owner
with a strong background in
technology and financial secu-
rity, adding a wealth of unique
expertise to the board’s exist-
ing knowledge base.
Born and raised in Portland,
Ore., Wright attended Western
Oregon University where he
obtained a bachelor’s degree in
business management with a
focus in finance and a minor in
entrepreneurship.
It was during his time at the
university that he met his wife,
Stephanie. Soon after gradua-
tion, the two of them moved to
Salem where Wright started his
career as a sales and service
manager at Maps Credit Union.
From there he transitioned
into the technological side of
financial services, becoming an
expert in the infrastructure and
security aspects of highly regu-
lated companies.
Wright dealt specifically
with standards set up by the
National
Credit
Union
Administration (NCUA), the
Federal Deposit Insurance
Corporation (FDIC) and
Florence Area Chamber of
Commerce Siuslaw Awards.
Wright is very active in the
Florence community. He has
been a member of the Florence
Chamber Board since 2014 and
the Economic Development
Committee since its inception
in 2015.
Wright and his wife recently
celebrated their ten year wed-
ding anniversary. They have
two boys, ages five and seven.
“We are thrilled to add

“We’ll explore ways that
students can capture meaning-
ful stories with what they have
– a recorder on their phone, a
voice recorder or even a tape
deck recorder,” Anderson said.
“The majority of the class will
focus on the art of the inter-
view: the ethics surrounding it,
the pitfalls, but most impor-
tantly, how to get a good one.”
Part of the class will also
explore what constitutes per-
sonal and family histories and
help students look past a pho-
tograph to connect memories
to them and create a story.
“Recording history isn't just
about making a record for
future generations. It’s about
proving to yourself and others
that you actually existed in this
world, and having the opportu-
nity to say, clearly, what you
truly believe,” Anderson said.
The class is a new addition
to the Continuing Education
program and students are
encouraged to register early.
Anderson currently teaches
cinema studies classes for the
program and has a reputation
among students as an interac-
tive and engaging instructor.

AD CLOSE:
ing professional quality inter-
views is vital for future gener-
ations to understand what
makes up a life. Gathering and
presenting a life story, either
your own or that of a loved
one, can be a tricky process.
What questions do you ask?
What topics do you cover?
How do you edit it, package it
and present it? All of these will
be covered in the class.”
While the class will cover
simple technologies that can be
used to capture and edit audio
and
video
interviews,
Anderson said prior experience
with technology or recording
equipment is not necessary.
