Janet Morice and Andrew Starr, themselves residents of Paddington, were inspired by the work of Max Kelly (1935-1996) on the history of Paddington. In 1997 Morice and Starr decided to write a book on the social history of Paddington. The Paddington Oral History Project was begun in order to gather information for the book. Morice and Starr decided to interview in the vicinity of 100 people. The intention was to interview a diverse range of people. Beginning with elderly neighbours, Morice and Starr then made contact with the Paddington Society and Woollahra Municipal Council and proceeded to conduct interviews as broadly as possible using recommendations and references from residents and local organisations. Morice and Starr sought out specific people to recount stories such as the migrant experience of the 1950's and the formation of the Paddington Markets, and also interviewed people who had only recently become residents of Paddington. The age range of the interviewees is 14 to 97 years. 'Paddington Stories' was published in 2000.
