In October of 1998, Rachel Schreiber and Andrea Slane (who had never met, but had been communicating by e-mail) decided to work on a project together in order to examine their (very different) relationships to the historical event of the Holocaust. It was decided that their photo albums could be the site for cross-examination, and the two invited Jael Lehmann to add a third perspective. In a triple-blind situation, the artists scanned images from each album, (except for Jael, whose grandmother was buried with her photo album) and sent them to one another. Each wrote about one anothers', as well as their own album without reading the others' comments. Beckham Dossett was then enlisted to assist in the design of the site.
