Abstract:
This contribution begins with my memories as a hearing American-Swiss researcher who began with research on American Sign Language (ASL) and afterward concentrated on Swiss German Sign Language (Deutschschweizerische Gebärdensprache, DSGS). The contribution includes memories of the first research team in German Switzerland: Claudia Murray Jauch, Katja Tissi, and Tanja Tissi.
