Shirley Scott
Shirley Scott has lived her entire life in Washougal. In this conversation with Barb Seaman, she talks about growing up with a “two-holer” outhouse in the backyard, catching crawdads along the Columbia River, and, as a young adult, going to work at the Crown Zellerbach paper mill. Eventually, changing times allowed her to move up and become a mechanic.
This conversation was recorded July 6, 2026 at the Two Rivers Heritage Museum in Washougal, Washington.
