| Description: |
(70 audiotapes) Delmar D. Gott, former Director of Library Services at the Browning Library, contacted local residents and community leaders and personally recorded 70 oral histories between the years 1965-1990. This collection contains interviews with a wide variety of people discussing their lifestyles (ranching, farming, government, business, etc.), and the lives of their pioneer ancestors in Southern Utah's Dixie, nearby Nevada, and the Arizona Strip. Maurine Whipple (writer, historian), Juanita Brooks (writer, historian), Ferron C. Losee (President of Dixie College), Ralph Huntsman (painter, Dixie College art professor), and Howard Foulger (collector of Native American art and artifacts) are only a few of the interviewees. This collection is in the transcription process with grant funding. |
