    THE SELMA S. LEWIS COLLECTION Memphis and Shelby County Room Memphis & Shelby County Public Library & Information Center 3030 Poplar Avenue, Memphis, TN 38111 Collection Processed by Krystle Savage University of Memphis 2002 1 SCOPE AND PROVENANCE The Selma Lewis Collection was given to the Memphis and Shelby County Public Library and Information Center by her daughter, Jane Lewis Ross in April of 2000. The collection includes a wide range of newspaper clippings and correspondence, with some photographs and publications. The greater portion of the collection is composed of local Jewish history and biographies. Also included are manuscript copies of The Angel of Beale Street: a Biography of Julia Ann Hooks; A Biblical People in the Bible Belt: the Jewish Community of Memphis, Tennessee, 1840s-1960s; and Lewis’ dissertation “Social Religion and the Sanitation Strike.” She also wrote “Diversification and Unity, MIFA, 1968- 1988,” a study of the Metropolitan Inter-Faith Association. Also of importance are the transcripts of oral interviews with representative members of the African American community, which were conducted by Selma Lewis and Marjean Kremer in 1978 as part of the research for the Pink Palace Museum exhibit “Historic Black Memphians.” These transcripts were given to the Library by Mrs. Lewis during her lifetime. In summary, the collection provides significant information pertaining to the history and life of the Jewish and African American communities of Memphis. 2 SELMA SELIGMAN LEWIS 1922- 2000 Selma Seligman Lewis, a woman who enriched the lives of all she knew, grew up in Nashville, Tennessee and earned a bachelor’s degree from Vanderbilt University.
