Collection Description Biographical Note Ralph McGill (February 5, 1898 - February 3, 1969), journalist, editor, and publisher, was born Ralph Waldo Emerson McGill in the farming community of Iqouls Ferry, ten miles from the coal-mining town of Soddy, in Hamilton County, Tennessee. The son of Benjamin Franklin McGill, a small farmer, and Mary Louise Skillern McGill, Ralph was the oldest of four children and the only son. When Ralph was six years old, the family moved to Chattanooga, thirty miles south of Soddy, where he attended elementary school and McCallie Preparatory School, graduating in 1917. He entered the freshman class at Vanderbilt University in the fall of 1917, left in the spring of 1918 to enlist in the U.S. Marine Corps, and returned to Vanderbilt in the fall of 1919. In 1922, several months before he was to graduate, McGill was expelled for a prank. He never received a college degree. During his final year at Vanderbilt, McGill began working as a reporter for the Nashville Banner covering political, police, and sports stories. In 1923, he was made sports editor. In March 1929, he left the Banner for a position as sports editor for the Atlanta Constitution, beginning work there on April 3, 1929. As in Nashville, McGill wrote occasional features on political and economic subjects, and in 1937, a series he wrote on Georgia agriculture won for him a Rosenwald fellowship for a year of travel and study in Europe. From this trip came a series of articles published as Two Georgians Explore Scandinavia by Ralph McGill and Thomas C. David, Atlanta: State Department of Education, 1938. Upon his return in 1938, McGill was made executive editor of the Constitution, and in 1941, was promoted to editor-in-chief, a position he held until 1960, when he was named publisher. Throughout his career, McGill traveled widely, to Europe, Cuba, Africa, the Middle East, and Southeast Asia, and wrote on national and international affairs. He became best known as a spokesman for his region during the racial turmoil of the 1950s and 1960s. Often called the "Conscience of the South," McGill took a moderate position on racial issues and appealed for 2 Ralph McGill papers, 1853-1971 Manuscript Collection No. 252 racial cooperation and obedience to the law of the land after the Supreme Court ruling in 1954, thereby becoming identified with the "liberal" element in the south and gaining national acclaim. In 1959, he was awarded the Pulitzer Prize for distinguished editorial writing. He also received the Lauterbach award for "distinguished service in the field of civil liberties" in 1960, the Florence Lasker award of the American Civil Liberties Union in 1964, the Presidential Medal of Freedom in 1964, and many honorary degrees. In addition to newspaper columns and magazine articles which appeared in such periodicals as Harper's, Saturday Evening Post, New Republic, and Atlantic Monthly, McGill also wrote four books: Israel Revisited (1950); The Fleas Come With the Dog (1954); A Church, A School (1959); and The South and the Southerner (1965), which was awarded the Atlantic Monthly non- fiction prize for that year. McGill's circle of friends was wide and varied. Among his close friends (in addition to Harold Martin, Grace Lundy, and others on the Constitution staff, and his lifelong friend, Rebecca Mathis Gershon) were Robert W. Woodruff, Harry Ashmore, and Carl Sandburg. Adlai Stevenson, Edward Weeks, Lawrence Winship, Westbrook Pegler, and Harry Golden, Dwight D. Eisenhower, John F. Kennedy, Robert F. Kennedy, Richard M. Nixon, Ernest Hemingway, and Carson McCullers were numbered among his acquaintances and correspondents. McGill was first married to Mary Elizabeth Leonard (January 14, 1905 - March 21, 1962) of Nashville, on September 4, 1929. Two children were born to the marriage, a daughter Elizabeth, who died in infancy (January 6-10, 1936) and Ralph E. McGill, Jr. (b. April 25, 1945). In the spring of 1936, after the death of their first child, the McGills adopted a daughter whom they named Virginia Colvin McGill (February 3, 1936-December 20, 1939). Virginia died of leukemia at the age of 3 1/2 years. McGill's second marriage was to Dr. Mary Lynn Morgan (b. April 5, 1921), an Atlanta pedodontist, on April 20, 1967. Ralph McGill died in Atlanta on February 3, 1969. McGill, his first wife, and their two daughters are buried in Westview Cemetery in Atlanta.

    THE ATLANTA PRESERVATION CENTER’S Phoenix2017 Flies A CELEBRATION OF ATLANTA’S HISTORIC SITES FREE CITY-WIDE EVENTS PRESERVEATLANTA.COM Welcome to Phoenix Flies ust as the Grant Mansion, the home of the Atlanta Preservation Center, was being constructed in the mid-1850s, the idea of historic preservation in America was being formulated. It was the invention of women, specifically, the ladies who came J together to preserve George Washington’s Mount Vernon. The motives behind their efforts were rich and complicated and they sought nothing less than to exemplify American character and to illustrate a national identity. In the ensuing decades examples of historic preservation emerged along with the expanding roles for women in American life: The Ladies Hermitage Association in Nashville, Stratford in Virginia, the D.A.R., and the Colonial Dames all promoted preservation as a mission and as vehicles for teaching contributive citizenship. The 1895 Cotton States and International Exposition held in Piedmont Park here in Atlanta featured not only the first Pavilion in an international fair to be designed by a woman architect, but also a Colonial Kitchen and exhibits of historic artifacts as well as the promotion of education and the arts. Women were leaders in the nurture of the arts to enrich American culture. Here in Atlanta they were a force in the establishment of the Opera, Ballet, and Visual arts. Early efforts to preserve old Atlanta, such as the Leyden Columns and the Wren’s Nest were the initiatives of women. The Atlanta Preservation Center, founded in 1979, was championed by the Junior League and headed by Eileen Rhea Brown.

    CLONES, BONES AND TWILIGHT ZONES: PROTECTING THE DIGITAL PERSONA OF THE QUICK, THE DEAD AND THE IMAGINARY By JosephJ. Beard' ABSTRACT This article explores a developing technology-the creation of digi- tal replicas of individuals, both living and dead, as well as the creation of totally imaginary humans. The article examines the various laws, includ- ing copyright, sui generis, right of publicity and trademark, that may be employed to prevent the creation, duplication and exploitation of digital replicas of individuals as well as to prevent unauthorized alteration of ex- isting images of a person. With respect to totally imaginary digital hu- mans, the article addresses the issue of whether such virtual humans should be treated like real humans or simply as highly sophisticated forms of animated cartoon characters.

    Gazette Project Interview with Roy Reed Little Rock, Arkansas, 15 March 2000 Interviewer: Harri Baker Harri Baker: This is a continuation of interviews with Roy Reed and Harri Baker. This is March 15th in the year 2000. Roy, we had carried your story right up to the point where you are about to get hired by the Arkansas Gazette. So, how did that come about? It is the year of 1956. I understand that a childhood friend of yours was a printer at the Gazette and was somehow involved in the process. Roy Reed: That’s right. His name was Stan Slaten. Stanley and I grew up together in Piney, on the outskirts of Hot Springs. We chased girls together. In fact - -- I can’t remember if I told this or not --- Stanley wrecked my Model A pickup truck because he couldn’t stand it that the girl sitting between us was paying more attention to me than to him. He took his hands off the wheel just long enough to run off the bluff. Nobody was hurt. Stanley and I used to go out on the river, the Ouachita River, and put out trot lines. Now and then, we would get a hold of --- It seems to me the most whiskey that we were able to buy, between the two of us, was probably a pint or a half of a pint. With boys that are fifteen years old, that is about all it takes. We would build a fire and heat up wieners and do the things that 1 boys do that they consider necessary in growing up.
