  • Halliburton, Richard (1900-1939) by Mark Staebler
    Halliburton, Richard (1900-1939) by Mark Staebler Encyclopedia Copyright © 2015, glbtq, Inc. Entry Copyright © 2007 glbtq, Inc. Reprinted from http://www.glbtq.com Once every schoolboy's idol, a best-selling author, and a household name in the United States and abroad, American adventurer and writer Richard Halliburton became virtually forgotten soon after his death in 1939. Recently, however, there has been renewed interest in him, at least in part because of his homosexuality, which he understandably took efforts to conceal during his lifetime but which nevertheless surfaced in his writing and has subsequently been confirmed. Halliburton was born on January 9, 1900, in Brownsville, Tennessee, near Memphis, to a prosperous family. A sickly child, he manifested a congenital heart problem at age 15 and spent eight months in isolated recovery. His brother's death from a similar condition two years later motivated Halliburton to take the offensive against infirmity, and to determine to seek a life of adventure and daring. After graduating from prep school, Halliburton entered Princeton University. At Princeton he was an indifferent student, but sold an article to Field and Stream magazine for $150. This success encouraged him to pursue a life of traveling and writing. Just weeks after his graduation from Princeton in 1921, Halliburton signed on as a merchant seaman on a freighter bound for Hamburg, Germany. His ceaseless quest for adventure had begun. He climbed the Matterhorn in September of that year. His wanderlust took him through Paris and on to the "rock of Gibraltar," where taking photographs of defense weapon emplacements at the strait landed him in jail.

  • 2019 Education Curriculum Guide
    Tennessee Academic Standards 2019 EDUCATION CURRICULUM GUIDE MEMPHIS IN MAY INTERNATIONAL FESTIVAL Celebrates Memphis in 2019 For the fi rst time in its 43-year history, Memphis in May breaks with tradition to make the City of Memphis and Shelby County the year-long focus of its annual salute. Rather than another country, the 2019 Memphis in May Festival honors Memphis and Shelby County as both celebrate their bicentennials and the start of a new century for the city and county. Memphis has changed the world and will continue to change the world. We are a city of doers, dreamers, and believers. We create, we invent, we experiment; and this year, we invite the world to experience our beautiful home on the banks of the Mississippi River. The Bluff City…Home of the Blues, Soul, and Rock & Roll…a city where “Grit and Grind” are more than our team’s slogan, they’re who we are: determined, passionate, authentic, soulful, unstoppable. With more than a million residents in its metro area, the City of Memphis is a city of authenticity and diversity where everyone is welcomed. While some come because of its reputation as a world-renown incubator of talent grown from its rich musical legacy, Memphis draws many to its leading hospital and research systems, putting Memphis at the leading edge of medical and bioscience innovation. Situated nearly in the middle of the United States at the crossroads of major interstates, rail lines, the world’s second-busiest cargo airport, and the fourth-largest inland port on the Mississippi River, Memphis moves global commerce as the leader in transportation and logistics.

The story appeared inNew Worlds to Conquer. Courtesy of the Rhodes College Archives and Special Collections, Memphis, Tennessee. October 7, 2014 I am pleased to announce the publication of The Forgotten Adventures of Richard Halliburton: A High-Flying Life from Tennessee to Timbuktu by R. Scott Williams. Wander through the captivating, jaw-dropping and almost unbelievable life of adventurer and travel writer Richard Halliburton. Born in Brownsville, Tennessee, in 1900 and raised in Memphis, at the age of nineteen he left home to lead an extraordinary and dramatic life of adventure. Against the backdrop of the Roaring Twenties and the Great Depression, Halliburton’s exploits around the globe made him an internationally known celebrity and the most famous travel writer and lecturer of his day. From climbing Mount Olympus in Greece to swimming the Panama Canal, and literally flying all the way to Timbuktu, Halliburton experienced and wrote about adventures that others never even believed possible. “Halliburton was among the first American personalities to create an entertainment brand and then perpetuate it in order to achieve validation, media attention and financial reward. While Charlie Chaplin became the ‘little tramp with a big heart,’ Amelia Earhart was the ‘female flyer making it in a man’s world’ and Charles Lindbergh was the ‘handsome daredevil,’ Richard Halliburton was the ‘boy adventurer’ who, like Peter Pan, refused to grow up.

    OKLAHOMA PILOTS ASSOCIATION NEWS In the Sky January 2018 (www.opa.link) January 4th, 2018 - Social 6:30 p.m. 7:00 Dinner Meeting Speaker: Barbara Schultz - Aviation Author A member of the 99’s Museum of Women Pilots, Barbara Schultz is a noted aviation historian and author with four books in print: Pancho: The Biography of Florence Lowe Barnes; Wedell-Williams Air Service; Flying Carpets, Flying Wings: The Biography of Moye W. Stephens; and Endorsed by Earhart: How Amelia Financed her Flying. The Stephens biography encompasses over fifty years of aviation history. Stephens' story includes early flying in southern California from Clover, Rogers, DeMille, Chaplin, and Glendale's Grand Central Airport and his association with Howard Hughes, Alan Hancock, Eddie Bellande, Amelia Earhart, and many other notable aviators. Piloting a Stearman dubbed the Flying Carpet, an open cockpit biplane with only a compass for directions, Stephens flew famed author Richard Halliburton around the world in 1931/1932. The 18-month flight included a 1,600 mile journey through the desolate Sahara to Timbuctoo; a near fatal flight in an attempt to capture Mt. Everest on film; and a visit with Dyak headhunters in Borneo. This is the first factual narrative of the Flying Carpet flight. In addition to her books and AAHS journal articles, she has been a consultant and participant in three aviation documentaries: The Happy Bottom Riding Club, Breaking through the Clouds, and The Katherine Cheung Story. Her projects are well-researched and include many first-person interviews with pioneering pilots. Barbara earned her pilot's license in 1978, purchased a 1950 Cessna 140A, and married her test pilot husband, Phil.
