  • Alton H. Blackington Photograph Collection Finding
    Special Collections and University Archives : University Libraries Alton H. Blackington Photograph Collection 1898-1943 15 boxes (4 linear ft.) Call no.: PH 061 Collection overview A native of Rockland, Maine, Alton H. "Blackie" Blackington (1893-1963) was a writer, photojournalist, and radio personality associated with New England "lore and legend." After returning from naval service in the First World War, Blackington joined the staff of the Boston Herald, covering a range of current events, but becoming well known for his human interest features on New England people and customs. He was successful enough by the mid-1920s to establish his own photo service, and although his work remained centered on New England and was based in Boston, he photographed and handled images from across the country. Capitalizing on the trove of New England stories he accumulated as a photojournalist, Blackington became a popular lecturer and from 1933-1953, a radio and later television host on the NBC network, Yankee Yarns, which yielded the books Yankee Yarns (1954) and More Yankee Yarns (1956). This collection of glass plate negatives was purchased by Robb Sagendorf of Yankee Publishing around the time of Blackington's death. Reflecting Blackington's photojournalistic interests, the collection covers a terrain stretching from news of public officials and civic events to local personalities, but the heart of the collection is the dozens of images of typically eccentric New England characters and human interest stories. Most of the images were taken by Blackington on 4x5" dry plate negatives, however many of the later images are made on flexible acetate stock and the collection includes several images by other (unidentified) photographers distributed by the Blackington News Service.

My interest in John Steinbeck’s work and its connection to lynching was sparked by a particular reading of his 1937 novel, Of Mice and Men. I say particular because I have encountered the novel many times.

    UNIVERSITY OF LOUISVILLE COMMENCEMENT AT CARDINAL STADIUM MAY 7 - 9, 2021 UNIVERSITY OF LOUISVILLE COMMENCEMENT AT CARDINAL STADIUM MAY 7 - 9, 2021 2 A Brief History of the University of Louisville The University of Louisville traces its roots to 1798 when the Jefferson Seminary was established. During the early 19th century, the growing importance of river navigation, coupled with a strategic location at the falls of the Ohio River, made Louisville a commercial hub for the South and West. As the city’s population and economy grew, so did the demand for higher education. In 1837, the Louisville Medical Institute opened for its first class, and the next year the city created the Louisville Collegiate Institute. In 1846, the General Assembly merged the Medical and Collegiate Institutes as the University of Louisville. The Assembly created a common board of trustees, but each division retained financial autonomy. The Medical School prospered and a newly added School of Law brought in a number of students. By the 1880s and 1890s however, the University felt some pressure from education reformers who not only believed schools should employ full-time instructors, but also advocated well-enforced, national standards for academic training. In 1907, this trend contributed to the revival of the College of Arts and Sciences. Over the next three decades, the University added new programs - the Graduate School (1915), the School of Dentistry (1916), the Speed Scientific School (1928), the Louisville Municipal College (1931), the School of Music (1932), and the Kent School of Social Work (1936). World War II and the postwar era brought major changes to the University of Louisville.
