Contents: |
The collection includes papers found among the papers of J. Aubrey Smith (collection UGA 08-007) which were transferred from
the University of Georgia Walter J. Brown Media Archive to the University Archives in 2008. Harry Brown recorded an account
of his life and career, aided by his friends, Rosslyn Smith and her husband, University of Georgia Agricultural Extension
film maker, J. Aubrey Smith. Judging from a note enclosed with the tape cassettes, it appears that Ms. Smith interviewed Brown
and used the lengthy taped interview to develop the typed text for his approval. Brown covers events in his life and his perspective
on agricultural life in the first half of the 20th century. He also discusses the operations of the many government operations
in which he played a role. In addition to a finished manuscript of his memoir, this collection includes early drafts and outlines,
notes, correspondence and both tapes of the interview with Brown and a transcript of the tapes.
