The collection represents the contributions of the Snyders and their daughter, Cherie, through papers, publications, awards,
artifacts and images. In addition to documenting their work, many of the materials offer a unique view of life in contemporary
Africa and the efforts of agricultural extension and development in the Northwestern part of that continent. Many of the artifacts
were created by artisans from around the world, from Tifton to Ouagadougou, and given to the Snyders in thanks for their efforts
promoting international development projects. These materials were displayed in conjunction the Darl Snyder Lecture in 2004.
At that time the Snyders toured the exhibit with Dr. Lioba Moshi, Director of the UGA African Studies Institutes. A transcription
of their remarks regarding the significance or history of various artifacts can be found in folder 20 of box 1. In addition
we have placed their comments with the description of items in the list below, identifying the speaker by their initials,

Harry Lowrance Brown biographical papers

circa 1900-1984 |

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.
