The exhibit and all of its peripheral documentation was designed and produced by Karen Meizner, Special Projects Librarian. Robert W.

Evans, Library Specialist, provided moral and editorial support; Elizabeth Hogue, Humanities Reference Librarian, provided intellectual support, performed much research, and edited much of the written documentation.

Special thanks go to Rosalee Tuttle, volunteer in the Diehn Composers Room, whose discoveries while processing the materials in the Allan Blank Collection provided much of the background for this exhibit.
This event was inspired by Dr. Jean A. Major, University Librarian of Old Dominion University Libraries, who also sought and acquired grant funding.
