Association for the Preservation of the Eno River Valley collection, 1985-2002.Association for the Preservation of the Eno River Valley.Association for the Preservation of the Eno River Valley collection, 1985-20161275 items (9.5 linear ft.)The Association for the Preservation of the Eno River Valley (commonly known as the Eno River Association) is a non-profit conservation organization whose mission is to conserve and protect the natural, cultural, and historic resources of North Carolina's Eno River basin. Since its inception in 1965, the Association has worked to protect the environmental resources around the river and its tributaries, promoting education and advocacy through environmental and community programs, including a hike series and the long-running annual Festival for the Eno. The collection consists primarily of audio recordings, including interviews, live performances, radio broadcasts, and audition tapes related to the Association for the Preservation of the Eno River Valley and their annual Festival for the Eno. Conducted by Dave Cook in 2002, the interviews found in the collection are with Association members who recall their experiences growing up near the Eno River and participating in the preservation and enjoyment of the local environment. Interviewees include Pat Bailey, Donald N. Cox, Holger Nygard, Thomas C. Ellis, Hazel Cash, John Blackfeather Jeffries, John A. Scarlett, and Mary Scarlett. The collection contains affiliated transcripts, 2000-2002, for some of these interviews as well as for interviews for which there is no corresponding recording. The majority of the audio recordings found in the collection relate to the annual Festival for the Eno and consist of live festival recordings, 1985-2010, radio broadcasts, 1995-1998, and performers' audition tapes, 1985-2010. Notable performers featured on the live recordings include Etta Baker, Shirley Caesar, Richard "Big Boy" Henry, Algia Mae Hinton, John Dee Holeman, Bobby McMillon, Tift Merritt, Frank Proffitt, Red Clay Ramblers, Ralph Stanley, Joe Thompson, Doc Watson, and Merle Watson. Also included in the collection are videotapes, circa 1997, containing footage of the festival, promotional posters, 1987-2016, from select years of the festival, and ephemera found with the performers' audition tapes.EnglishUniversity of North Carolina at Chapel HillMassingale, Susan. Susan Massingale collection, 1987-1995.Massingale, Susan.Susan Massingale collection, 1987-1995.243 items.The Susan Massingale collection consists of 243 videotapes from four documentary productions, 1987-1995. Massingale co-produced and co-directed one of the productions, "Step It Up and Go: Blues in the Carolinas," with Glen Hinson. The other productions are "Boogie in Black and White," a film about the Cherokee Indians, and another film about Black Mountain College. Massingale's connection to these three documentaries is unclear, but they appear to related to UNC-TV and are chiefly about North Carolina. Videotape formats include Betacam, Umatic, and VHS. "Step It Up and Go: Blues in the Carolinas" traces the development of blues music in the Carolinas through interviews with musicians and still photographs of them. North Carolina musicians talk about how they learned to play and perform different styles on the banjo, fiddle, guitar, piano, bottle, and spoons. Performers include Odell Thompson, Nate Thompson, Joe Thompson, Etta Baker, Cora Phillips, Junior Thomas, Thomas Burt, Guitar Slim, Moses Roscoe, and Anthony Pough. The UNC-TV documentary "Boogie in Black and White" is a film about the making of "Pitch a Boogie Woogie," a film shot in Greenville, N.C., in 1947 by John W. Warner, then owner of Greenville's Plaza Theatre. "Pitch a Boogie Woogie," released by Lord-Warner Pictures, Inc., in 1948, was the first movie made by a production company based in North Carolina. It had an all-African American cast of mostly local Greenville musicians and actors and enjoyed success in the Carolinas, but was never shown outside that area. The Cherokee Indian production appears to be mostly about Joyce Dugan, who was elected Principal Chief of the Eastern Band of Cherokee Indians in 1995. She was the first woman to hold that position. The Black Mountain College production appears to be about the history of Black Mountain College in Black Mountain, N.C. Black Mountain College was founded in 1933 and guided by the principle that the study of art was central to a liberal arts education. Black Mountain College closed in 1957.
