Biographical/Historical Note

 

Thomas Harry Williams (1909-1979) was a Professor of History at Louisiana State University, Baton Rouge, from 1941 until his retirement in May of 1979.   A scholar and prolific writer, he authored numerous books, articles, and book reviews.  He was a distinguished and popular faculty member and a superb public speaker.  He was active in several historical associations and received many awards and honors.

 

Williams was born in Illinois.  His mother, Emma Necollins Williams, died before he was two years old.  Soon after her death, T. Harry Williams and his father, William D. Williams, moved to Hazel Green, Wisconsin to live with his paternal grandparents.  In 1952, T. Harry Williams married Estelle Skolfield Williams.  He had one stepdaughter, Mai Frances Doles.

 

He  received his early education in the local schools of Hazel Green, Wisconsin.  In 1931 he received a bachelor’s degree in education from Platteville State Teachers College, Wisconsin.  Unable to find a teaching job, he entered  graduate school that year  at the University of Wisconsin to study history. While at the University of Wisconsin, he studied under William B. Hesseltine and earned at Master’s degree (1932) and Ph.D. (1937) in history.  Williams began teaching history in the Extension Department of the University of Wisconsin in 1936.  He then taught at the University of Omaha from 1938 until 1941.  He began teaching at Louisiana State University in the fall of 1941.

 

Williams was awarded the title of Boyd Professor in 1953.  He was an enthusiastic and stimulating classroom lecturer and spoke to overflow crowds of students.  In 1979 the L.S.U. Board of Supervisors established the T.Harry Williams Chair of American History.  In that same year, the T. Harry Williams Scholarship Fund was created.  Among his many academic honors were;  Doctor of  Law, Northland College (1953); Guggenheim Fellow (1957); Doctor of Letters, Bradley University (1959); Harry S. Truman Award in Civil War History (1964); Harmsworth Professor of American History, Queen’s College, Oxford England (1966-1967); Doctor of Humane Letters, Loyola University (1974); and Doctor of Humane Letters, Tulane University (1979).

 

 He described himself as a “narrative historian,” meaning he wrote and lectured for the general reader and listener.   His first book, Lincoln and the Radicals, was published by the University of Wisconsin Press in 1941.  Williams published more than fifteen books from 1941 until 1979.  Two books were published after his death.  In 1969, Williams  received much acclaim for his book, Huey Long.  In this book he used the new research technique of oral history.   Williams was awarded the National Book Award and the Pulitzer Prize for Huey Long.

Williams served as President of the Southern Historical Association (1958-1959) and Organization of American Historians (1972-1973).   He was a guest lecturer at numerous colleges, universities, historical associations, and Civil War Round Tables.
