BIOGRAPHICAL/HISTORICAL NOTE

Radio and television journalist, political observer, actor, and storyteller Brooks Read was

born in Baton Rouge, La., in 1926. He began broadcasting on Baton Rouge radio station

WJBO at the age of nine reading Uncle Remus stories on air. He continued announcing at

WJBO and entered Louisiana State University in 1941, where he participated in theatrical

productions. Read then attended Northwestern University (Evanston, Ill.) on scholarship

from the National Broadcasting Company, and later Columbia University. Read

managed several Louisiana radio stations, and from 1955-1964 he worked for Baton

Rouge television station WBRZ as "Your Esso Reporter." Also during the 1950s, Read

produced a recording of Joel Chandler Harris's Tar Baby, and then began creating and

recording original stories, using some of the same characters known from folklore that

Harris used, like Brer Rabbit and Brer Fox, but also featuring characters he created.

These recordings, known as the Uncle Remus Radio Programs, were marketed to and

broadcast by radio stations nationwide. He produced and sold several Uncle Remus

stories on record albums known as the Brer Rabbit Albums.

In the mid-1960s, Read established an advertising and public relations firm while also

serving as capitol correspondent for New Orleans television station WWL. He served as

Gov. John J. McKeithen's press secretary, 1969-1970, and also participated in numerous

Louisiana Democratic party committees, 1974-1991.

Read married Maureen Hushar in 1949, and they had three daughters. He died in 1991.

SCOPE AND CONTENT NOTE

The collection is primarily comprised of reel to reel audio tape and scripts of Read's

recordings of both original Brer Rabbit stories and stories he wrote based on the

characters. User copies on audio cassette have been made of the reel to reel recordings.

Subject files include correspondence, contracts, marketing materials, artwork, and

newspaper articles related to his recordings. The subseries are Articles and Newspaper

Clippings; Brer Rabbit Albums; Liberty Broadcasting System; Radio Stations;

Storytelling; Uncle Remus Radio Programs; and Webber Correspondence, July 18, 1952-

July 28, 1959. Phonographic records in 33, 45, and 78 formats are of background music

and sound effects used in the shows.

CONTAINER LIST

Each story is designated by a number referred to on the actual reels as the reel number.

The first list below, Stories/Reels, provides a box listing for all the story/reel numbers.

Some titles are included in the Stories/Reels list for reels without numbers in boxes 18,

19 and 20. Box 20 also contains one video, ―Brer Rabbit Master,‖ which is the master for

the proposed television program, and one film, ―Uncle Remus Afternoon Show.‖

The second list, Scripts, gives script titles and numbers. Most of the script numbers do

not correspond to the story/reel numbers. Those numbers that do are designated with an

* before the script number. Of the numbers that do not correspond directly, some

story/reel numbers are known to match certain scripts. These are denoted by (Reel #___ )

following the script title. There are several script titles that can be found under more than

one script number; these are noted in parentheses after the script titles.

The final two lists are Subject Files and Phonographic records.
