Karlene shea biography for kids

Correspondence, sheet music, business records, phonograph records, programs, songbooks, and other materials from Shea’s career as a soloist, radio personality, and composer.

Most of the material is from the last decades of his life, especially his work with the Billy Graham Evangelistic Association (BGEA), but the entire range of his life from the s on is covered. Though representing only a fraction of Shea’s papers, it includes a rich collection of source material that Shea used in his musical endeavors.

The collection is open for research, and there are no access restrictions on the materials.

Buswell Library & Special Collections does not hold the copyright to any of the music written by Shea or to any of his recordings.
