Scope and Contents

From the Series: This first eleven boxes of this collection, dating from 1930 to 1995, contain personal materials pertaining to Keith Engar. While the bulk of the collection focuses on Engar's involvement in theater, this section also contains information on his radio and television career, his education, his involvement in the LDS Church, his years in the Army Air Corps, and his family. Two oral histories conducted with Engar are in box 1, folders 5-6. One was done by Everett Cooley, head of the Oral History Project for the University of Utah's Marriott Library, while the other was part of a project conducted by Robertson Associates, Inc. This latter project, headed by James Robertson, selected individuals who "played important roles in the establishment and develop-ment of noncommercial educational television in the United States." Both histories contain a great deal of information concerning Engar's pioneering efforts in the field of radio and educational television, as well as on his contributions to theater. The copyright documents in box 1, folder 16 pertain to plays Engar wrote and wanted published. Several plays written and produced by Engar were for the LDS Church Activities Committee of which he was a part. One of these plays is represented by a program in box 3, folder 7. The program in box 3, folder 10 was for a pageant, "The Message of the Ages," commemorating the centenary of the organization of the LDS Church. Where possible, photographs were taken out of the scrapbooks in boxes 6-11 and transferred to the Multimedia Section of the Manuscripts Division; photocopies were placed in their stead. Scrapbooks located in boxes 6-8 and 10 were given titles, as listed, by Engar.
