Abstract:
Frank Warner attended Duke University from 1921 to 1925. He is widely known for his ability as a singer, banjoist, American traditional folk music collector, author, and performer. Between 1938 and 1966, he and his wife Anne traveled from North Carolina to New Hampshire, collecting American songs. On North Carolina's Outer Banks the Warners built relationships with local families and recorded songs from faraway places and times long gone by. In 1941, they recorded more than one hundred tracks from singers in Wanchese, Manns Harbor, Kitty Hawk, Nags Head, and other towns.

Abstract:
The Sunburst Trout Company began in 1948 as a small pond-stocking rainbow trout farm. The Haywood County enterprise grew into a far-flung retail and wholesale business, supplying individual customers in almost every state and over two hundred buyers for restaurants, supermarkets, and seafood brokers. Rainbow trout take about four years to reach their harvest weight of three pounds. The company processes about 10,000 pounds of fish each week through every season of the year. Sunburst employs between twelve and eighteen people, and turnover is low.
