Abstract:

The Brown-Hudson Folklore Award was established in 1970, and Dorothea and Janette Moser are the first folklorists who come from two generations of the same family to receive the award. Their father, Artus Moser, received the award in 1972. Like their father, the daughters went to college, taught college courses about the Appalachian traditions, and collected, preserved, and performed the material of their Appalachian heritage.
