Abstract:

The auditorium in the Pisgah Center for Wildlife Education near Brevard was named in honor of the late Beatrice H. Barsantee. Born in 1907, Barsantee, a resident of Hendersonville, left one-fourth of her estate to the North Carolina Wildlife Commission for the purpose of conservation education. The money helped start the center, which is now in its fifth year of educating the public about wildlife.
