Abstract:
The North Carolina Folklore Society awarded guitarist Fred David Olson of Asheboro a 2003 Brown-Hudson Award. Olson grew up in a musical household and began playing the guitar in the 1940s. Over the years he has played in a musical group that has included some of North Carolina's best-known folk musicians, such as violinist Lauchlin Shaw and dulcimer player Virgil Craven. Olson received the award for his lifetime of work as a performer and collector of North Carolina music.
