|
| Bruce Stuart Roberts was born on February 4,
1930 in Mount Vernon, N.Y., to Marion McNally and Charles Wesley Roberts.
He graduated from New York University (B.S., 1951) and attended the University
of Florida in 1954. During the Korean War, Roberts served in the United
States Air Force (1951-53). In 1957, he married writer Nancy Correll (b.
1924). They have two children: Nancy Lee and David Correll. Roberts began
his career as a reporter with the Tampa Tribune (1954-55). Following a stint
(1956-58) as editor and publisher of the Lumberton Post, Lumberton, N.C.
and Scottish Chief, Maxton, N.C., he served as a staff photographer for
The Charlotte Observer (1959-61) and director of photography for Wilmington,
Del., newspapers (1962-63). Since 1963, Roberts has been a free-lance photographer
for magazines and books. He has been named Southern Photographer of the
Year (1959, 1961) and his book, Where Time Stood Still (1970), was chosen
by the New York Times editorial board as one of the outstanding books of
1970. |

|
| |
| This collection contains photographs, including
those rejected for publication, typescripts and proof, related clippings
and correspondence, as well as published copies of books. Documentation
varies from minimal for The Cape Hatteras Seashore to extensive for The
Face of North Carolina. Only The Face of North Carolina and David include
correspondence. With the exception of the duplicates and the additions,
the photographs have been drymounted. |
| |
| NOTE: The photographs have been matched with
copies of the first editions of the books, and consequently they may not
match if compared to copies of later editions. |
| |
| The Bruce Roberts Collection is arranged primarily
into series by the title of the books documented in this collection. |
