","Series VIII comprises the last series and consists of artifacts, miscellany, audiovisual and born-digital material (Boxes 114-120). This series is arranged in four subseries: Subseries A: Artifacts, chiefly concerning the Second International Mitford Homecoming; Subseries B: Albums and Volumes;Subseries C: Books Influential in the Life of Jan Karon; and Subseries D: Audiovisual and Born Digital Material.","Jan Karon was born on March 14, 1937 in Lenoir, North Carolina, to Robert Cecil Wilson (1914-1977) and Wanda Lee Wilson (1921- ) and was named Janice Meredith after the title of a popular novel. She and her younger sister, Brenda, lived as children with her grandparents, Monroe Ivy Cloer and Fannie Bush Cloer, on their farm outside Hudson, North Carolina. Both sisters later moved to Charlotte, North Carolina to join their mother who had married Toby Setzer, the owner of a hosiery knitting business.  ","At fourteen, Karon married Robert Bryan Freeland (1932-1995) in Charlotte and had one daughter, Candace Rae Freeland, in 1952. Her advertising career began at the age of eighteen, at Walter J. Klein Company, one of the first advertising agencies in the region. ","Karon's marriage to Robert Freeland ended in divorce and in her early twenties, Karon married a Duke Power chemist, Bill Orth, and became active in the Charlotte Little Theater, the Mint Museum Drama Guild, and in local social and political issues. She was one of four white women who marched in an early civil rights protest, led by the Reverend Sydney Freeman, along Charlotte's North Tyron Street.","During the late sixties, she and Orth divorced. Karon then married Arthur Karon, a clothing salesman who moved the family to Berkeley, California, where they lived for three years.","After their marriage ended, Karon returned to Charlotte, North Carolina, and begun working again in advertising. Her dismissal from a Charlotte TV production company in 1982 precipitated what she called the 'proverbial dark night of the soul.' Karon returned to the faith taught her as a child by her grandmother. She began attending Charlotte's interdenominational Calvary Church, and worked as a free-lance copywriter until her move to Raleigh, North Carolina, in 1983, where she joined McKinney and Silver, an internationally renowned advertising firm. ","She became an award- winning creative vice-president at McKinney, working on cruise line and airline accounts. There she won, with art director Michael Winslow, the coveted Steven E. Kelly Award, the print advertising equivalent of the Academy Award. Semi-finalists included British Airways, Harley-Davidson, and Waterford Crystal.","Her daughter, Candace Freeland, pursued photojournalism, winning numerous awards with the  \"Miami Herald\" , the  \"Charlotte Observer\" , and a stint in Central America for the  \"U.S. News and World Report\" .","In order to pursue her dream of writing a novel, Karon left her advertising career and, at age fifty, bought a house in the small mountain town of Blowing Rock, North Carolina, where she supported  her dream with freelance advertising work.","Soon, she approached the editor of  \"The Blowing Rocket\"  with a couple of chapters featuring an Episcopal priest named Tim Kavanagh, which he urged her to run in  \"The Blowing Rocket\" . The ensuing two years of writing  the priest's story for  \"The Blowing Rocket\"  resulted in her first novel,   \"At Home in Mitford\" , published in paper by a small publishing house in the Midwest. Twenty years after its initial release in paper, the novel appeared in its 85th printing, in a new, 20th anniversary hardcover edition, from Penguin-Random House, the world's largest trade publisher.","The second and third Mitford novels,  \"A Light in the Window\"  and  \"These High Green Hills\" , were published by the same house, with limited marketing and distribution. Karon took the promotion of her books into her own hands, cold-selling them to bookstores and befriending bookstore owners. In Raleigh, bookseller Nancy Olson of Quail Ridge Books, was given a copy of  \"At Home in Mitford\"  by Mary Richardson, Karon's Raleigh neighbor and friend. Olson admired the work and in 1996 introduced Karon to literary agent Liz Darhansoff. Darhansoff showed the  Karon books to Carolyn Carlson at Penguin, and a long and fruitful relationship began. At this writing (2016), Karon has published twenty-two works of fiction and non-fiction,  with sales estimated at more than 40 million, not including foreign sales in nineteen countries. Karon is currently published by G.P. Putnam's Sons, an imprint of Penguin-Random House; her editor is Christine Pepe.","Jan Karon has won much recognition for her work. Among these are three nominations by the American Booksellers Association of  \"At Home in Mitford\"  for Best Book of the Year for three consecutive years (1996-1998) – a one-time-only occurrence in the Association's history to date.  ","In 2013,  \"Somewhere Safe with Somebody Good\" , which spent seventeen weeks on the New York Times bestseller list, was given the Library of Virginia's Best Fiction of the Year award. In 2015, Karon received The Library of Virginia's Lifetime Achievement Award. And in 2016,  \"Come Rain or Come Shine\"  debuting at #1 on the  \"New York Times\"  list, was the recipient of the 2016 Christy Award. A further recognition is the designation of Jan Karon as a lay Canon for the Arts in the Episcopal Diocese of Quincy.

She and her younger sister, Brenda, lived as children with her grandparents, Monroe Ivy Cloer and Fannie Bush Cloer, on their farm outside Hudson, North Carolina. Both sisters later moved to Charlotte, North Carolina to join their mother who had married Toby Setzer, the owner of a hosiery knitting business.  ","At fourteen, Karon married Robert Bryan Freeland (1932-1995) in Charlotte and had one daughter, Candace Rae Freeland, in 1952. Her advertising career began at the age of eighteen, at Walter J. Klein Company, one of the first advertising agencies in the region. ","Karon's marriage to Robert Freeland ended in divorce and in her early twenties, Karon married a Duke Power chemist, Bill Orth, and became active in the Charlotte Little Theater, the Mint Museum Drama Guild, and in local social and political issues. She was one of four white women who marched in an early civil rights protest, led by the Reverend Sydney Freeman, along Charlotte's North Tyron Street.","During the late sixties, she and Orth divorced. Karon then married Arthur Karon, a clothing salesman who moved the family to Berkeley, California, where they lived for three years.","After their marriage ended, Karon returned to Charlotte, North Carolina, and begun working again in advertising. Her dismissal from a Charlotte TV production company in 1982 precipitated what she called the 'proverbial dark night of the soul.' Karon returned to the faith taught her as a child by her grandmother. She began attending Charlotte's interdenominational Calvary Church, and worked as a free-lance copywriter until her move to Raleigh, North Carolina, in 1983, where she joined McKinney and Silver, an internationally renowned advertising firm. ","She became an award- winning creative vice-president at McKinney, working on cruise line and airline accounts. There she won, with art director Michael Winslow, the coveted Steven E. Kelly Award, the print advertising equivalent of the Academy Award. Semi-finalists included British Airways, Harley-Davidson, and Waterford Crystal.","Her daughter, Candace Freeland, pursued photojournalism, winning numerous awards with the  \"Miami Herald\" , the  \"Charlotte Observer\" , and a stint in Central America for the  \"U.S. News and World Report\" .","In order to pursue her dream of writing a novel, Karon left her advertising career and, at age fifty, bought a house in the small mountain town of Blowing Rock, North Carolina, where she supported  her dream with freelance advertising work.","Soon, she approached the editor of  \"The Blowing Rocket\"  with a couple of chapters featuring an Episcopal priest named Tim Kavanagh, which he urged her to run in  \"The Blowing Rocket\" . The ensuing two years of writing  the priest's story for  \"The Blowing Rocket\"  resulted in her first novel,   \"At Home in Mitford\" , published in paper by a small publishing house in the Midwest. Twenty years after its initial release in paper, the novel appeared in its 85th printing, in a new, 20th anniversary hardcover edition, from Penguin-Random House, the world's largest trade publisher.","The second and third Mitford novels,  \"A Light in the Window\"  and  \"These High Green Hills\" , were published by the same house, with limited marketing and distribution. Karon took the promotion of her books into her own hands, cold-selling them to bookstores and befriending bookstore owners. In Raleigh, bookseller Nancy Olson of Quail Ridge Books, was given a copy of  \"At Home in Mitford\"  by Mary Richardson, Karon's Raleigh neighbor and friend. Olson admired the work and in 1996 introduced Karon to literary agent Liz Darhansoff. Darhansoff showed the  Karon books to Carolyn Carlson at Penguin, and a long and fruitful relationship began. At this writing (2016), Karon has published twenty-two works of fiction and non-fiction,  with sales estimated at more than 40 million, not including foreign sales in nineteen countries. Karon is currently published by G.P. Putnam's Sons, an imprint of Penguin-Random House; her editor is Christine Pepe.","Jan Karon has won much recognition for her work. Among these are three nominations by the American Booksellers Association of  \"At Home in Mitford\"  for Best Book of the Year for three consecutive years (1996-1998) – a one-time-only occurrence in the Association's history to date.  ","In 2013,  \"Somewhere Safe with Somebody Good\" , which spent seventeen weeks on the New York Times bestseller list, was given the Library of Virginia's Best Fiction of the Year award. In 2015, Karon received The Library of Virginia's Lifetime Achievement Award.

She was married to Robert Stitzel, former professor of pharmacology at WVU, from 1961 till his death in 2007. The couple had one son, David. Dr. Stitzel taught at West Virginia University from 1965 until her retirement in 1998. During that time, she served as a professor of English, director of the WVU Writing Lab, coordinator of the Women's Studies program, and director of the Center for Women's Studies. Dr. Stitzel was and continues to be active in many professional and community service organizations.","Dr. Stitzel received her B.A. in English from Barnard College (1961), her M.A. in English from the University of Wisconsin (1962), and her Ph.D. in English from the University of Minnesota (1968). She joined the West Virginia University faculty as an instructor in the Department of English in 1965 and taught at WVU until her retirement in May 1998 as professor emerita of English and women's studies. During her 33-year career at WVU, she served as the first director of the Writing Lab in the Department of English, taught some of the earliest courses on women in literature, was the first coordinator of the women's studies program (1980-1984) and the first director of the Center for Women's Studies (1984-1993). While director of the Center for Women's Studies, she established the annual JoAnne and Charles Dickinson symposium. From 1993 until her retirement, she was a professor of English and women's studies. ","Dr. Stitzel offered public and professional service to a wide variety of organizations, including the WVU Faculty Senate and Council for Women's Concerns, the West Virginia Humanities Council, and the National Women's Studies Association. She has received many honors for her teaching and commitment to social justice. Indeed, Dr. Stitzel's contributions to WVU and the state of West Virginia go far beyond her role as \"founding mother\" of women's studies in the state. Her outstanding teaching and her long-standing and outspoken advocacy for women and minorities on campus, in the community, and the state made her a role model for countless women and men who, in turn, were empowered by her support to be advocates for social justice. Dr. Stitzel's impact on the lives of these individuals is clear in the extraordinary retirement ceremony, otherwise known as the \"Judithon,\" that the Center for Women's Studies held for her in the fall of 1998. The West Virginia and Regional History Collection includes a copy of the program and a videotape of this event, which researchers should consult when using these papers.","In addition, Dr. Stitzel has kept a journal for many years. She has turned one of her journals into a book about the year after her husband's death, entitled  Field Notes From Grief: The First Year .","For more details on Dr. Stitzel's professional career, please ask a curator for her curriculum vitae.","These records document the professional life of Judith Gold Stitzel, professor of English and Women's Studies at West Virginia University. They include materials relative to her own education, her career at West Virginia University, her public and professional service, her publications and speeches, and her many awards and honors. These papers also detail the development of Women's Studies as part of the curriculum at West Virginia University. ","The collection includes extensive incoming and outgoing correspondence files that Dr. Stitzel maintained, some of which she arranged by correspondent and some of which she arranged by date, depending on the extent of her correspondence with an individual. These files include official correspondence and some personal correspondence. The collection also includes many letters of recommendation which were written for students, colleagues, and friends, as well as letters of support that she wrote for colleagues going through the promotion and tenure process at West Virginia University. These letters attest to the role that Dr. Stitzel played as advisor, counselor, and friend to current and former students, staff, and faculty at WVU, and elsewhere, throughout her career.","Dr. Stitzel's papers also include syllabi and course materials for a wide variety of courses, from introductory English composition to the senior capstone course in women's studies, as well as files that she kept on topics of current interest to her, with her comments on these topics.","Series 1.

In 1959, Bhaktipada graduated from Maryville College magna cum laude and received a Woodrow Wilson Fellowship to pursue a doctorate in American history at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill. Bhaktipada remained at North Carolina for three years before dropping out of school in 1961 due an alleged \"sex scandal\" involving a student.","Bhaktipada and his partner Howard Wheeler moved to New York City, where in 1966, they met A.C. Bhaktivedanta Swami Prabhupada, founder of the International Society for Krishna Consciousness (ISKCON). This religious movement is more commonly termed \"Hare Krishna\" and is a denomination of Hinduism. Bhaktipada became Bhaktivedanta's student and devotee, and later became an influential leader in the movement himself. Bhaktipada and Wheeler relocated to Marshall County, West Virginia and leased land near the town of Moundsville. Throughout the 1970s and 1980s, the land was purchased and developed as the community of New Vrindaban, with Bhaktipada as its spiritual leader.","Bhaktipada and New Vrindaban were the source of many controversies, both internally and externally. Bhaktipada was expelled by ISKCON in 1987, and New Vrindaban itself was also expelled the following year. Bhaktipada was indicted by a federal grand jury in 1990 on charges of mail fraud and racketeering. Although he was initially found guilty, his conviction was vacated on the basis of prejudicial testimony. In 1994, Bhaktipada was offered a plea bargain, which he refused. At the 1996 retrial, he ultimately pleaded guilty to one count of mail fraud and served time in jail from 1996 until 2004. He moved to India in 2008, where he died in October 2011 at age 74 after a period of illness.","Henry Doktorski  served as New Vrindaban's Music Director from 1986-1993. In 1994, Doktorski relocated to Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania to pursue his Masters Degree in Music Composition. Since then, he has performed with several symphony orchestras and performed solo accordion recitals across the country.","In 2018, Doktorski completed his first non-fiction book about Hare Krishna history,  Killing for Krishna: The Danger of Deranged Devotion . Since then, he has published eleven more books about New Vrindaban and the Hare Krishnas, which have been the subject of a seven-part podcast series. Doktorski currently resides in California.","Some materials in this collection were sourced from the New Vrindaban property; others were created by Henry Doktorski in the course of his research.","This collection contains records pertaining to the community of New Vrindaban in Marshall County, West Virginia and its founder Kirtanananda Bhaktipada Swami (Keith Gordon Ham), a member of the International Society for Krishna Consciousness (ISKCON) or \"Hare Krishna\" religious movement, until his expulsion in 1987. Compiled by Henry Doktorski, a former resident of New Vrindaban and author of several books on the subject, the collection includes records which provide insight into daily life in the commune, such as committee meeting minutes, housing contracts and behavioral guidelines for devotees. There are also audio recordings and written transcripts of meditation sessions and other spiritual practices.","The collection also delves into legal records, press coverage, court transcripts, witness testimony and evidence from multiple criminal and civil cases involving the New Vrindaban commune, several members, and its leader, Bhaktipada. Court transcripts include testimony from devotees revealing intimate details of New Vrindaban society. For example, due to the prominent role of devotee women on fundraising roadtrips, those researching the treatment of women at New Vrindaban might be interested in witness testimony from the 1991 racketeering trial.","The materials appear in a variety of formats, including papers, photographs, slides, cassettes, audio reels and artifacts, such as beads and clothing items.","This collection includes graphic crime scene photos and descriptions of domestic violence and child abuse that may be harmful or difficult to view.","Organization:","The collection is organized into twelve series.","Series 1: New Vrindaban, Records (1967-2015) – Papers related to the daily operation and organization of the New Vrindaban commune in Moundsville, West Virginia.
