His documentary tells the inspiring story of a gifted woman\u2019s triumph over prejudice and preconceptions. In 1933, Little Rock native Florence Price made music history when she became the first African-American woman to have her music performed by a major orchestra.<\/p>\n<p>The mission of the Kathleen Mallory Distinguished Lecture Series is to honor Dr. Mallory\u2019s many contributions to Southern Arkansas University, to the community, and to the state of Arkansas. This is done by bringing scholars working in the fields of African Diasporic and African American Studies to SAU to share their scholarship with students, faculty, staff, and members of the community.<\/p>\n<p>To contribute to the Kathleen Mallory Distinguished Lecture Series endowment fund, please contact Tucker at (870) 235-4214 or Jeanie Bismark at (870) 235-4078.
