BIOGRAPHICAL/HISTORICAL NOTE
Thomas Harry Williams (1909-1979) was a Professor of History at Louisiana State University,
Baton Rouge, from 1941 until his retirement in May of 1979. A scholar and prolific writer, he
authored numerous books, articles, and book reviews. He was a distinguished and popular
faculty member and a superb public speaker. He was active in several historical associations and
received many awards and honors.
Williams was born in Illinois. His mother, Emma Necollins Williams, died before he was two
years old. Soon after her death, T. Harry Williams and his father, William D. Williams, moved
to Hazel Green, Wisconsin to live with his paternal grandparents. In 1952, T. Harry Williams
married Estelle Skolfield Williams. He had one stepdaughter, Mai Frances Doles.
He received his early education in the local schools of Hazel Green, Wisconsin. In 1931 he
received a bachelor’s degree in education from Platteville State Teachers College, Wisconsin.
Unable to find a teaching job, he entered graduate school that year at the University of
Wisconsin to study history. While at the University of Wisconsin, he studied under William B.
Hesseltine and earned at Master’s degree (1932) and Ph.D. (1937) in history. Williams began
teaching history in the Extension Department of the University of Wisconsin in 1936. He then
taught at the University of Omaha from 1938 until 1941. He began teaching at Louisiana State
University in the fall of 1941.
Williams was awarded the title of Boyd Professor in 1953. He was an enthusiastic and
stimulating classroom lecturer and spoke to overflow crowds of students. In 1979 the L.S.U.
Board of Supervisors established the T.Harry Williams Chair of American History. In that same
year, the T. Harry Williams Scholarship Fund was created. Among his many academic honors
were; Doctor of Law, Northland College (1953); Guggenheim Fellow (1957); Doctor of Letters,
Bradley University (1959); Harry S. Truman Award in Civil War History (1964); Harmsworth
Professor of American History, Queen’s College, Oxford England (1966-1967); Doctor of
Humane Letters, Loyola University (1974); and Doctor of Humane Letters, Tulane University
(1979).
He described himself as a “narrative historian,” meaning he wrote and lectured for the general
reader and listener. His first book, Lincoln and the Radicals, was published by the University of
Wisconsin Press in 1941. Williams published more than fifteen books from 1941 until 1979.
Two books were published after his death. In 1969, Williams received much acclaim for his
book, Huey Long. In this book he used the new research technique of oral history. Williams
was awarded the National Book Award and the Pulitzer Prize for Huey Long.
Williams served as President of the Southern Historical Association (1958-1959) and
Organization of American Historians (1972-1973).
He was a guest lecturer at numerous
colleges, universities, historical associations, and Civil War Round Tables.
