He was then hired in 1985 to teach West Virginian and Appalachian History at West Virginia University.  He earned emeritus status in 2008.  He has authored many books, earned several awards, and was a Fulbright-Hayes Commission Award Recipient.","This collection contains materials of various formats used and created by historian Dr. Ronald Lewis throughout his career. There are records and course materials from classes taught by Dr. Lewis at the University of Delaware and, primarily, at West Virginia University (WVU). It includes other documents relating to his work as a faculty advisor to graduate students in WVU's history department. There is extensive documentation of his research, most of which was done on Appalachian history and West Virginia coal mining, including articles he has written, facsimiles of primary and secondary sources used in his research, and A/V materials like oral histories. Records generated from Dr. Lewis's scholarly activities are included, such as book and article reviews and conference presentations. There are also materials relating to his other professional pursuits, such as his membership in historical organizations and correspondence with other professionals in the field. This collection provides a broad overview of the work of an historian in an academic institution.The dates provided are reflective of material creation, except within the Welsh Miners and Scott's Run subseries. These dates, listed in folder titles, reflect the content and were determined by the donor when he created and titled these files. Please be aware that the dates may not be accurate for every item within the folder/box but rather reflect the general timeframe of the subject matter.Born digital and audiovisual materials exist within the collection as floppy disks, CDs, DVDs, VHS tapes, and cassettes.Addendum of 2024 May 29 includes similar materials but reflects Dr. Lewis's more recent work. There are materials relating to his work as a professor and faculty member, the development of two books and other publications, and documentation of his career. Common formats include lecture notes, facsimiles of research sources, and correspondence; digital materials exist within the addendum as floppy disks, zip disks, and CDs.","A group of bound dissertations has been separated at the donor's request. They were written from 1990-2009 and focus on West Virginia-related historical subjects. Dr. Lewis served on the dissertaion committee for each.

Series and subseries have only been imposed where they accurately categorize the initial physical arrangement, allowing for the majority of Lewis's organization to remain intact. The imposed series — 1. Teaching, 2. Research and Scholarly Activity, and 3. Professional Service and Additional Career Materials — were chosen to represent the three main facets of university faculty work. Series 4 is comprised of an addendum received in 2024, and subseries have been imposed based on the existing series structure.","Many of the folder titles within this collection, including in the addendum, were created by Dr. Lewis and incorporated as-is during archival arrangement. He frequently utilized abbreviations and acronyms, especially in reference to academic institutions and professional organizations.","This collection includes a formerly separate WVRHC collection (A\u0026M 3634, Ronald Lewis, Historian, Research Notes Regarding Timber Industry in West Virginia).

He focused on regional studies, especially Appalachian history.  His first teaching opportunity was at the University of Delaware as an assistant professor from 1974 to 1985, where he focused primarily on the intersection of race and labor in the United States.  He was then hired in 1985 to teach West Virginian and Appalachian History at West Virginia University.  He earned emeritus status in 2008.  He has authored many books, earned several awards, and was a Fulbright-Hayes Commission Award Recipient.","This collection contains materials of various formats used and created by historian Dr. Ronald Lewis throughout his career.

He received his Ph.D. in political science from the University of Chicago in 1950, where he studied under Hans J. Morgenthau, and subsequently held teaching positions at the University of Chicago and Northwestern University.","From 1955 to 1975, Thompson worked in international education and philanthropy, serving as vice president for international programs at the Rockefeller Foundation. He joined the faculty of the University of Virginia in 1975 as Commonwealth Professor of Government and Foreign Affairs and became director of the Miller Center of Public Affairs, a position he held until 1998.","During his tenure at the Miller Center, Thompson played a central role in shaping the institution's mission and programs, including the development of the Presidential Oral History Program, the Forum Program, and a series of bipartisan national commissions addressing issues such as presidential disability and the federal judicial selection process. His leadership contributed significantly to the study of the American presidency, public policy, and political history at the University of Virginia.","Thompson authored and edited numerous works on international relations, foreign policy, and political thought, and was a key figure in sustaining and advancing classical realist tradition in the twentieth century. His scholarship emphasized the importance of historical context, moral complexity, and the balance of power in international affairs.","This is the second half of this collection. You can find a guide to the first half of the collection at this web address: https://ead.lib.virginia.edu/vivaxtf/view?docId=uva-sc/viu03323.xml","The Kenneth W. Thompson Papers document the professional activities of Kenneth W. Thompson, particularly his tenure as director of the Miller Center of Public Affairs from 1978 to 1998. The collection consists primarly of correspondence, along with writings and materials related to conferences, lectures, and institutional planning.","The Correspondence series, which comprises the majority of the collection, includes exchanges with prominent political figures and scholars such as Henry Kissinger, Richard Nixon, Condoleezza Rice, and David Rockefeller. These materials reflect Thompson's role in fostering dialogue on political thought, ethics, and public policy.","Additional materials include newspaper and magazine clippings, annual meeting files, lecture and conference materials, addresses, invitations, and institutional documents such as the Miller Center's Ten Year Plan and Executive Summary.","The collection is organized into two series: Correspondence and Writings and Professional Activities, and dates from 1972 to 1999.","Because of the assembled nature of this collection, copyright status varies across the collection.

Researchers must contact the West Virginia \u0026 Regional History Center reference department in advance.","This collection has been organized by series, and original folder arrangement and titles were preserved when possible.","Kirtanananda Bhaktipada Swami (6 September 1937 - 24 October 2011) was born Keith Gordon Ham in Peekskill, New York to Marjorie (Clark) and the Reverend Francis Gordon Ham, a Baptist minister. 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.","Series 2: Kirtanananda Bhaktipada Swami, Personal Papers and Correspondence (1949-2011) – Essays, meditations and letters written by the Swami Bhaktipada, as well as personal papers from his childhood and early adulthood.","Series 3: Henry Doktorski, Research and Correspondence (1974-2020) – Personal notes, incoming and outgoing letters, and academic articles pertaining to Doktorski's research for several books on New Vrindaban and Swami Bhaktipada.","Series 4: Steven Bryant (Sulocana Das), Personal Papers and Correspondence (1970-1989) – Personal papers and writings about New Vrindaban by former devotee Steven Bryant prior to his murder in 1986.","Series 5: Court Records and Police Reports (1968-1999) – Legal documents and evidence from civil and criminal cases related to the Swami Bhaktipada and New Vrindaban, including racketeering, arson, and homicide.","Series 6: News Clippings (1966-2019) – Newspaper, magazine and journal articles related to the New Vrindaban commune and Swami Bhaktipada.","Series 7: New Vrindaban and ISKCON Publications (1952-2015) – Hare Krishna associated newsletters, magazines and journals.","Series 8: Audiovisual and Digital Media (1970-2011) – Cassettes, magnetic audio tape, VHS tapes, and additional formats of meetings and religious ceremonies at New Vrindaban and religious music.","Series 9: Photographs and Slides (1970s-1990s) – Print photographs and slides depicting life in the New Vrindaban commune as well as several trips to India.","Series 10: Artifacts – Items from the New Vrindaban commune, such as beads and clothing.","Series 11: Books and Unpublished Drafts – Books and drafts written about ISKCON and religious sects, writings by the founder of Hare Krishna, Swami Bhaktipada, Henry Doktorski, Howard Wheeler and various New Vrindaban devotees.","Series 12: Miscellaneous","Note to researchers - Most devotees of New Vrindaban possess both a legal name and a spiritual name that are used interchangeably.
