ETHEL DE LONG ZANDE Writing and Publications Guide

The Ethel de Long Zande Writing and Publications GUIDE lists the writings and talks in the PMSS Archive by Ethel de Long Zande, co-founder and co-director of Pine Mountain Settlement School from 1913 to 1928. Also noted are associated materials held 

A prolific writer and a consummate wordsmith, Ethel de Long  Zande often wrote important fund-raising letters for the institutions for which she worked. Her appeals for funding for Pine Mountain are full of her enthusiasm for the new School and her new role as a founder. Her letters were often very personal and they worked well for the School in its early years. The early letters were very effective in shaping perceptions of the new Settlement School at Pine Mountain and opening a window to the surrounding Appalachian community cultures. Her often very personal messages to key institutional donors were enormously successful in raising needed funding during the early years of Pine Mountain Settlement School.  

Her observations were sharp and to the point about the community work needed on-site and the educational role of the new school. Her ideas, writing, and publications helped to both shape and reshape current ideas and perceptions of Appalachia with a broad range of correspondents. While she was focused on funding and building the educational programs of the new School, she was also supporting efforts to build its physical plant and a road to the School’s location. In both efforts, her persuasive skills can be seen.

Those who had the privilege to work with her were rarely under a neutral gaze as she always set the pace and the bar very high. Always an educator, she found every opportunity to try to lift up all those who worked with her and to promote their educational opportunities, cooperation, and uplift for the communities served by the Settlement School she was charged with developing. Her powerful personality shines brightly through her writing and her publications.
