Birth Date October 20, 1937 Birthplace Demopolis, Alabama Occupation Writer, professor emeritus Biographical Text Born October 20, 1937, William Cobb is a novelist, playwright, and professor emeritus at the University of Montevallo. He taught Southern literature at Montevallo starting in the fall of 1963, when the school was Alabama College, remaining on campus until his retirement in 2000, which included 13 years as “writer-in-residence”. Cobb received his undergraduate degree from the University of West Alabama, then Livingston State College. His master’s in creative writing from Vanderbilt University in Nashville. While at Montevallo he defined himself as someone who “wasn’t a scholar, but whatever they needed teaching, I was willing to do it. I loved literature and I loved teaching.” In 1965 he married Loretta Douglas, now Loretta Cobb, and together they have one child. Cobb struggled with alcoholism for 20 years after his marriage, and was largely unsuccessful in publication attempts for his short stories and novels, eventually entering into a rehabilitation program and becoming sober in the early 1980s. Later in this decade he would see three of his plays produced in New York City. While employed by the University of Montevallo, Cobb published six novels, a collection of short stories, and several plays. Much of his work focuses on racial strife, and is marked by its dark comedy, and Southern gothic qualities. His first novel, published in 1984, was Coming of Age at the Y. His most acclaimed novel, A Walk Through Fire, came in 1992, and explores racial tensions in the American South. Cobb has earned a number of awards for his short stories, including two Hackney Literary Awards from Birmingham-Southern College, a recognition for best fiction in 1984 from the Sucarnochee Review, and the Alabama Writer’s Forum’s Harper Lee award in 2007.

Birth Date January 27, 1905 Birthplace Prattville, Alabama Death Date April 4, 1985 Occupation Professor Biographical Text A native of Prattville, Alabama, Dr. Eva Olivia Golson was one of three children. She received her A.B. from Huntington College in 1923, then the Woman’s College of Alabama. She was also the first woman to receive a PhD in English from the University of Chicago, and served as a professor at the University of Montevallo for 45 years. Her dissertation was titled “The Spelling System of the Glasgow Ms of The Canterbury Tales”. While at Montevallo, she helped spearhead the Honor’s Program, which named the senior seminar after her once she retired. She was also the faculty member to second the motion made by Dr. Hallie Farmer on October 13, 1955 to make Alabama College coeducational, a move that ended the era of an all woman’s college and ushered it into a new existence. (Alabama College 1896-1969 Pg 119) She is described by Norman McMillan, former chair of the English department, as having “a style all her own, and a splendid style to be sure” and that her writing was full of “quintessential Golsoniana—the wit, the warmth, the irony, the style.” (April 4, 1985) Dr. Golson had a passion for horticulture, often discussing the flowers in bloom on campus in her newsletters. She was responsible for weekly newsletters that she typed and edited, discussing campus culture, the comings and goings of English faculty, the flora of the campus, and other notable happenings. They serve as vignettes into Montevallo’s everyday past, allowing glimpses into the social and mechanical happenings of the department and campus.
