Scope and Contents: The William Lee Keene Papers, consisting of one box containing speeches and writings of Mr Keene from 1928-1975, were donated to the Archives by Keene's daughters, Mrs. Kathryn Kearns and Mrs. Alice Garnache, in 1982. While the collection is small, it is representative of the material which Mr. Keene wrote or composed for speaking. All of these are fine examples of Mr. Keene's unique ability.
