Autorenporträt
Kip Lornell began investigating American vernacular music in 1970, resulting in scores of publications, record projects, and films. He has received research grants from (among others) the Wenner-Gren Foundation, Virginia Commission for the Arts, NEA, and NEH. Additionally Dr. Lornell served as a Postdoctoral Fellow at Smithsonian Folkways from 1988-90, won the 1993 ASCAP Deems-Taylor book award for The Life and Legend of Leadbelly (co-authored with Charles K. Wolfe) and the 1997 Grammy for "Album Notes Writer" for his contribution to Smithsonian Folkways' Anthology of American Folk Music. In 2020 the Association for Recorded Sound Collection (ARSC) awarded him a Lifetime Achievement Award. In May 2023, Dr. Lornell retired from teaching courses in American music and ethnomusicology at George Washington University after 31 years. He currently serves as the Executive Director of the Beltway Region Volleyball Officials, is Senior Lecturer of Music at American University, and is working on his 20th book, a co-authored exploration of "race record" advertisements from the 1920s.
