Subject: RE: Review: Jimmy Scribner - who is he?
I remember listening to Jimmy Scribner on WAIM radio, Anderson, SC, in the 1950's. He read Uncle Remus stories about Brer Rabbit, and Brer Fox, etc. I also remember living near his home, and visiting it a few times as a kid, with some other kids, where we met this girl about our age or a bit younger, and she was his daughter. She showed us his studio, in a separate building. I remember a lot of graphics, drawings, and such. A drafting table, and a microphone. That was in Anderson, SC. I will not list the address, because I don't want to dox anybody. I will say that it was near the Singer Sewing Machine factory which was on the Pearman Dairy Road.

I don't ever remember an adult being there. This little girl was always home alone when we went over there. We were just kids, maybe 10-12 years old. There was a lot of woods near the home, and it was a fun place for kids to play and explore. My memory could be faulty, but that is what I remember. I would love to find out more about this, if that was in fact the Scribner home, and is my memory correct.
