Isadore E. Lourie Papers
Former state senator Isadore E. Lourie has selected the South Caroliniana Library to receive his papers. One of the General Assembly's "young turks," Lourie played an important role in the South Carolina Senate for three decades and worked to pass legislation affecting such issues as the aged, consumer affairs, criminal justice, and tax reform. The Lourie papers should prove a rich source for the documentation of contemporary South Carolina. To date, Senator Lourie has transferred over thirty-seven feet of material to Modern Political Collections. Processing will await the anticipated receipt of additional papers.URL http://www.sc.edu/library/socar/uscs/1993/lourie93.html
