Abstract

Peggy Sheffield Parks was an alumnus of the University of Southern California and an accomplished pianist. This small collection documents her activities as a student at USC between 1948 and 1953 through photographs, handwritten notes, and newspaper clippings. Many of the activities include sorority functions, football games, and other social functions. There are also two El Rodeo yearbooks, 1950 and 1951. One of the yearbooks contains a program for a music recital starring Sheffield as the pianist under the tutelage of John Crown.
