Abstract: The purpose of this study was to investigate how Alice Bivins, Grace Van Dyke More, and Birdie Holloway, former University of North Carolina at Greensboro faculty women, influenced the development of music education in North Carolina from 1917 to 1965. Biographical information was obtained on each woman which established their educational and professional background, identified special teachers and professional associates, revealed philosophies which influenced their careers, and determined special interests in music education. Information for this study was collected through personal interviews with colleagues, students, and relatives of Bivins, More, and Holloway and an interview with Birdie Holloway and her sister, Gladys Holloway. Information was also obtained from state and national music education and general education journals, conference proceedings, club and committee minutes, speeches, masters theses, doctoral dissertations, books, yearbooks, personnel files, personal letters, newspaper articles, personal records, and obituaries.
