Biographical/historical note

Edward Truman Funkhouser (1946- ) has been a professor of speech and communication at NC State University since 1977. He has also served as an administrator in the university’s College of Humanities and Social Sciences. He holds a B.S. from Madison College, an M.A. from Memphis State University, and a Ph.D. from Ohio University. He has been the public address announcer for NC State football and women's basketball games. His interest in photography has resulted in the creation of thousands of images of the NC State campus; Raleigh, North Carolina; and other locales.

Funkhouser was born in Harrisonburg, Virginia, on 5 February 1946. Raised in Mount Jackson, Virginia, he graduated from Madison College (later James Madison University) with a B.S. in business administration in 1968. After serving in the United States Army as a military intelligence agent until 1971, he received an M.A. in radio, television, and film from Memphis State University (later the University of Memphis) in 1973, and a Ph.D. in mass communications from Ohio University in 1979.

Funkhouser joined the faculty of North Carolina State University in 1977, subsequently becoming an associate professor of speech and communication. Thrice named outstanding teacher in the Department of Communication, he also served as associate department head (1991-1996). For the university's College of Humanities and Social Sciences, he was assistant dean and director of undergraduate programs (1996-2002), facilities coordinator (1996-2011) and associate dean for academic affairs (2007-2010). He was also a member of the university's Campus Design Review Board.

A recipient of the university's Outstanding Extension Service Award in 1991, Funkhouser was a founder and president of Triangle Radio Reading Service, an independent non-profit corporation established in 1983 to provide news from print media to visually-impaired persons in the region. In addition, he was the "Voice of the Pack"--the public address announcer for NC State football and women's basketball games. His interest in photography has resulted in the creation of thousands of images of the NC State campus; Raleigh, North Carolina; and other locales.

Scope/content

The Edward T. Funkhouser Photographs consists of color photographs depicting the campus of North Carolina State University and nearby areas of Raleigh, North Carolina, 2001-2021. All of the photos were taken by Ed Funkhouser. Seven albums contain 922 photographic prints, 2001-2003, grouped by subject. One folder contains 44 prints, 2003, of the original press box at Carter-Finley Stadium, which was replaced by the C. Richard Vaughn Towers in 2005. A folder of photographs concerning the replacement of the power system at the William Neal Reynolds Coliseum, 2005, is a Microsoft PowerPoint presentation printed on bond paper. One folder contains a holiday card from the North Carolina State University Libraries featuring one of Funkhouser's photographs, as well as a short professional profile of Funkhouser, 2003. Also included here are images of Fayetteville, NC, sites (Gen. Shelton statue, Veterans Park, Bragg Boulevard), 2014.

Most of the collection is comprised of digital images (more than 7700) in JPG format, on CDs and DVDs. One CD, 2003, contains 250 digital images, mostly corresponding to photographs in the albums of prints, along with other elements of a World Wide Web site maintained by Funkhouser, devoted to his photos of the North Carolina State University campus. Additional disks contain images Funkhouser took around campus in 2004-2015. Topics include campus buildings, campus landscapes and scenes, construction projects, student activities, and scenes around Raleigh. There are photographs of Barack Obama's visits to campus, the annual Shack-A-Thon on the Brickyard, and Hillsborough Street.

Use of these materials

The nature of the NC State University Libraries' Special Collections means that copyright or other information about restrictions may be difficult or even impossible to determine despite reasonable efforts. The NC State University Libraries claims only physical ownership of most Special Collections materials.

The materials from our collections are made available for use in research, teaching, and private study, pursuant to U.S. Copyright law. The user must assume full responsibility for any use of the materials, including but not limited to, infringement of copyright and publication rights of reproduced materials. Any materials used for academic research or otherwise should be fully credited with the source.

This collection may contain materials with sensitive or confidential information that is protected under federal or state right to privacy laws and regulations. Researchers are advised that the disclosure of certain information pertaining to identifiable living individuals represented in this collection without the consent of those individuals may have legal ramifications (e.g., a cause of action under common law for invasion of privacy may arise if facts concerning an individual's private life are published that would be deemed highly offensive to a reasonable person) for which North Carolina State University assumes no responsibility.
