Sarah Boyd Little, 94, is an African American gospel singer who grew up in Scots Run, West Virginia. When she was in high school, Littles choir sang for President Roosevelt at the White House. Little still performs in the group Al Anderson and Friends, and is active in the Scots Run community. I spoke with her and West Virginia University art professor Eve Faulkes at Faulkes home in Morgantown. This interview is part of a collection of interviews conducted with Scotts Run natives/residents and/or members of the Scotts Run Museum.
