Staff The Larry Donnell Kimmons Memorial Book Collection is devoted to the memory of Larry Kimmons, who on March 12, 1969, was tragically shot and killed by a security guard on the George Pepperdine College campus. Each year since 2019, a volume has been added to the Pepperdine Special Collections in memory of Larry Kimmons, and in conjunction with the Larry Kimmons Memorial Lecture Series hosted by Pepperdine. The collection consists of limited edition and rare printings of notable works by Black writers and poets, which through the Libraries' Boone Special Collections and Archives, are available to students, faculty, and staff. To date, there are four books in the collection, and a fifth one will be dedicated in March 2024. Wed, 28 Feb 2024 11:49:06 -0800 c7d864ee-7b1a-4900-84d1-f9cadc0ec903
