Biographical / Historical
Will Davis Campbell was born on an 80-acre farm in Amite County, Mississippi in 1924. He was the second son born to Lee Webb and Hancie Bea Parker Campbell, and spent his early years in and around the East Fork community in rural Southwest Mississippi. Will graduated from East Fork High School at age sixteen, and was ordained a Baptist minister when he was barely seventeen. He attended Louisiana College, a Baptist College, in Pineville, Louisiana until he enlisted in the Army in 1943.
In the United States Army, Will served in the Southwest Pacific as a surgical assistant in World War II. It was here that he encountered people from other religious and cultural backgrounds, and read a book called "Freedom Road" that opened his eyes to the growing racial problem that existed in America at the time.
After World War II, Will attended Wake Forest, Tulane, and Yale Universities on the G.I. Bill to complete his education. He accepted a position as Minister of a small Baptist Church in Taylor, Louisiana shortly after graduating from Yale Divinity School in 1952. This was to be his first and only pastorate. Finding the work "too repressive," he resigned his post after eighteen months.
Will became the Director of Religious Activities and Chaplain at the University of Mississippi in 1954. While at Ole Miss, Will was involved in a number of controversies, including "racial mixing," and decided to resign after only two and a half years. He accepted a position with the National Council of Churches, working in race relations.
With the National Council of Churches, he traveled around the South to help wherever he was needed. This work took Will to many "hot spots" of racial confrontation, and it was his job to prevent violence by providing spiritual guidance and counseling to those involved in the controversies. In 1957, Will was one of four people who escorted the "Little Rock 9" when they tried to integrate the high school in Little Rock, Arkansas. He was also the only white person present at the first meeting (and founding) of Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr.'s Southern Christian Leadership Conference (SCLC).
Feeling that the National Council of Churches was too structured, and beginning to have differing opinions and ideals, Will separated himself from the organization in 1963 to become the Director of the Committee of Southern Churchmen (formerly the Fellowship of Southern Churchmen), where he worked until the late 1970s. The organization was involved in many race-related projects and published a rather liberal periodical called "Katallagete" that showcased Will's first love-writing.
From the 1960s to the present, Will Campbell has been best known for his writing and lecturing. The author of seventeen books, and numerous articles and sermons, Will Campbell has won the Lillian Smith Book Award, Richard Wright Prize for Literary Excellence, and was a National Book Award Finalist for his most famous work, Brother to a Dragonfly. He received the degree Doctor of Philosophy Honoris Causa from USM on December 17, 1999, becoming only the second person in the history of the institution to receive an honorary degree. Will was also presented the National Humanities Medal by President Clinton in December of 2000.
Will is married to Brenda Fisher, his companion for over 50 years, and they have three children and four grandchildren. At this writing the couple resides on their 50 plus acre farm in Mt. Juliet, Tennessee where Will continues to write and lecture.
