Scope and Contents

From the Collection: The photographs in this collection document the personal life and times of author Frank O'Rourke, his immediate family, and the families of his mother and father. A vital part of this collection is the several photo albums provided that cover a substantial period of time in the early lives of the parents of Frank O'Rourke and the early life of O'Rourke himself. Also documented is a flood in Homer, Nebraska and it's effects. Cover images of three O'Rourke novels are included. The majority of the photographs are in good condition except for the earliest of the photo albums which are in fragile condition because of their age.
