Biographical Note
Born in America, Oklahoma, Dollarhide grew up in Kosciusko. He earned a bachelor's degree in English from Mississippi College in 1942. In 1942 Dollarhide served a short stint in the U.S. Army Air Corps. Subsequently, he earned a master's degree from Harvard University in 1947 and a doctorate from the University of North Carolina in 1954. He taught English at Mississippi College for 20 years before joining the Ole Miss faculty in 1967.
He retired from the university in December 1987
From courses on John Milton to seminars on Eudora Welty and Tennessee Williams, Dollarhide lectured to thousands of students during his 40 years of teaching.
His scholarly works and writings of fiction and non-fiction appeared in numerous publications throughout his career. Of Art and Artists: Selected Reviews of the Arts in Mississippi, a collection of some 250 of his newspaper columns compiled in 1981, is among the many books, short stories, articles and poems he authored. He also co-edited a book of essays titled Eudora Welty: A Form of Thanks.
Dollarhide served as editor for the Mississippi Arts Commission and as president of the Mississippi Poetry Society. For many years, he chaired the UM Artist Series, and from 1955 to 1976 he wrote a weekly column and more than 1,000 book reviews and articles for The Jackson Daily News-Clarion Ledger.
Dollarhide died in January of 2004.
