Biography
Don Larew, Professor of Theatre Arts, received his B.S. in Applied Arts, interior design emphasis, from Iowa State University in 1963. During the summer of 1963 he took an interior design seminar at the Parsons School of Design, New York City. In 1969 he completed his MFA in Dramatic Arts, scenic design and technical direction emphasis from the University of Iowa. Additionally he took a Master Class in Scenic Painting in 1976 from the University of Iowa.

Don joined NDSU in 1969 as an instructor, was appointed assistant professor in 1971, received tenure in 1974, associate professor in 1978, and professor in 1986. In addition to his responsibilities as a teacher and student advisor, he is currently the Artistic Director and Designer for the Little Country Theater (LCT). He has also served as Theatre Arts Coordinator, Director of Theatre, Technical Director of LCT, Scenic Designer/Technical Director of the North Dakota Repertory Theatre, as well as the Scenic and Costume Designer/Technical Director of NDSU’s Prairie Stage Touring Company.

In 1999 he received the American College Theatre Festival (ACTF) Meritorious Achievement Award for his scenic design of Something’s Afoot.

He was awarded the American College Theatre Festival Meritorious Achievement Award for his scenic design and painting for Helen of Troy in 1991.

Don served as the faculty advisor to the NDSU chapter of Delta Upsilon for nearly thirty years. In 2004 Don received the prestigious Founder’s Medal from Delta Upsilon International Fraternity. In 2002 the chapter put his name in for an international award and in July he was awarded the Delta Upsilon International Fraternity Chairman’s Honorable Mention Award for Outstanding Alumni Volunteer of the Year.

During his tenure at NDSU, Don has served on the search committee for the Coordinator of Greek Life & Student Organizations; as a Greek Advisory Committee member; Search Committees for Division Director and on the PTE committee; chaired the Theatre Acting/Directing Search committee; served as a member of the KDSU Advisory Board; was a Design Consultant for the NDSU Madrigal Dinners; was the Design Co-Chair of the NDSU Centennial Display committee; a member of the Lincoln Log Cabin Restoration committee; as well as serving on and chairing numerous other committees and boards.

He was president of the Fargo Moorhead Heritage Society; on the board of the Probstfield Living History Farm; served as a committee member of the Southeast Mental Health Association Mardi Gras Ball & FM Sympathy Ball; a co-presenter of a three day painting workshop for youth at the Plains Art Museum; a volunteer site supervisor for the Children’s Miracle Network Telethon; co-head of the Oak Grove Neighborhood Association; as well as numerous additional activities.

Scope & Contents
The collection is arranged in alphabetical order and/or chronological order, as received from the donor. The majority of the collection consists of drawings, plans, and files of set designs for Don’s productions at NDSU from 1969 through the present. There are also some swatches for costumes for a number of the productions and that information is noted at the folder level. There are also a number of oversized performance photographs and production posters.

The collection consists of eight distinct series. The first series, arranged chronologically, includes Professor Larew’s work before coming to NDSU (1951 to 1967), undated sketches and a resume (as of 4/2000). The second series is also arranged chronologically and consists of play files for productions performed from 1968 to 2002. Although different for each production, information in this series consists of (small) sketches, clippings, budgets, flyers, correspondence/memos, lighting, cast lists, schedules, swatches, awards received by Professor Larew, and other material related to mounting a production. The third series consists of plans and/or drawings from play productions that Professor Larew was involved with (arranged alphabetically). The fourth series are performance photographs from the mid-1950s on, arranged alphabetically; play slides from 1969 to 1995 make up the fifth series, which are arranged chronologically. The sixth series consists of copyright material from Sceno-Graphics, a firm that Professor Larew has worked for since 1974. The material within this series provides an additional view of Professor Larew’s work and includes plans/drawings and rendering photograph for productions.

The seventh series deals with materials that are not directly related to theater productions, such as committee work, submissions for awards, memoranda, correspondence, and departmental matters. The final, eighth series, consists of oversized material from a variety of productions that Professor Larew has worked on; these are located in Map Case Drawer 2 (Moved to Range 1F): Fargo Moorhead Civic Opera - The New Moon; Lincoln Log Cabin; Centennial Proscenium &
Pavilion proposals – August 1989; lend ME A Tenor – New Rockford Theatre – summer 1991; Red River Dance & Performing Co. – 2 pages of piano sketches; and Checks, then Balances – original play by NDSU Alum Dan McDermott – design done gratis for Williston Theatre.

NOTE: Due to the nature of the various series and formats, very often one production will be found in a number of the series. For instance, George M! is found in the Plans/Drawing series; Performance Photograph series; Play Files; Sceno-Graphic Photographs; Play Slides; and ScenoGraphic Plans.
