Biographical Note:
Journalist William D. Workman, Jr. is best remembered for his pivotal role in the
emergence of the Republican Party as a viable alternative to the Democratic Party in
South Carolina. In 1962, when the Democrats were the dominant political power in the
state, he made a serious bid for the U.S. Senate as a Republican. Although ultimately
unsuccessful, Workman received enough votes to signal to others of like mind that a
Republican could win a state-wide race.
William Douglas Workman, Jr., son of William Douglas and Vivian (Watkins)
Workman, was born in Greenwood, South Carolina on August 10, 1914. After
graduating from Greenville High School in 1931, Workman entered The Citadel where
he majored in English and History. Upon graduation in 1935, he moved to Washington,
D.C., to attend George Washington University Law School. Law school proved not to
his liking, and he returned to South Carolina where he began his career in journalism as a
reporter for the Charleston News and Courier. In addition to reporting for the News and
Courier, Workman also managed local radio station WTMA.
Workman was called to active duty by the U.S. Army in 1940. His wartime service as an
intelligence officer included tours in the United States, England, North Africa and the
Pacific. He was demobilized in 1945 and returned to South Carolina to resume his career
as a journalist. He remained active in the reserves and eventually retired from the
military in 1965 with the rank of colonel.
Upon his return to the News and Courier, Workman became capital correspondent in
Columbia. In addition to his position with the News and Courier, between 1945 and
1962, Workman wrote columns and articles for numerous other publications. These
included several newspapers around the state, Newsweek magazine, the Hall Syndicate,
and South Carolina Magazine. He also appeared regularly on WIS radio and TV in
Columbia.
Workman's skills as a researcher and writer were not limited to newspapers and broadcast
journalism. A strong believer in states’ rights and the virtues of the Southern culture,
Workman authored The Case for the South (1960), a statement of the South’s position on
integration, and The Bishop from Barnwell (1963), which looks at twentieth-century
South Carolina politics and the key role played therein by Senator Edgar A. Brown.
Workman utilized his first-hand experience as a reporter of the 1950s segregation battles
when he assisted in the writing of three additional books on the South and its way of life.
This Is The South (1959) is a Robert West Howard work on Southern civilization. With
All Deliberate Speed (1957) and Southern Schools: Progress and Problems (1959),
which were supported by the Southern Education Reporting Service, examine the issues
of segregation and desegregation in Southern schools.
Workman’s bold challenge to incumbent Senator Olin D. Johnston in 1962 ended the first phase
of his journalism career. A longtime conservative, the Republican Workman believed Johnston
was too closely aligned with the National Democratic Party and decided the people of South
Carolina deserved a Senator more in line with the conservative traditions of the state. In a
South Carolina Political Collections

speech accepting the Republican nomination, Workman said, “It is the Republican Party which
offers the best hope, and perhaps the last hope, of stemming the liberal tide which has been
sweeping the United States toward the murky depths of socialism. ... We must stop floating
along the stream of least resistance and get our feet back down on the firm ground of sound,
conservative, responsible government.” His campaign was the first significant Republican
challenge in an important statewide race since Reconstruction. Workman made a strong
showing, and earned forty-three percent of the vote. His effort, though unsuccessful, is credited
with establishing the structure for a viable Republican party in South Carolina.
Following the election, Workman accepted the position of assistant editor with The State paper
in Columbia. After he attained the post of editor in May 1966, Workman grew increasingly
restless with the administrative duties that required so much of his time. He relinquished the
editorship and its bureaucratic demands in 1972, to spend more time in research and writing.
Workman remained with the paper as an editorial analyst until his retirement in 1979. From
1980 to 1982, he wrote occasional articles under the title of editorial consultant. In 1981 he coauthored, with Claude R. Canup, Charles E. Daniel: His Philosophy and Legacy, a biography of
the founder of Greenville's Daniel Construction Company.
Workman’s activities and pursuits outside of journalism were often reflected in the subjects of
his articles. With his deep commitment to South Carolina and its people, the state’s history,
politics, and quality of life were of great interest to Workman.
In 1966 Workman agreed to Governor Robert McNair’s request that he assist the state’s
Constitutional Revision Committee. He served as the group’s secretary for the next three years.
The committee’s 1969 report led to significant changes in the operation of local and county
government, which had been under the centralized control of the county legislative delegations.
In keeping with his commitment to the people, especially the young people, of South Carolina,
Workman was active as a director of the James F. Byrnes Foundation. Established by the late
James F. Byrnes and his wife Maude in 1948, this organization provides college scholarship
funds and guidance counseling for qualified South Carolina orphans. Workman served as the
Foundation’s president from 1972-1985.
His retirement from The State in 1979 did not end Workman’s interest in politics or the wellbeing of his fellow citizens. In 1982, despite the onset of a mild form of Parkinson’s disease,
Workman ran for Governor against popular incumbent Dick Riley. Although close associates,
such as his 1962 campaign manager, J. Drake Edens, Jr., tried to dissuade him, Workman was
determined to offer the people of South Carolina an alternative. He believed he and Riley had
the same goals for South Carolina, but differed on the means of achieving them. In spite of
lukewarm financial support from the state and national Republican parties, Workman gained
31% of the vote in the loss to Riley. In a speech after the election, he said, “I’m glad I made the
fight. I've opened South Carolina to a lot of truisms. One is the need for a two-party system. It
would have been a fluke if I had won. All the cards were stacked against me, financial and name
recognition.”
After the 1982 election Workman quietly faded from public life. The Parkinson’s disease
gradually worsened, and on November 23, 1990, William D. Workman, Jr. passed away,

survived by his two children, son Bill III, a 1961 Citadel graduate and a mayor of Greenville,
S.C., daughter Dorrill ["Dee"] Workman, and four grandchildren.
Scope and Content Note:
The collection consists of 65 linear feet of material, 1915-1986, arranged in nine major series:
General Papers, Campaigns, Journalism, Personal Papers, Published Manuscripts, Speeches,
Topical Files, Clippings, and Audio-Visual Materials. When possible, Workman’s original
arrangement and file headings have been retained (i.e. Constitutional Reform, Integration/Civil
Rights). Some files have been rearranged, retitled, or combined for clarity and ease of use.
General Papers, 1933 to 1985, consists primarily of Workman’s correspondence with friends,
colleagues, Citadel classmates, wartime buddies, and admirers from around the country. Among
his regular correspondents were Citadel classmate and Charleston Evening Post editor Robert M.
Hitt, Jr., 1935 to 1968, and longtime friend and Nixon biographer Earl Mazo, 1952 to 1976.
Mazo, a fellow newspaperman, moved to the New York Herald Tribune after working at the
News and Courier with Workman. Letters pertaining primarily to politics or journalism, or to
specific persons or topics (such as Strom Thurmond or Energy) are found in the appropriate
series or subseries.
Campaign Files, 1939-1982, are significant for their breadth. Extensive records document
Workman’s 1962 Senate campaign. The series also contains newsletters and material regarding
other elections, conventions, and general coverage of the state and national Democratic and
Republican parties. Several files concern the States’ Rights Party and its campaigns in 1948 and
1956. There is an unusual example of campaign literature from the 1956 Presidential race—a
cartoon book titled “Forward with Eisenhower-Nixon: Let’s Continue Peace ... Prosperity ...
Progress.”
Journalism records chronicle Workman’s career from his days as a reporter on the Charleston
News and Courier to his term as editor of The State newspaper in Columbia. There are extensive
files documenting Workman’s efforts to produce three special historical editions of The State.
These commemorated South Carolina’s Tricentennial, the U.S. Bicentennial, and the Centennial
of the burning of Columbia during the Civil War. His last special edition, in 1978, was a survey
of the South Carolina state government titled South Carolina Digest.
Personal Papers contains family papers of Workman and his wife, including biographical data,
correspondence, 1915 to 1971, and records of Workman’s military career, 1931 to 1965, civic
activities, and financial affairs. Although the financial records are not comprehensive,
Workman’s financial affairs, 1956 to 1981, are documented by correspondence, tax returns and
ledgers of earnings and expenditures. Family members represented in the correspondence
include Workman’s parents, sister Virginia, wife Rhea, and her parents Ruth and Heber Thomas.
Of particular interest is an extensive series of letters from Heber Thomas [1889-1959], a native
of Crocketville and a longtime resident of Walterboro, to Thomas’ fiancée and later wife, Ruth
(Dorrill) Thomas. A private in the army during the First World War, Thomas received his
military training at Clemson in May and June of 1918, and at Camp Meade, Maryland. His unit
was sent overseas in August, 1918. Thomas served chiefly in France, with a field artillery unit of

the 79th Division of the American Expeditionary Force and later with the Army of Occupation.
His wartime letters reflect his loneliness and concern with duty. Shortly after his arrival in
France, Thomas wrote — “Our officers seem to think the war will not last long, but oh God I
wish it was all over so I could come back home.” (Aug. 15, 1918) A week later, still awaiting
his first taste of action, he wrote — “From what little news I can gather is that the Americans are
giving the Germans Hell and you can bet that we will keep it up. I presume it will be some time
before we go to the front. But when the word is said I will be up and ready to do my duty.”
(Aug. 23, 1918)
Heber and Ruth married in 1918. They had one daughter, Heber Rhea [1918-1988], known to
her family and friends as “Dimples,” and to Workman as “Tommie.” Workman and Rhea, a
Winthrop graduate, were married in June 1939. Eager to keep busy during Workman’s absence
in World War II, Rhea accepted an offer to be the supervisor of recreation for the Walterboro
WPA serviceman’s club. After the war, Rhea returned to school, and earned her M.A. and Ph.D.
in English at the University of South Carolina. From 1957 to 1977, Rhea taught English at
Columbia College.
Personal Papers also contains Rhea’s frequent letters to her parents while attending Winthrop in
the mid-1930s, and a considerable correspondence with Workman before and after their
marriage. Of special interest are Workman’s World War Two letters from England, 1942, North
Africa, 1942 to 1943, Hawaii, 1945, and posts in the states including Fort Bragg, NC, 1941,
Norfolk, VA, 1941 to 1942, Camp Davis, NC, 1943, Fort Leavenworth, KS, 1944, and Fort
Bliss, TX, 1944 to 1945. Although limited in what he could say because of censorship
regulations, Workman described for Rhea his impressions of the people and places he was
stationed. Her letters provide insight into life on the home front, the difficulties — “There have
been two more cases of polio this week...None of us are going to the movies or anywhere,” and
the lighter moments — “Tonight was a big night at the club...jittering, doing the double ‘Lindy
Hop’ no less!”
The post-war years were busy ones personally as well as professionally. In the mid-1950s
Workman and his wife became founding members of the Trenholm Road Methodist Church.
Correspondence documents his growing disenchantment with the policies of the church,
particularly in the areas of social and political affairs. In a 1972 letter to the Methodist Advocate
explaining his resignation as a delegate to the Southeastern Jurisdictional Conference of the
Methodist Church, Workman stated — “the actions and pronouncements at the 1972 General
Conference make it impossible for me to profess adherence to the prevailing course of presentday Methodism.... The church so blatantly repudiated United States policy in national and
international affairs as to grievously offend my sense of loyalty to country....” In a related letter,
Workman further expressed his disenchantment with the church — “I fear that the magnitude
and the momentum of liberal extremism in the United Methodist Church have reached the point
of no return.”
Personal Papers also documents Workman’s thirty years of military service as an intelligence
officer during World War II and as a Reservist. Among the files is a series of sixty-one World
War II aircraft recognition cards from London’s Valentine & Sons and a bound volume of
America’s Alertmen, 1942, a weekly newspaper for the Antiaircraft Artillery Command, Eastern
Theater of Operations.

Published Manuscripts includes material pertaining to Workman’s writing and publication of
several books. Among these are the original and revised versions of the manuscript for The Case
for the South, correspondence with the publisher, and reaction letters from readers across the
country. Newspaper coverage, including book reviews, is located here and in the Clippings files.
Other publications with materials in this series include The Bishop from Barnwell, Southern
Schools: Progress and Problems, and With All Deliberate Speed.
Workman, an articulate speaker, spoke to groups throughout the state on a wide variety of topics.
His Speech files include texts of remarks and “charts” on which he recorded the date, place,
group, attendance, topic, amount of honorarium and the person who invited him to speak.
Topical Files is a broad series containing correspondence and background information on
subjects of personal and professional interest to Workman. These include Constitutional
Reform, Education, Electoral Reform, Energy, and a particularly rich and informative
Integration/Civil Rights subseries. Persons files regard thirty-seven individuals with whom
Workman corresponded or in whom he had some special interest. Local, state, and national
figures include William F. Buckley, Jr., Generals Mark Clark and William Westmoreland, Strom
Thurmond, Judge J. Waties Waring, Lester Bates and J[ohn] K. Breedin. The Thomas Family
file consists of stories compiled by Ruth Thomas about her youth and family.
The Ernest F. Hollings files contain Workman’s notes from Hollings’ gubernatorial press
conferences, 1959-1961, gubernatorial campaign of 1958, and primary campaign for the
Democratic nomination for the U.S. Senate in 1962 (including transcripts of television
appearances). The George Bell Timmerman and Donald Russell files also contain gubernatorial
press conference notes and speeches.
Clippings are arranged topically and parallel the other series to a certain extent. This series is a
rich source of contemporary information on a wide range of subjects. Included are Workman's
editorials from The State, coverage of political campaigns and parties, and state government, and
files on a large number of individuals. This series concludes with a set of twelve scrapbooks
titled “South Carolina By-Lines, 1946-1963,” in which Workman preserved copies of his
articles.
Audio-Visual Materials is primarily composed of photographs and photographic negatives by
Workman. Numerous photos document the 1962 Senate campaign. An accomplished
photographer, in 1984 a retrospective of his work was mounted at the Columbia Museum of Art.
An assortment of prints selected for the retrospective, sponsored by Springs Industries, are
present.
Sixty-five audio recordings, chiefly political in nature, provide a chance to hear key figures in
modern southern political history, among them Herman E. Talmadge, Sen. Edgar A. Brown, and
George Wallace. The earliest tape in the collection is a 1938 recording of a campaign speech by
“Cotton Ed” Smith. There are several tapes from rallies and other events held during
Workman’s 1962 Senate campaign. The recordings also include interviews with Workman by
Mike Wallace and by Dave Garroway of NBC’s Today Show following the publication of his
book The Case for the South.
