Historic Preservation and Writing

I established Longleaf in 1990 to provide preservation services to owners, advocates and developers of historic properties and to the public sector. Longleaf Historic Resources brings fifty years of experience in the documentation, evaluation, and accreditation of historic buildings and landscapes in North Carolina, South Carolina, Virginia, Rhode Island, and Mississippi.

 

Longleaf Art Studio

My paintings combine my passion for landscapes, color theory, and architecture. On my studio pages you’ll find Carolina-inspired artwork for sale and upcoming events. Please get in touch if you have questions about any of my pieces.

The Book of Ruth: Taming Ghosts, Saving History

Latest Book

The Book of Ruth, Taming Ghosts, Saving History is an engaging recollection and reflection on the life of a girl born into a traditional Southern family, with traditional Southern complications. She then sought and found her own non-traditional path to and through adulthood. It is fortunate for the state of North Carolina that Ruth Little braided together her interests and those of her native state.
