The Thomas R. DuBuque Research Fellowship was created by the THS Board of Directors in 2012 to honor the memory of past THS president, Conclave Theatre Tour planner, and dedicated volunteer Thomas “Tom” R. DuBuque. Tom had a lifelong interest in theatres and was a member of THS from 1979 until his death in 2011.

Established to support scholars conducting research in the Society’s archives and collections and encourage its use, the Fellowship awards certificates and monetary support to winning proposals.

For more information or questions, contact Kathy McLeister, Archive Director.
