From the Nashville Tennessean, 9/26/01
Journalist Clayton Braddock dies at 73

Clayton Braddock, 73, formerly a Tennessee-based education reporter in the 1960s and 1970s, died Thursday in a health-care facility near his home in Bluffton, S.C.

Over the course of a half-century career in journalism, public relations and teaching, Mr. Braddock left a trail of admiring family, friends and professional associates in his wake, said Nashville author John Egerton, a longtime friend of Mr. Braddock.

''His specialty as a reporter was really in education,'' Egerton said.

A native of Polk County, Fla., he graduated from the University of the South in Sewanee, Tenn., and received a doctoral degree from Ohio State University.

He began his career as a military correspondent for the Stars & Stripes newspaper in Europe in the waning days of World War II.

In the 1950s, Mr. Braddock worked for the Huntsville (Ala.) Times and was a reporter and bureau chief at the Miami Herald. In the early 1960s, he met and married Jowain Brower, an artist and singer.

Mr. Braddock went on to write for the Memphis Commercial-Appeal, the Southern Education Reporting Service in Nashville, a news service that tracked schools and colleges in the South in the wake of the U.S. Supreme Court's desegregation decision, the state Department of Education in Nashville, and the public relations departments of the University of Tennessee Medical Center in Memphis and Ohio State University in Columbus.

Throughout most of the 1980s, Mr. Braddock and his wife lived in southwest Virginia, where he served on the faculty of Radford University's department of media studies. He retired from Radford in the early 1990s and later moved to South Carolina.

He was a poet, musician, songwriter, woodcarver and rock collector.

Survivors, in addition to his wife, include a son, Stephen Noel Braddock, Check, Va., and other relatives, including a first cousin, noted Nashville songwriter Bobby Braddock.

A memorial celebration of Mr. Braddock's life will be held at a later date in southwest Virginia.
