Lowther Legacy Library

     The Lowther Legacy Library was created so that our children, grandchildren, and those who come after can know and be inspired by those who came before them. My father, George. F. Lowther, passed when he was 62. He looked at my newborn child, Kelly, and simply said, “One comes in, and one goes out!” How much she knows about her grandfather is very little. However, she will learn much more through the Lowther Legacy Library, as will her children and those who come after. That is the purpose. We also hope you will find our writings entertaining and informative. Dad was a professional writer. 

     My brother Kevin, was a journalist, Peace Corps volunteer, and a director with Africare. In his own time, he wrote two books, “Keeping Kennedy’s Promise” and “The African American Odyssey of John Kizell,” as well as many articles for Philatelic magazines—a love of stamps and history he has had his entire life. Today, 40-plus magazine articles he has written on the postal history of WWI are being published in book form by the Military Postal History Society – quite an honor. 

     For me,  Sean Lowther, I went the executive route in life. As my father was a writer, producer, director, and actor with a radio, television, and stage career, I too found myself in similar corporate positions as VP of Corporate Development and Marketing for an international cosmetic company to VP of Information Security at the second largest Bank in America designing and implementing the enterprise-wide Information Security Awareness Program, to writing and producing in 2001 the video, “It’s Not If, But When,” which I presented at the US Department of the Treasury on the risks associated with the internet; Chairman of the Board for the Lupus Foundation of America’s North Carolina Chapter, and I have written several books. For the last fifteen years, I have been President and Founder of Stealth Awareness, Inc., a company that provides services to the legal community and, of course, writing.

     But Dad was the master, writing and directing “The Adventures of Superman” on the radio in the early 40s to writing the first play ever broadcast on television: “The Cathedral.” His credits are too long to list here but can be read in “How to Write a Book in Half-Hours.” His books are also highlighted on our website. Though all of Dad’s original works are out of print, they can still be found online for anywhere from $25.00 to $3,000 per copy. I am in the process of having them republished so that young and old can enjoy them once again. His unpublished book, Sam Starr—Harpooner, was published fifty years after his death. If he knew then what we know now, he should have bought 1000 copies of “The Adventures of Superman” and signed them all. Alas, he did not nor keep his Superman original scripts.

     We hope that future generations of our family will take up the reins to The Lowther Legacy Library and note their published works for their loved ones and those to come. If you want to learn how to create your Legacy Library, the book will come out shortly. It’s almost FREE to do and only requires some effort on your part to leave behind what you have done in your life to those who will ultimately ask: “Who was . . . ?”
