Toni Goodyear of Durham, N.C., received her Ph.D. in psychology from the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill in 1992. She also attended UNC as an undergraduate, graduating with a bachelor's degree in 1984.

Field recordings, 1984, made by University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill student, Toni Goodyear, that relate to Goodyear's folklore class term paper, "The Lumbee Preacher and His Song." The audio recordings consist of an interview with Rev. Grady Cummings and a "performance of lining out hymns in a Lumbee church" led by Cummings at the Zion Hill Baptist Church in Robeson County, N.C. Lining out is a type of hymn singing in which a leader provides each line to be sung often by chanting. Toni Goodyear, then an undergraduate student at UNC, conducted the interview and recorded the performance for a Folklore 147 class taught by Daniel W. Patterson. The recordings found in the collection are 1/4" open reel recordings dubbed from Goodyear's original audiocassettes. A copy of Goodyear's term paper, "The Lumbee Preacher and His Song," resides in the Daniel W. Patterson and Beverly Bush Patterson Papers (#20026).
