Biographical Note

Richard Louis “Dixie” Walker (1922-2003) was an international scholar, diplomat, and

author. He served as the United States Ambassador to the Republic of Korea from 1981-

1986. Walker gained his first experiences in Asia while serving in World War II, from

1943-1946. He served as a Mandarin Chinese translator under General Douglas

MacArthur in the Pacific Theater of Operations. During and after his military service,

Walker earned his B.A. from Drew University (1944) and M.A. and Ph.D. from Yale

University (1947 and 1950, respectively).

He taught at Yale until 1957, when he helped begin a new program in international

studies at the University of South Carolina, which he led until 1972. In 1961, Walked

founded the Institute of International Studies, which he headed until 1981. In 1996, the

institute was renamed in his honor as the Richard L. Walker Institute.

In 1981, Walker left the University of South Carolina when he was chosen by President

Ronald Reagan to serve as Ambassador to the Republic of Korea. Walker was

unanimously confirmed by the U.S. Senate and went on to serve as ambassador until

1986—the longest tenure of any American ambassador to South Korea. During his time

as ambassador, Walker was instrumental in freeing political prisoner Kim Dae-Jung, who

would later serve as the president of South Korea (1998-2003).

2

Upon leaving his ambassadorship, Walker returned to the University of South Carolina

and worked within the field of international studies. He retired in the mid-1990s as the

James F. Byrnes Professor Emeritus of International Studies and Ambassador-in-

Residence at USC. During his tenure, Walker served as a visiting scholar or lecturer in

Korea, Japan, Taiwan, and China—as well as throughout Europe and the United States.

Walker was academically active throughout his lifetime, publishing 17 books,

contributing to more than 70 other books, and writing numerous articles and reviews. His

first major work was China Under Communism: The First Five Years (1956), a study of

public life and culture under the communist regime of the People’s Republic of China.

His memoirs, recounting life in Korea, were published in 1998.

Walker was married to Celeno Kenly “Ceny” Walker for 45 years. A portion of the

collection contains materials from Ceny Walker’s personal files (see Series VIII). The

couple had three children, Anne, Geoffrey, and Bradley. Richard “Dixie” Walker died on

July 22, 2003.
