Presenting: Maynard K. Baird
MAYNARD K. BAIRD, first saw the light of day in Memphis, Term., forty-eight years ago. He is regional director for the Labor League for Human Rights, A. F. of L.'s public relations program, and is a charter member of I. A. Projectionists' Local No. 405, Knoxville, Tenn. He has held practically every office in the local, and was business agent until he started working with the Labor League.
For seven consecutive years Baird held the office of president of the Knoxville Central Labor Union, retiring from that post when he accepted his present position with the Labor League. He has held a volunteer organizer's certificate from the A. F. of L. for the past twenty years.
Maynard Baird's union activities are
further augmented by his membership for the past 25 years in the Musician's Union, Local No. 546, A. F. of L. He spent a number of years traveling about the country with his own band, which was booked by the Music Corporation of America. He has made eight recordings for the Vocallion Company of Chicago, two of which were outstanding hits — "Postage Stamp" and "Just For You."
Baird has been active in the Tennessee State labor movement for some twenty years. In 1936 he was chairman of the Labor Day Committee which brought President William Green to Knoxville to deliver the Labor Day address.
For the past three years he has been very active in promoting CLU and A. F. of L. members' participation in war activities and community affairs, and in stimulating interest in forming common grounds between labor and the community.
While his headquarters are in Knoxville, his territory covers Tennessee, Alabama and Mississippi. Baird covers his territory by car, which is equipped with a complete 16-mm sound motion picture outfit, a speed Graphic camera, piano accordion and other musical instruments as well as 16-mm war newsreels, from the bombing of Pearl Harbor to the present time. All this equipment is used to promote good will between labor and the community.
Maynard Baird is married and has five children. One of them, Maynard, Jr., served with the Marines at Okinawa. He also is a projectionist, a member of Local No. 405, and of Musicians' Local No. 546, indicating that he is moving along in his pappy's footsteps.
