Lucie King Harris, born in Sonoma in 1883, was an arts patron, a philanthropist, and an ardent horsewoman. She helped found the San Francisco Opera Association in 1922 and was a governor of the San Francisco Symphony Association, as well as a founder of the San Francisco Choral Society. After her death in 1974, her son, Lawrence W. Harris, Jr., and his wife, Jane, chose to honor her through a book fund for music materials. The Lucie King Harris Books for Music Fund was the first endowed fund in Music at Stanford University.

This collection of piano/vocal and solo piano music belonging to Lucie King Harris is held in the Music Library Locked Stacks.
