Biographical Information

Avocational photographer James P. Roberts is a life-time Loudoun County, Virginia resident. Born and raised in segregated Leesburg, he graduated from Douglass High School. He served in the U.S. Navy for five years before returning to Loudoun County to raise his family.

Roberts organized the first African American Boy Scout troop in Middleburg, which later became the first integrated troop. He was also the first African American awarded Middleburg's Fireman of the Year award and co-founded the Windy Hill Foundation. Roberts served on the Middleburg Town Council in 1980 and on the Thomas Balch Library Advisory Commission since 2001.

In addition to his volunteer activities, Roberts is actively involved in preserving Loudoun County history. He regularly leads a walking tour exploring local people, places and points of interest both in and around Leesburg. He shares his first-hand knowledge of how Leesburg has grown and evolved through the years architecturally, economically, and racially. In recognition of his contributions, Roberts was a Loudoun History Award recipient in 2008.
