B. L. Shaw, known as Buddy Shaw (born September 6, 1933), is a Republican former member of the Louisiana State Senate for Caddo and Bossier parishes in the northwestern corner of Louisiana. He defeated fellow Republican Billy Montgomery in the November 17, 2007, general election to procure the District 37 seat vacated by the term-limited Senator Max T. Malone of Shreveport. Shaw received 7,157 votes (57 percent) to Montgomery's 5,317 (43 percent)〔(Louisiana Secretary of State-Multi-Parish Elections Inquiry )〕 ==Background== Shaw received his bachelor's and master's degrees from Northwestern State University in Natchitoches in 1955 and 1960, respectively. He subsequently received the Ed.D. degree from Louisiana State University in Baton Rouge. He is a veteran of the United States Army. Before his legislative service, Shaw was a classroom teacher and principal of C.E. Byrd High School in Shreveport. Thereafter, he was the supervisor of Caddo Parish public schools. After he left the school system, he was an elected member of the Caddo Parish School Board. In 2000, along with songwriter Tillman Franks and Caddo Parish Sheriff Don Hathaway, who graduated from Byrd in 1940 and 1946, respectively, Shaw as a former principal was inducted into the Byrd High School Hall of Fame.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Hall of Fame Inductees: 2000 )〕 Shaw is a member of the East Shreveport Rotary International. He is Baptist. He and his wife, Mary Ann Shaw, Ph.D., reside in Shreveport. Shaw established a scholarship endowment at NSU to honor his daughter, Stephanie Shaw, and his stepson, Edward Neff Minor, III (November 21, 1963 - March 15, 1995), who both attended NSU. He is also a former president of the NSU Alumni Association. NSU President Randall Webb attributed the scholarship to the "generosity of Dr. Buddy Shaw and his family. What Buddy has done in providing this scholarship to honor Stephanie is to put Northwestern in a better position to be competitive. . . . to demonstrate progress." 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「B.
