- Courte biographie
- Along with his father, Glenn Kieffer Vaughan played an integral part in the growth of the James D. Vaughan Music Publishing Company and in the formation of WOAN, the first gospel radio station in the state of Tennessee.
As manager and lead singer of the Vaughan Quartet in the early 1920s, he was among the first to broadcast regularly on radio and to record on the Vaughan Record label. An accomplished performer, he taught voice at the Vaughan School of Music, authored gospel songs, and organized the Tennessee State Singing Convention in 1934.
After his father's death in 1941, Kieffer assumed control of the Vaughan Music Publishing Company and managed the firm for more than two decades. He was elected President of the National Singing Convention in 1949. Kieffer Vaughan was also a devoted public servant, holding the office of Mayor of Lawrenceburg, Tennessee, from 1947 to 1951.
