Mrs. Faust, a Knoxville native who followed her love of the arts to New York and later opened her own drama studio, was remembered by family, friends and former students for her tireless support of the arts.
“I shall carry her close to my heart for the rest of my days,” said former student and Oscar-winning actress Patricia Neal, as quoted by the Faust family. “Emily was my very first drama teacher. She loved me, and I cherished that love. I am deeply, deeply saddened by her passing.”
Other students included opera singer Mary Costa, and actress and teacher Carol Mayo Jenkins.

Emily grew up in Knoxville, the daughter of Edgar C. Mahan and Emily Miller Mahan, first on Washington Avenue, then on Lyons View Pike. She began school in a one-room schoolhouse where Lonas Firehall now stands, graduated from Knoxville High School, attended Gulf Park College and The University of Tennessee, then followed her dream to the New York School of Theatre at Carnegie Hall, New York City, N.Y. In 1937 she opened her own drama studio, The Emily Mahan School of Drama; her students included actress Patricia Neal, opera singer Mary Costa and actress/teacher Carol Mayo Jenkins. Emily, with her lifelong love of theatre, was instrumental in the founding of the Carousel and Clarence Brown Theatres of UT and served as a founding and lifetime member of the Opening Night Club Board for the university’s theater program. The Emily Mahan Faust Fellowship, which continues to be given annually to promising young graduate level theater students at UT, was first established as a birthday present in her honor by her husband, Hugh.

She was an original member of the Board of Visitors at the College of Liberal Arts. Among her many community activities, Emily helped establish the Patricia Neal Rehabilitation Center and the Rooftop Therapy Garden, the Baptist Hospital Auxiliary as well as participating on numerous boards and volunteer activities. She loved her family, her church, UT, the theater and the family cabin at Elkmont. In short, Emily simply loved life. Among her many lifetime achievements, Emily was the first recipient (with husband Hugh) of UT’s Volunteer of the Year award, The First Lady of Knoxville, the AOII International Rose Award and AOII Community Service Award, The Junior League Award for Outstanding Sustainer, YWCA Tribute to Women in the Arts Division and most recently, the Patricia Neal Rehabilitation Center’s Community Caring Award.

Main St., Knoxville. The family received friends immediately following the memorial service in the church sanctuary.
