Historians have written that Muhlenberg County is where the "roots" of thumb picking style of guitar playing is from. The most notable celebrity that was born, raised, and learned to play guitar in that area was the late Merle Travis - and was, of course, the first NTPHF inductee.

An FP or IM trained provider is needed to provide clinic care 8-5 M-F each day. A locums will be expected to see 22-27 pat per day typically. Mosty younger families with kids make up the patient mix. There are other providers on site who can see the kids if you are an IM.

The National Thumb Pickers Hall of Fame was organized and established in Muhlenberg County, Kentucky in November of 1997. Organizers were thumb picker Eddie Pennington of Princeton, Ky, Judge/Executive Rodney Kirtley of Greenvilee, Ky, and historian Bobby Anderson of Beechmont, Ky.

The purpose for the NTPHF is to honor and preserve the memory of those who practice, support and promote the art of thumb picking, and to preserve and promote its heritage. It does this by by holding and elaborate induction service each year to honor various categories of living and deceased thumb pickers and supporters. And, by financing and constructing a stage in Paradise Park (Greenville, Ky) and by purchasing many guitars to be place in schools in Muhlenberg County to encourage youth in their endeavors to learn to play the instrument.
