BOX 49-132 Writings, 1948-2006
The Writings series forms the largest portion of the collection and documents Buchwald’s work as a columnist, novelist, autobiographer, and playwright and documents his many articles, books, columns, memoirs, plays, and screenplays. A nearly complete chronological run of Buchwald’s columns is contained in this series and dates between 1949 and 2006. The columns take the form of newspaper clippings and drafts bearing Buchwald’s edits. Russian translations of Buchwald’s columns as they appeared in Soviet periodicals, especially Prâvda, are also included. These translations date primarily between 1958 and 1969 and were sent to Buchwald by a variety of sources, among them, Radio Free Europe, the United States Information Agency, and a reader named Misha Allen. Material related to Buchwald’s numerous books, most of which are anthologies of his columns and articles, are also contained in this series and are largely documented by correspondence with publishers, friends, and readers, book reviews, and other publishing work product. Buchwald’s memoirs, Leaving Home, I’ll Always Have Paris, and Too Soon to Say Goodbye, are heavily documented in the Writings series and include digital and analog manuscript drafts, letters from readers, and background research. Unpublished works include a collection of letters titled “Read Between the Lines” and an autobiography titled “Revenge is Sweet.” Many of Buchwald’s play scripts and screenplays are also represented in this series, with Sheep on the Runway, which was performed on Broadway from 1969 to 1970, and his first play, No Love Atoll, performed at the University of Southern California Varsity Show in 1948, among the most well documented. Researchers should note additional column drafts and book manuscripts can be found in the Digital File series. Some of Buchwald's earliest writings, including articles written while in the United States Marine Corps and as coursework while at the University of Southern California are found in the Personal File.
Material types include articles, book manuscripts, book reviews, columns, correspondence, digital files, lists, newspaper clippings, photographs, and printed matter.
Arranged alphabetically by type of publication and alphabetically by title or topic or chronologically therein. File structure of the digital content included in this series was maintained as received.
