Biographical Materials, 1910-1973,
(bulk 1955-1961)
|
|
Biographical materials are divided into three subseries. Erich Wolfgang
Korngold's materials consist mostly of holograph notes. Notable items
include the itinerary for the Korngolds' 1949 trip to Europe, his
naturalization papers, and his program notes for Choral Psalm. Julius's biographical materials comprise his own
writings, namely drafts of his extensive memoirs, and his books about opera.
Luzi's materials are the most extensive. They consist of personal documents,
including her passport, naturalization papers, and records of her personal
and property expenses after her husband's death. Luzi wrote a biography of
Korngold for Große Österreicher, an
encyclopedic compilation of famous Austrians, and a biography of Frederic
Chopin, Lieber Meister Chopin, published in
1960. The majority of Luzi's biographical materials contain correspondence
with publishers concerning the book's publication, written primarily in
German. |

Luise "Luzi" Korngold, 1918-1979
|
|
Luzi's materials are the most extensive of the Biographical Materials
Series. They consist of personal documents, including her passport,
naturalization papers, and Austrian driver's license. Luzi wrote a
biography of Erich for Große Österreicher ,
an encyclopedic compilation of famous Austrians, and a biography of
Frederic Chopin, entitled Lieber Meister
Chopin , published in 1960, both of which are included in
this subseries. The bulk of Luzi's biographical materials are
correspondence concerning the book's publication written to and received
from her publishers and reproductions of clippings of publicity and
reviews of the book. These letters are primarily in German. There are
also reproductions of publicity clippings and reviews of the book. A
gifted cartoonist, Luzi created short, satirical works in this series,
including a fake driver's license for Helene Thimig and a short book
about Max Reinhardt and Korngold that are included in the collection.
The last items in Luzi's biographical materials are Ein Frauenschicksal im Kriege , a book
written by her cousin once removed, Maria Sonnenthal Scherer, about her
experiences as a nurse, and two books inscribed to her by writer Franz
Werfel. Werfel was another European exile who immigrated to the United
States after the Anschluss with his wife, Alma Mahler-Werfel and, along
with the Korngolds, became part of the Austrian artist community in Los
Angeles. |
