BOX 39-42 Correspondence, 1922-1987
This series includes personal and professional correspondence, both typescript and autograph, between Suesse and others. A substantial amount of letters to her mother, Nina Quarrier, document her personal and professional life in New York City as well as her trip abroad to study with Nadia Boulanger. A small number of letters to and from her first husband Courtney Burr, second husband Charles Edwin Delinks, step-father Robert Chase Stevens, uncle Arthur Quarrier, and grandmother Sallie L. Hogan further document her family life.
The series also includes ample correspondence from her manager, Miriam Stern, that documents the business aspect of Suesse's music career. Other letters provide a snapshot of her vast network of prominent figures in the music, literary, and arts scenes, including Tallulah Bankhead, George Bartieneff, Nadia Boulanger, Vera Brodsky, Sammy Cahn, Samuel Chotzinoff, Virginia Faulkner, Michael Feinstein, Leonard Feist, Frederick Fennell, Arthur Fiedler, William Gaxton, Ira Gershwin, Oscar Hammerstein, Hildegard, Coral Potter, Ethel Bartlett Robertson, Jack Robbins, Carlos Salzedo, Oscar Serlin, Hans Spialek, Kay Swift, and Emanuel Vardi.
