BOX 4 Correspondence, 1907-1951
The correspondence between Hernried and translator Theodora Lau largely comprises this series. Although the material centers around translations of Hernried's compositions from German to English, they also discussed their lives over the course of this five-year exchange. Hernried confided his struggles and successes with work, emigration, health, and family, including his children and nephew, actor Paul Hernried. Letters from other correspondents cover such topics as music and article publishing, guest lecturing, news from friends and colleagues, employment opportunities, and Hernried's offers to serve the United States during World War II. There are two letters from acquaintances, Gerhard Parrhysius and Otto Wartisch, whom Hernried describes as belonging to the Nazi party.
