Born August 10, 1869, in Richmond, Virginia, he was the second of four children. He attended the John S. McGuire Academy but, due to financial matters, was unable to attend college. He set about educating himself and worked in a bank for several years, while writing and attempting to get a play produced on Broadway. In 1895, at the age of 26, he moved to New York City to pursue his writing career. Not having much money, he went looking for work and found a job in a fire insurance office as an accountant. He continued to shop his play, The Broken Rosary, around the city and at one point it looked like it was going to make it. He quit his fire insurance job to devote his time to the play.  Unfortunately, it fell through and he went back to work, this time for a bridge building company. Finally, Walter Lawrence, manager of the Madison Square Theater commissioned him to write The Prince Chap, 1904, which was met with rave reviews. A Broken Rosary was rewritten as a book, also in 1904.","His best known works are A Pair of Sixes and The Littlest Rebel. Some of his plays were made into silent films, and then later sound films. Probably his most famous work was The Littlest Rebel, in book form, play form and then in motion pictures, most notably, the Shirley Temple movie of that name. After his death in 1924, his brothers and sister continued to work with theaters, agents, and producers to market his plays and handle requests for movie and publication rights.","By the time of his death, July 28, 1924, he had written more than 40 plays, many short stories and poems, and several books.

He received his Bachelor's degree in Liberal Arts from University of Richmond in 1948 and went on to receive a degree in Divinity from Harvard in 1952 and a degree in Library Science from Columbia in 1955. In 1956, Gresham was an assistant librarian in the Boatwright Memorial Library. During his time at the library, Gresham founded a literature society entitled Great Books of Richmond. Gresham moved to Wilmington, Delaware, working in the field of public education from 1959-1985. Public education suited Gresham, as he loved to share what he learned from his wide variety of books, plays, travels, and lectures that he attended. Gresham was a voracious reader who felt that books were the best way to record history, culture, and traditions. His taste in books included literature, poetry, non-fiction, travel, and history. He also enjoyed books written by authors around the world, most notably Greek, Russian, French, and Spanish. Boatwright Memorial Library has a significant collection of his books that were donated by Gresham's family upon his passing. Among these books are first editions and signed copies, many of which are both. Included in these books are several written by the poets represented in the Gresham Correspondence Collection: Enid Starkie's Arthur Rimbaud, Andre Gide, and Baudelaire; John Gassner's The Theater in Our Times and Masters of the Drama; W.H. Auden's The Collected Poetry of W.H. Auden, The Shield of Achilles, Nones, and The Age of Anxiety; Marianne Moore's The Complete Poems of Marianne Moore; Muriel Rukeyser's Selected Poems; and W.H. Auden and Christopher Isherwood's Journey to a War. In addition to the many books donated, the family also donated Gresham's collection of incunabula leaves (see MS-11 Gresham Incunabula Leaves Collection).","Enid Starkie (1897-1970) was born in Ireland and studied in both Ireland and England. She was an author of biographies and taught modern languages at the University of Oxford, University of Exeter, and Hollins College (now Hollins University).","John Gassner (1903-1967) was born in Hungary and lived in New York. He attended Columbia University, receiving his Masters. He taught at Labor Temple School (1925-1927), Columbia University, Hunter College (1928-1945), and Bryn Mawr College (1941-1943). Gassner was a playwright and wrote for several magazines, including the New York Times Book Review.","Wystan Hugh Auden – better known as W.H. Auden – (1907-1973) was from England and emigrated to the United States during WWII (1939). He was a playwright and an author of poetry. Most of his poems were of a political and moral nature. During the Spanish Civil War, Auden spent time in Spain writing. Auden graduated from Oxford in 1928 and married Erika Mann in 1935 to protect her from the Nazi's. Mann stayed behind when Auden emigrated to the United States; the pair never divorced and remained friends. Auden wrote a few plays with Chester Kallman – his lifelong companion. Auden taught poetry at Oxford University from 1956-1961. In 1948, Auden won a Pulitzer Prize for The Age of Anxiety; the Gresham family donated a signed copy.","May Sarton (1912-1995) was a poet and author of novels. She is known for her interest in feminism and sexuality, which transfers to her writing. Sarton was born in Belgium, but in 1914, the family fled to England due to WWI. In 1918, the family emigrated to the United States where Sarton remained. The theater was Sarton's first love; after acting for a small New York theater, she ran her own theater company, but had to take on extra work to keep the theater's finances in the black. She began writing literary reviews specifically about theater, but dabbled in poetry as well. She briefly wrote documentary scripts for the United States Office of War Information. During the 1930s, she taught at Stuart School in Boston and from 1950-1953 she taught composition at Harvard University.","Barbara Guest (1920-2006) was an American poet and playwright. In addition, Guest also wrote art reviews for magazines, such as Art News and Art in America. Guest graduated from the University of California, at Berkeley and lived in New York. Among the awards Guest won during her lifetime, include the Lawrence Lipton Award for Literature (1990) and the Robert Frost Medal for Distinguished Lifetime Achievement from Poetry Society of America (1999).","Marianne Moore (1887-1972) was an American poet known for her diverse writings. Moore grew up in the Midwest and graduated from Bryn Mawr in 1909. She lived in New York with her mother throughout her life. The literary community viewed her as an \"auntie figure\" and a mentor. During her lifetime, Moore won many awards: Levinson Prize from Poetry Magazine (1932), Pulitzer Prize for Collected Poems (1951), and gold medals from Poetry Society of America (1960 \u0026 1967).","Muriel Rukeyser (1913-1980) was an American poet and political activist. She attended school at Vassar College from 1930-1932, but did not graduate. Upon her departure from Vassar, Rukeyser started the journal Student Review with three other women. In 1933, Rukeyser travelled to Alabama to cover the Scottsboro, Alabama, trial of nine African-American boys who were accused of raping two white females, but Rukeyser was detained during the trial. In 1936, she went to Spain to cover an athletic competition; however, by the time she arrived, the Spanish Civil War had begun and Rukeyser began working for the medical bureau in Spain. Rukeyser was frequently involved with political activism and was an advocate against inhumanity. She taught at Sarah Lawrence College in 1946 and 1956-1967. She spoke several languages, including French, Spanish, Swedish, and Italian and enjoyed translating poems in these languages. Among her many awards are the Oscar Blumethal Prize in poetry (1940), Harriet Monroe Poetry Award (1941), and the Levinson Prize in poetry (1947). \nPaul Duke (1926-2005) graduated from University of Richmond in 1947. He was a classmate of William Dew Gresham's. Duke wrote a sports column during his time at the university. Duke is best known for his time on the television program Washington Week in Review where he worked for twenty years. During his time on the show, Duke was inducted into the Virginia Communications Hall of Fame (1992).","Paul Duke (1926-2005) graduated from University of Richmond in 1947.

He graduated from University of Chicago. He won a Pulitzer Prize for his book of poems entitled Flowering Stone (1930s).","Gilbert Murray (1866-1957) was an English classicist and translator of Greek literature. He graduated from St. John's College, Oxford and later taught at New College, Oxford where he was the Regius Professor of Greek (1908-1936). Upon his death, his ashes were placed at Westminster Abbey.","Due to deterioration of the newspaper clipping in Series I, File 2, the original clipping was discarded and has been replaced by a photocopied version.","Processed by Kelly Bryan.","This collection contains correspondence between William Gresham and several poets. The majority of the correspondences are replies to Gresham's invitations to speak for the Poetry Society of Virginia. Some of the correspondence Gresham saved was not written by him or to him. The collection also houses several programs, pamphlets, and newspaper articles that support Gresham's dedication and love of literature and culture.","Series I, Gresham Correspondence, includes correspondence between William Gresham and several poets. The letters are regarding Gresham's invitations for various poets to speak for the Poetry Society of Virginia in Williamsburg, Virginia. May Sarton spoke for the organization on May 14, 1960. Most of her letters are regarding her travel arrangements.","Series II, Pamphlets, Writings, and Newspaper Clippings, contains several personal keepsakes, most notably, a poem written by Gresham, two booklets – one autographed by Pearl S. Buck and the other by Art Buchwald – and a Christmas poem written by May Sarton.","Series III, Other Correspondence, comprises correspondence that did not include Gresham. One letter in particular was a thank you note from the poet George Dillon to Gresham's wife Nancy. The last item in the series is a payment note for a cab in Richmond; however, there does not appear to be any connection to Gresham himself and was written over twenty years before Gresham's birth.","Copyright restrictions may apply.

He received his Bachelor's degree in Liberal Arts from University of Richmond in 1948 and went on to receive a degree in Divinity from Harvard in 1952 and a degree in Library Science from Columbia in 1955. In 1956, Gresham was an assistant librarian in the Boatwright Memorial Library. During his time at the library, Gresham founded a literature society entitled Great Books of Richmond. Gresham moved to Wilmington, Delaware, working in the field of public education from 1959-1985. Public education suited Gresham, as he loved to share what he learned from his wide variety of books, plays, travels, and lectures that he attended. Gresham was a voracious reader who felt that books were the best way to record history, culture, and traditions. His taste in books included literature, poetry, non-fiction, travel, and history. He also enjoyed books written by authors around the world, most notably Greek, Russian, French, and Spanish. Boatwright Memorial Library has a significant collection of his books that were donated by Gresham's family upon his passing. Among these books are first editions and signed copies, many of which are both.

Public education suited Gresham, as he loved to share what he learned from his wide variety of books, plays, travels, and lectures that he attended. Gresham was a voracious reader who felt that books were the best way to record history, culture, and traditions. His taste in books included literature, poetry, non-fiction, travel, and history. He also enjoyed books written by authors around the world, most notably Greek, Russian, French, and Spanish. Boatwright Memorial Library has a significant collection of his books that were donated by Gresham's family upon his passing. Among these books are first editions and signed copies, many of which are both. Included in these books are several written by the poets represented in the Gresham Correspondence Collection: Enid Starkie's Arthur Rimbaud, Andre Gide, and Baudelaire; John Gassner's The Theater in Our Times and Masters of the Drama; W.H. Auden's The Collected Poetry of W.H. Auden, The Shield of Achilles, Nones, and The Age of Anxiety; Marianne Moore's The Complete Poems of Marianne Moore; Muriel Rukeyser's Selected Poems; and W.H. Auden and Christopher Isherwood's Journey to a War. In addition to the many books donated, the family also donated Gresham's collection of incunabula leaves (see MS-11 Gresham Incunabula Leaves Collection).","Enid Starkie (1897-1970) was born in Ireland and studied in both Ireland and England.

In 1948, Auden won a Pulitzer Prize for The Age of Anxiety; the Gresham family donated a signed copy.","May Sarton (1912-1995) was a poet and author of novels.

In 1918, the family emigrated to the United States where Sarton remained. The theater was Sarton's first love; after acting for a small New York theater, she ran her own theater company, but had to take on extra work to keep the theater's finances in the black. She began writing literary reviews specifically about theater, but dabbled in poetry as well. She briefly wrote documentary scripts for the United States Office of War Information.

Paris and Raphael D. Paris. Throughout her life she worked in education in various forms from elementary to collegiate level. She earned a B.A. (1915) and M.A. in Education from Wellesley College. She taught in New England, Virginia, and Illinois. Hazel is most famously known from authoring Bunny Polka Dot and The Little Red Wagon. She was also an assistant professor of English at Westhampton College in the 1920s.","Her interest in writing first began when her son was a young boy and she discovered she was having a hard time locating interesting educational material for him to read. At the time she was friends with an established author who agreed she had a talent for writing and encouraged her to pursue it. When she first started out she struggled getting her stories published. One of her rejections was from McLoughlin Bros. Inc. in 1940, in which they stated they already had too many animal stories for this year and maybe she should submit her material in the following year. In 1942 she was rejected by Farm Journal and Farmer's Wife because her material was too similar to what they were already publishing. This process would repeat itself all the way into 1949 when she was rejected by Grosset and Dunlap. During this time, she was careful to take notes and learn from her mistakes. She did publish a few stories during this time to The American Home for example, however she was still learning the times that were best to submit. Many times she was simply rejected because she submitted her material at the wrong time of year for the publications. Eventually, she came to understand the publication process and was publishing multiple stories a year. Early on in the process she did get an article published in Writer's Monthly in 1941 entitled, \"What the Editor Wants.\" This article discussed her process when planning to submit an article for publication and what an editor expects to see.","Throughout her life, she wrote numerous articles, informal essays, short stories, articles on family life, and articles for both adults and children. When developing a story, Hazel didn't like to waste paper, so she would use scrap material from her education position to plan out the story before typing. She was a large advocate for immersing children in day to day activities. In Christian Home in 1940 she discussed bringing children into the kitchen and allowing them to participate in meal preparation. She stressed the importance of patience in the parent and allowing the child to learn and use their creativity to solve the problem in front of them. In her later articles she focused on how parents can better understand their teenage children.","After working in higher education, she realized she missed working with young children and took a job in elementary education in District 109 in Deerfield, Illinois. She retired in 1962 but kept working on stories for different organizations well into 1974, such as a biography for Joseph Laurent. She passed away in Feb. 1975 in Highland Park, Illinois.","These materials are from the estate of Debbie Marchand, granddaughter of Hazel Paris Cederborg. They were acquired at auction by Wellesley College, and later this portion was transferred to the University of Richmond in 2016. Materials about Wellesley College were retained by their archives.","Collection contains documents, published short stories, photographs, notecards, magnifying glass, letter opener, French apron, scrapbooks.","Processed by Maelyn Cable.","Wellesley College featured material from their collection of Hazel Paris Cederborg materials in their 2016 spring newsletter.","The collection is divided into 2 series, and 7 subseries.","Series I, Short Stories, contains stories written by Hazel Paris Cederborg for young children focusing around life lessons.","Subseries IA, Unpublished Drafts and Notes, includes stories that were in the planning process or ideas that had yet to be put in some order. These particular stories have topics focusing around family life and many use animals to teach life lessons. A large part of this section contains materials on the Prince of Whales and the planning materials for a story.","Subseries IB, Published Short Stories, contains stories that were published into newspapers, story collections, or books. The first part of this section is large children's storybooks where Hazel Paris Cederborg has one to seven short stories published in each one. In the front of the folders are copies of the stories specifically published by Cederborg. Following the storybooks are published articles to smaller collections or newspapers. The main items in this section are The Little Red Wagon and Bunny Polka Dot.","Subseries IC, Historical and Factual Short Stories, includes short stories based with historically accurate information and focused around living or deceased individuals. These stories were requested by another party to be written by Hazel Paris Cederborg and mainly focus around Somerville, Massachusetts where Cederborg lived for a short time growing up.","Series II, Personal Papers and Family Information, includes information in the collection that was collected by Hazel or other family members pertaining to research or family information including Hazel's retirement.","Subseries IIA, Research, includes items that contain research ideas for unnamed stories.","Subseries IIB, Personal Papers and Items, includes items such as files pertaining to the Westhampton Anniversary Party in 1964, articles containing information about Emil W. Cederborg and Hazel Paris Cederborg, and items held in the procession of the Cederborgs. Towards the end of this section are items that Hazel used for aids in the classroom and items from her desk.","Subseries IIC, Family Information and Photographs, contains items relating to family history. This section is largely comprised of family photographs.","Subseries IID, Scrapbooks, includes scrapbooks created by Hazel Paris Cederborg that contain clippings of articles and stories she published to various sources.

Paris and Raphael D. Paris. Throughout her life she worked in education in various forms from elementary to collegiate level. She earned a B.A. (1915) and M.A. in Education from Wellesley College. She taught in New England, Virginia, and Illinois. Hazel is most famously known from authoring Bunny Polka Dot and The Little Red Wagon. She was also an assistant professor of English at Westhampton College in the 1920s.","Her interest in writing first began when her son was a young boy and she discovered she was having a hard time locating interesting educational material for him to read. At the time she was friends with an established author who agreed she had a talent for writing and encouraged her to pursue it. When she first started out she struggled getting her stories published. One of her rejections was from McLoughlin Bros. Inc. in 1940, in which they stated they already had too many animal stories for this year and maybe she should submit her material in the following year. In 1942 she was rejected by Farm Journal and Farmer's Wife because her material was too similar to what they were already publishing. This process would repeat itself all the way into 1949 when she was rejected by Grosset and Dunlap. During this time, she was careful to take notes and learn from her mistakes. She did publish a few stories during this time to The American Home for example, however she was still learning the times that were best to submit. Many times she was simply rejected because she submitted her material at the wrong time of year for the publications. Eventually, she came to understand the publication process and was publishing multiple stories a year. Early on in the process she did get an article published in Writer's Monthly in 1941 entitled, \"What the Editor Wants.\" This article discussed her process when planning to submit an article for publication and what an editor expects to see.","Throughout her life, she wrote numerous articles, informal essays, short stories, articles on family life, and articles for both adults and children. When developing a story, Hazel didn't like to waste paper, so she would use scrap material from her education position to plan out the story before typing. She was a large advocate for immersing children in day to day activities. In Christian Home in 1940 she discussed bringing children into the kitchen and allowing them to participate in meal preparation. She stressed the importance of patience in the parent and allowing the child to learn and use their creativity to solve the problem in front of them. In her later articles she focused on how parents can better understand their teenage children.","After working in higher education, she realized she missed working with young children and took a job in elementary education in District 109 in Deerfield, Illinois. She retired in 1962 but kept working on stories for different organizations well into 1974, such as a biography for Joseph Laurent. She passed away in Feb. 1975 in Highland Park, Illinois.","These materials are from the estate of Debbie Marchand, granddaughter of Hazel Paris Cederborg.

Roberts, Professor of English, was the second Dean of Westhampton College, from 1947 to 1965. Born in Rockport, Indiana on March 15, 1904, she was the daughter of the Hon. Judge Ralph Elmer and Alice Enfield (nee Saunders) Roberts. She was educated at Evansville College where she earned her Bachelor of Arts degree in 1924. She received her Master's and Ph.D. degrees from Radcliffe College in 1928 and 1943 respectively. From 1928 to 1936, she taught in Central and Bosse High Schools in Evansville, and also at Evansville College. She did graduate work at Indiana University and Cambridge University during the years 1925-1929. In 1937, Dr. Roberts became Dean of Women and Assistant Professor of English at McMaster University in Hamilton, Ontario, Canada, and served in that capacity until 1946. She lectured in English at Toronto University from 1946 to 1947, when she came to Westhampton College as Dean and Professor of English. In 1965, she left the position as Dean and continued as a Professor of English until her retirement in 1975.","Dr. Roberts' most notable quality as a teacher was always her strong demand for excellence from her students, something she certainly mirrored in her tenacity in her research and writing. Her personal grace and charm were also mentioned many times, as was her ability to put faculty and students at ease in social settings.","Dr. Roberts was a leading Thomas Hardy scholar and actually lived for a year in 1935 at Max Gate, Dorset, the Hardy estate, with Hardy's widow, Florence. Her doctoral dissertation was titled Thomas Hardy and the Theater. She continued with this theme in two of her scholarly publications, Tess in the Theater, 1950, and Hardy's Poetic Drama and the Theater, 1965. A third book, Florence Hardy and the Max Gate Circle, was eventually published in the Thomas Hardy Yearbook, no. 9 (1980).","During the Vietnam War, Dr. Roberts was appointed by the Secretary of Defense, Robert McNamara, to the Defense Advisory Committee on Women in the Services, 1965-68. In addition to being a Virginia Cultural Laureate, Dr. Roberts was also associate editor of the Journal of the Deans of Women, 1942-50; member of Phi Beta Kappa, American Association of University Professors, Modern Language Association, the Canadian Author's Association, and the Virginia Writer's Association. She was also president of the Women's Club of Richmond, 1970-1971. Health issues forced her to return to Indiana, where, after a long illness, she died on March 25, 1988.","Processed by Elizabeth Dickie, Special Collections Cataloging and Preservation Associate.","The rare book collection at Boatwright Library has volumes that were gifted to Dr. Roberts and items that were gifts of Dr. Roberts. Those items are noted in the library catalog records and may be located by searching her name. Dr. Roberts also did an oral history interview on 14 April 1976 that is available as part of the Westhampton College Oral Histories in audio and transcription.","This collection encompasses Dr. Roberts' research and writing about Thomas Hardy. It includes her research for her books and articles, collected information about Hardy and Wessex, England, as well as her manuscripts, journal articles and dissertation. What is interesting about this collection is the extent to which Dr. Roberts pursued her subject, leaving no stone unturned, and the relationships that grew during her research and lasted long after. Most notable was her long-term relationship with Florence Hardy.","Series I, The Dynasts, contains materials relating to Hardy's drama in verse, The Dynasts. This material is of note since this seems to have been a little studied piece.  This series includes a leather-bound copy of The Dynasts arranged by Harley Granville-Barker. (Box 1)","Series II, Hardy's Dramatic Poetry and the Theater, focuses on the work Hardy's Poetic Drama and Theater. Materials include research and manuscripts in various states of editing, and notes of the various productions of Hardy's plays. (Box 2)","Series III, Tess and the Theater, includes materials on Tess and the Theater, originally part of Roberts' dissertation. Hardy's book, Tess of the D'Urbervilles, was first dramatized by Hardy.  Several versions of his play were produced and documented here. Ronald Gow and Lorimer Stoddard attempted their own versions, copies of which are in the collection, along with information and playbills about their productions. (Boxes 3, 4, and 5)","Series IV, Hardy and the Theater, focuses on Dr. Roberts's dissertation, Hardy and the Theater. This series contains correspondence from actors and historians about the Hardy Players, permission requests, research notes, drafts of the dissertation, and a bound copy of Hardy and the Theater. (Boxes 6, 7, and 8)","Series V, Max Gate Circle, contains her work on the Max Gate Circle. Hardy's home, Max Gate, drew many famous and even infamous people.  With Hardy's advancing age and infirmity, it was often Florence, his second wife, who held things together. This series includes letters and vignettes of Florence's conversations with Dr. Roberts, along with memories, copies of letters and various drafts of the finished piece. (Boxes 9, 10, 11, 12, and 13)","Series VI, General Research, is a collection of Dr. Roberts's general research and information on Thomas Hardy, Florence Hardy, Dorset, and those certain of Hardy's contemporaries. (Boxes 14, 15, and 16)","Series VII, Manuscripts and Journals, includes manuscripts of Dr. Roberts which are not in her books, and journals in which her articles appear or are related to her Hardy scholarship. (Boxes 17 and 18)","Series VIII, Personal, contains items that do not really fit with any of the other series and have been classed as Personal. There are papers from her visit to the House of Commons, letters from friends and former professors. (Box 18)","Copyright restrictions may apply. Unpublished manuscripts are protected by copyright.
