Background

Scope and content:

Screenplays and related material authored by Millard Lampell, an Emmy-winning writer (1966), novelist and songwriter. In 1950 during the McCarthy era he was blacklisted for refusing to tell the Senate Committee on Internal Security about his political affiliations. For several years he was forced to use a psedudonym. Lampell helped form the pre-revival classic group, the Almanac Singers, a precursor to the Weavers. He was the author of two novels.
