Abstract:
The papers of Leon Srabian Herald (1896-1976), an Armenian-American poet who wrote the first English-language text about the Armenian Genocide by an Armenian author.

His papers include numerous drafts of poems; manuscripts on a variety of topics including cosmology and sciences; correspondence between Herald and publishers, friends, other poets, and family; and dozens of memo-books with Herald's drafts. Some personal effects from Herald, including correspondence about his veteran status, reviews and newspaper clippings, and photographs of Herald, are also included. Individually cataloged titles with marginalia from Herald can be found in the UW Madison library catalog under the call number "Coll. E".
