Scope and Content Note

The 1981 Additions to the Dore Schary Papers primarily pertain to the last six years of his life (1974-1980), although there are scattered papers from earlier periods. While there is considerable overlap between the 1977 and 1981 additions, the 1981 Additions are characterized by Schary's reflection and research during the process of writing his autobiography Heyday and by documentation on two plays he brought to the stage in the mid-1970s, Herzl and F.D.R.

As with previous installments of the Schary papers, the 1981 Additions include correspondence, scripts, memoranda, publications, scrapbooks, speeches, and research notes which document Schary's personal and family life, his association with the Anti-Defamation League, and his work as a film and theater producer.

The BIOGRAPHICAL AND PERSONAL MATERIAL contains some family correspondence from the last several years of Schary's life, but this section is primarily a retrospective file pertaining to Schary's experiences in earlier years. Included are a commemorative book on his 50th birthday in 1955, lists of memberships and affiliations, and awards. Also listed here are a group of home movies featuring not only Schary's family but also personalities such as Marc Connelly, Beatrice Kaufman, Moss Hart, Constance Bennett, Groucho Marx, Robert Taylor, Barbara Stanwyck, and Sheila Graham, and several recorded interviews of Schary.

The GENERAL FILES, 1954-1980, continues the alphabetical correspondence/subject file in previous installments. The majority of the material here dates after 1974. Aside from an occasional report or clipping, it consist chiefly of correspondence with friends, professional colleagues, Jewish activists, and aspiring writers. There is also correspondence between Schary and his literary agent, Julian Bach, regarding publication of Heyday, as well as with Herzl biographer Amos Elon, with whom Schary collaborated. More extensive files on Heyday are part of the GENERAL WRITINGS subseries and additional correspondence with Elon can be found in the Herzl production files. Of note in the General File are correspondence, notes, and legal material regarding Schary's occasional disputes with Hollywood columnist Hedda Hopper.

The PRODUCTION FILES, 1944-1980, document Schary's work on specific film, television, and theater projects, not all of which were produced. In addition to substantial files on the plays F.D.R. and Herzl, there is material on the films Act One and I'll Be Seeing You, and the play One by One, adapted from his family memoir For Special Occasions, and “Storm in the West,” the allegorical western by Schary and Sinclair that Schary wanted to bring to the stage as a musical.

The ANTI-DEFAMATION LEAGUE subseries in this addition is a small group of clippings, articles, and ADL reports pertaining to topics such as the Arab influence in the United States, Black-Jewish relations, Israel, Zionism, and the Palestinian Liberation Organization. There is an occasional memorandum or letter by Schary, but the file is essentially made up of informational material.

GENERAL WRITINGS consists of Schary's speeches from the 1970s, together with some supplementary correspondence and notes, and non-theatrical writings. Many of Schary's speeches during the period consist of tributes to figures such as Hale Boggs, Hubert Humphrey, and Roy Wilkins. Other writings here primarily document research and writings for Heyday. Included are correspondence, research notes, and several versions of the book in manuscript form. The remainder of the subseries contains articles, notes, and musical scores for Song of a Citizen, for which Schary wrote the lyrics.

This addition also contains 204 DISC RECORDINGS which are a mixture of radio interviews, family celebration, music, and award ceremonies and recordings of Schary's testimony as the 1947 House Un-American Activities Committee. Although these discs have been assigned call number Disc 158A, they have not been fully described. A listing of information transcribed from the disc labels follows the GENERAL WRITINGS in the contents list below.
