Actress Gloria Swanson was born Gloria May Josephine Swanson on March
27, 1899, in Chicago, the only child of Joseph Theodore and Adelaide Klanowsky
Swanson. Her father's position as a civilian supply officer with the army took
the family to Key West, FL and San Juan, Puerto Rico, but the majority of
Swanson's childhood was spent in Chicago.
It was in Chicago at Essanay Studios in 1914 that she began her lifelong
association with the motion picture industry. She moved to California where she
worked for Sennett/Keystone Studios before rising to stardom at Paramount in
such Cecil B. DeMille features as
Male and Female (1919) and
The Affairs of Anatol (1921). At the height
of her career in 1925 (already a veteran of some fifty films), she ended her
long association with Paramount in order to become a partner with United
Artists, independently producing her own films. Though producing artistically
successful films such as
Sadie Thompson (1928) and her first talkie,
The Trespasser (1929), both of which earned
her Academy Award nominations, the financial strains of her production
companies all but ended her career. After her final United Artists feature
release in 1933, she made only one other film (for Fox Films) during the
1930s.
In 1938, Swanson relocated to New York City, where she began an
inventions and patents company which occupied her during the years of World War
II. She made another film for RKO Radio Pictures in 1941, began appearing in
theatre productions, and also had her own television show in 1948, but it was
not until 1950 when
Sunset Boulevard was released (earning her
another Academy award nomination), that she achieved mass recognition again.
The boost provided by this film resulted in a number of successes, such as
appearances on Broadway in
Twentieth Century, and commercial ventures,
such as her line of clothing for Puritan Fashions.
Swanson made only three films after
Sunset Boulevard, but starred in numerous
stage and television productions during her remaining years. She was active in
various business ventures, travelled extensively, wrote articles, columns, and
an autobiography, painted and sculpted, and became a passionate advocate of
various health and nutrition topics.
Married six times (to Wallace Beery, Herbert K. Somborn, Marquis Henri
de la Falaise, Michael Farmer, William M. Davey, and William Dufty), Swanson
had two daughters (Gloria Somborn and Michelle Farmer), an adoptive son (Joseph
Patrick Swanson), and several grandchildren and great-grandchildren by the time
of her death in New York, on April 4, 1983.

The papers of actress Gloria Swanson (ca. [18--]-1988, bulk 1920-1983,
620 boxes) document her career accomplishments, her business ventures and her
various interests, as well as her childhood, family, personal relationships,
and private life. Included are correspondence, photographs, scripts, production
records, financial and legal records, publicity materials, clippings,
scrapbooks, published materials, film, audio recordings, music, writings, art
work, and artifacts.
In the foreword to her autobiography, Swanson explained her eighty year
accumulation of "files and scrapbooks and photographs and films and letters
and documents" with the statement "I never throw anything away." Also a
diligent custodian, she shepherded records from California to New York,
installed state-of-the-art mechanical filing cabinets in her office in the
1950s, and even hired an archivist to order her papers after they were
"ransacked" during the writing of
Swanson on Swanson. This process was begun
in 1980 by Raymond W. Daum.
The collection is now arranged in seven Series: I. Correspondence
(1907-1983, 85 boxes), II. Career (ca. 1914-1983, 118 boxes), III. Business
Interests (1921-1982, 76 boxes), IV. Other Interests (1923-1983, 51 boxes), V.
Biographical/Personal Papers (ca. [18--]-1983, 110 boxes), VI. After Death
(1983-1988, 1 box), and VII. Formats (1889-1983, 147 boxes). Though these
groupings represent a comprehensive structure never realized during Swanson's
lifetime, they continue, to some extent, the arrangement process begun in 1980.
Internal files document various surveys of the papers, 1980-1982 (see folders
16.4-17.8).
As many files as possible have been placed in the context of their
original creation, left in their original order, and grouped together in the
appropriate series. Materials which had apparently been separated for research
or otherwise segregated (such as "VIP" correspondence) have been
reintegrated into the collection. Other parts of the collection, which were so
chaotic as to be virtually unuseable (i.e., United Artists, Health and
Nutrition subseries, clippings, photographs, etc.), have had order imposed upon
them.
The collection contains extensive records (including numerous film
stills) of Swanson's career in motion pictures, encompassing sixty-six films,
ca. 1914-1975. Her film career spanned the early days of slapstick two-reelers,
the peak of the silent era, and the transition to sound and other technological
developments. Her role as one of the first women to independently produce her
own films at United Artists, 1925-1933, is traced by the records of her
production companies. These companies produced six of her films, including the
controversial
Sadie Thompson, and the legendary Erich von
Stroheim fiasco
Queen Kelly, as well as her first
"talkie,"
The Trespasser. Swanson's watershed role of
later years, that of Norma Desmond in Billy Wilder's
Sunset Boulevard (1950), is also well
documented.
Also represented is Swanson's involvement in other entertainment
branches, which extended to radio (1927-1981, including
The Gloria Swanson Show, 1951), television
(1944-1981, including
The Gloria Swanson Hour broadcast during the
"stone age" of television in 1948), and theatre (1937-1977, including three
Broadway productions,
Twentieth Century, Nina, and
Butterflies Are Free).
Numerous scripts, synopses, stories, and treatments, representing
writers such as Zoë Akins, Jay Presson Allen, Lenore J. Coffee, James Ashmore
Creelman, Lilyan Kemble Cooper, Laura Hope Crews, Delmer Daves, William Dufty,
Laurence Eyre, Allan Jay Friedman, Leonard Gershe, Forrest Halsey, Ben Hecht,
Harold J. Kennedy, Alan Jay Lerner, Josephine Lovett, Clare Boothe Luce, Joseph
L. Mankiewicz, Frances Marion, Richard Matheson, Preston Sturges, C. Gardner
Sullivan, Erich von Stroheim, and Billy Wilder, are also present in the
collection.
The film stills and other numerous photographs in this collection
include the work of many photographers, among them Ernest A. Bachrach, Edward
O. Bagley, Russell Ball, Cecil Beaton, Marcus Blechman, Clarence Sinclair Bull,
Harold Carter, Irving Chidnoff, William Eglinton, Eliot Elisofon, G.L. Manuel
Frères, Maurice Goldberg, Ellen Graham, Philippe Halsman, George
Hoyningen-Huene, George Hurrell, G. Maillard Kesslere, Donald Biddle Keyes,
Roddy McDowall, Jack Mitchell, Nickolas Muray, Alexander Phillips, Melbourne
Spurr, Edward Steichen, Karl Struss, Stig Svedfelt, and others.
Swanson also kept extensive records of her efforts as a businesswoman,
which included cosmetics, a fashion line, hosiery, an inventions and patents
company, a travel agency, and writing assignments. Included are the records of
Gloria Swanson Enterprises, Inc. (1959-1977) and Swanson-Dufty Enterprises,
Inc. (1977-1981), as well as the papers of Multiprises, Inc. (1937-1951), which
financed and exploited various inventions by a group of four World War II
refugee inventors from Austria and Germany. Her fruitful and long lived
association with Puritan Fashions Corp. (1951-1982) is captured in the archive,
as are numerous writing projects, culminating in her popular autobiography,
Swanson on Swanson (1980).
Additionally, the collection also contains evidence of Swanson's varied
personal enthusiasms: art (original art and sculpture by Miss Swanson,
including a design for a United Nations Postal Administration stamp issue
commemorating the Decade for Women, 1980); fashion (in addition to costume
designs and the records of her commercial clothing line, there are associations
with designers such as Coco Chanel, Edith Head, René Hubert, Givenchy, Pauline
Trigere, Adam Werlé, and Valentina); health and nutrition (an early enthusiast
of organic foods, her papers document a tireless crusade against chemical
additives, inorganic pesticides, and pollution, her efforts in the passage of
the so-called Delaney Bill in 1958, and participation in the Independent Cancer
Research Foundation, the Committee for Independent Cancer Research, and the
Patients' Aid Society); music (she sang on film, television, and stage, and
numbered George Gershwin, Rosa Ponselle, and Jascha Heifetz among her friends);
psychic phenomena and religion (her proclivities as a spiritual seeker are
indicated in materials concerning such organizations as ESP Research Associates
Foundation, the United Church of Religious Science, and the University of
Science and Philosophy); politics (her campaign activities for Wendell Willkie,
Thomas E. Dewey, and Ronald Reagan are included); science and technology
(including visits to Bell Helicopter and to NASA, from which she cherished an
autographed picture and drawings by Werner von Braun); and travel (England,
France, Italy, Japan, Mexico, Portugal, Spain, Russia, and Sweden, represented
chiefly through photographs).
Swanson's childhood, family life, and personal life are further
documented through such personal papers as address books, appointment books,
photographs, and various personal financial, legal, and property records.
There is a wide range of correspondence, located primarily in Series I.,
but also scattered through the other series due to the inevitable overlap of
personal, career, business, and other relationships. Among Miss Swanson's
correspondents are family, friends, business associates, acquaintances, and
fans, spanning many notables from numerous fields of endeavor: Michelle Amon,
Kenneth Anger, Robert Balzer, Vilma Banky, Beverly Bayne, Henry G. Bieler, Earl
Blackwell, Virginia Bowker, Charles Brackett, Lewis L. Bredin, Harry A. Bruno,
Carol Burnett, George Bush, Francis X. Bushman, Richard Evelyn Byrd, Walter

An extensive index of correspondents (which also includes photographic
subjects, prominent photographers, and some topics) has been created in order
to locate materials which are dispersed through the collection. The index is
selective and should by no means be considered exhaustive. Persons and subjects
were selected for their own intrinsic importance, as well as their quantity and
importance within the collection. Individual actors in the stills are
not indexed. However, a Film Credits List is
included in this inventory which lists the individual cast members for each of
Swanson's films.
Though this collection is substantially complete, it is probably weakest
in the area of personal materials for the 1920s through the mid-1940s. The
permanent move to New York in the late 1930s, the arrival of long-time staffers
such as Gladys Griffith in the 1940s, and the longevity of these arrangements
seem to have contributed to a more stable and consistent climate in which the
more comprehensive papers of the 1950s through the 1970s were created. Items
not present in this archive include the bulk of Miss Swanson's film holdings,
which were acquired by George Eastman House in 1967. For further information on
those materials, see folders 201.1-201.8. For the disposition of certain other
items after her death in 1983, see box 441.

1907-1983 (bulk 1950s-1960s), 85 boxes |
|
Includes correspondence, with various enclosures (clippings,
photographs, financial or legal documents, script proposals, etc.) from Miss
Swanson's family, friends, business associates, acquaintances, and fans,
1907-1983 (bulk 1950s-1960s). This series is divided into General
Correspondence, Unidentified Correspondence, Book Withdrawals, Fan Mail, and
Fan Address Cards. |
|
|
|
Subseries A. General Correspondence,
1907-1983, 65 boxes |
|
|
|
Arrangement of this subseries is alphabetical by name or subject,
with chronological groupings within each letter of the alphabet. This appears
to be the manner in which Miss Swanson's staff (chiefly Gladys Griffith) kept
her papers, from the mid-1940s through the 1970s. Carbons of outgoing
correspondence were generally kept with the pertinent incoming correspondence.
The relatively small (and mostly unorganized) amounts of general correspondence
from the 1920s, 1930s, and 1980s have been regularized into this system. Most
correspondence from the 1920s and 1930s is film related and located in Series
II., Career, especially in the United Artists subseries. The 1940s are most
prominently represented in the Multiprises, Inc. subseries of Series III.,
Business Interests. |
|
|
|
While a number of correspondence files dealing with specific
topics such as film, television, theatre, business projects, etc. have been
placed in more appropriate series dealing with Miss Swanson's career and
business interests, this subseries should by no means be regarded as purely
personal correspondence. Many relationships overlapped personal, career,
business, and other interests to a great extent. |
|
|
|
Among Miss Swanson's myriad correspondents, reflecting the wide
range of her career, her business associates, her interests, and her personal
relationships, are: |

Ghika, and Prince Franz Hohenlohe. |
|
|
|
Family correspondence includes the earliest items in this
subseries, that from Swanson's parents (Joseph Theodore Swanson and Adelaide
Woodruff). Also present is correspondence from her children (Gloria Daly,
Joseph Patrick Swanson, and Michelle Farmer Amon), and husbands (Herbert K.
Somborn, Henri de la Falaise, Michael Farmer, William Davey, and William
Dufty), as well as from various aunts, uncles, cousins, and grandchildren. |
|
|
|
Correspondence with the various professionals and personnel
employed by Miss Swanson frequently offers deeper insights into the details of
her life and career: |
|
|
|
Accountants: Ernest du Belier,
Equitable Investment Corporation, Noah Gallop & Company, David R.
Shelton; |
|
|
|
Agents: Helen Ainsworth, Avis Caminez,
Famous Artists Corp., General Artists Corp., Hawks-Volck Corporation, Harold J.

|
|
Personal Staff: Brandy Brent, Wally
Cedar, Grace Crossman, Raymond Witham Daum, Gladys Griffith, Lance Heath, Ethel
Helmsing, Thomas Allen Moore, Edith Simonson, and Irving Wakoff; |
|
|
|
The correspondence of personal intimates such as Robert Balzer,
Virginia Bowker, Gladys Griffith, Ethel Helmsing, René Hubert, Beatrice
LaPlante, Frances Marion, Marshall Neilan, LeRoy P. ("Sport") Ward, and
Lois Wilson provide more lengthy and revealing glimpses of friendships.
Correspondence from Lewis L. Bredin, Herbert Marshall, Joel McCrea, and Gustave
Schirmer documents other close relationships. There is relatively little
correspondence with Joseph P. Kennedy (most of it appearing in Series II.,
Career) and it is generally characterized by business dealings. |
|
|
|
Among some of the more intriguing pieces of correspondence are: a
letter from a twelve year old John F. Kennedy, thanking Miss Swanson for a
Christmas present; a signed, self-caricature note from George Gershwin; René
Hubert's voluminous, illustrated correspondence; early papers of Herbert K.
Somborn's company, Equity Pictures; and the series of "hate mail" from
Kenneth Anger, which arose from a lawsuit involving his book
Hollywood Babylon.
|
|
|
|
Subseries B. Unidentified Correspondence,
1910s-1970s, 10 folders |
|
|
|
Correspondence is separated into outgoing (1 folder) and incoming
(9 folders) correspondence, and then arranged chronologically insofar as
possible. Most of these are signed only with first names, or are unsigned, or
illegible. |
|
|
|
Subseries C. Book Withdrawals,
1924-1982, 1 folder |
|
|
|
Includes 14 items of correspondence which were withdrawn from
books in Miss Swanson's personal library. Her library is cataloged in the
University of Texas online catalog (UTCAT), and copies of the relevant catalog
cards are sleeved with each piece of correspondence. |
|
|
|
Subseries D. Fan Mail,
1910s-1982, 9 boxes |
|
|
|
This correspondence remains organized in the two groups in which
it was found: one chronological group, the other grouped by subject, name or
other category. Some fans, such as Amber Rau and Sonya Rudzinski, became
friends and more of their correspondence is found in the General Correspondence
files. Others, such as Aario Marist, remained unknown to Miss Swanson, but
continued to send large amounts of correspondence. Many fans included sketches,
drawings or other art work depicting Miss Swanson with their correspondence.
Occasionally, the letters are annotated with Miss Swanson's comments or
reactions, or carbons of responses are included. |
|
|
|
Fan mail also frequently appears in files scattered through Series
II. Career, in files dealing with particular film, radio, television or stage
appearances. |
|
|
|
Subseries E. Fan Address Cards,
nd, 11 boxes |
|
|
|
These boxes contain fans' addresses kept on index cards. These
were removed from metal file card boxes, but kept in Swanson's order of United
States (A-Z) and Foreign (A-Z). Occasionally there are notes that a photograph
or letter was sent, or perhaps a phone call was made. These cards were possibly
used in connection with mass mailings, such as
Gloria Swanson's Diary, a publicity
and merchandising publication from the 1950s. |

Series II. Career,
ca. 1914-1983, 118 boxes |
|
Included in this Series are materials documenting all aspects of
Miss Swanson's career accomplishments, 1914-1983. This series is divided into
the following subseries: Film, Film Festivals, Radio, Sound Recording,
Television, Theatre, Proposed Projects, and Miscellaneous Career Related. |
|
|
|
Subseries A. Film,
ca. 1914-1983, 63 boxes |
|
|
|
The film subseries is arranged chronologically by studio, and
within each studio phase, chronologically by the release date of the film. For
each film, materials are usually grouped alphabetically by the format of the
items. |
|
|
|
Documentation varies widely from film to film, through most are
represented by stills. The stills have been put in key-number order, i.e., the
numbers assigned to each shot by the studio. Those lacking key-numbers were put
as nearly as possible in the order of the plot. Any candid set shots are
usually filed at the end of the stills. Due to the variable condition of the
photographs, especially for the earlier films, multiple stills have been left
together unless they were so numerous as to hamper efficient viewing of the
folders. In those cases (
Father Takes a Wife, and several of
the United Artists productions), multiples have been housed separately. |
|
|
|
Individual actors in the stills are
not indexed. Refer to the Film Credits
List in the appendix in order to identify particular actors and which of
Swanson's films they appeared in, and then look at the files on that particular
film or films. The index does include references to persons with non-acting
credits who may appear in the photographs, however. |
|
|
|
Nearly all of Swanson's sixty-six films, 1914-1975, are included
in this subseries, with coverage for the earliest years at Essanay Studios,
Sennett-Keystone Studios, and Triangle Company being the sparsest. The Famous
Players-Lasky Corp./Paramount Pictures period, 1919-1926, is more
comprehensively documented with groups of stills and scrapbooks, clippings,
correspondence, contracts, and publicity items. The substantial correspondence,
legal, financial, and production records of the United Artists period,
1925-1933, occupy forty boxes, while only meagre files remain for
Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer Studios, Fox Films, and Columbia Pictures Corp. to
elucidate Swanson's career during the rest of the 1930s. The scattered later
films with RKO Radio Pictures, Paramount Pictures Corp., Warner Brothers,
Titanus-Lux Films, and Universal City Studios, Inc. complete this subseries. Of
these, the fullest records exist for Swanson's famous appearance in Paramount's
Sunset Boulevard in 1950. A small
group of unidentified stills and photographs completes this subseries. |
|
|
|
Actual film footage of Swanson contained in the collection has
been stored separately, and now forms a part of Series VII. |
|
|
|
|
Subseries A1. Essanay Studios,
ca. 1914-192-, 3 folders |
|
|
|
|
Consists of a still from one film (
His New Job, starring Charlie
Chaplin, with Swanson in a bit part), a group of publicity photographs
(including Swanson among the players), and another larger group of company
photographs, which probably predate Swanson's tenure at Essanay. |
|
|
|
|
Accompanying this larger group of photographs is correspondence
from Ruth Cahill, who sent the photographs to Swanson after reading
Swanson on Swanson. She had worked
in the Chicago building formerly occupied by Essanay, where she found some old
negatives. The photographs printed from these negatives yielded Essanay group
portraits, stills, and shots of sets, as well as pictures of company stars such
as Beverly Bayne, Wallace Beery, and Rod LaRocque. |
|
|
|
|
Subseries A2. Sennett-Keystone Studios,
ca. 1916-1930, 16 folders |
|
|
|
|
Includes stills, publicity and other photographs, a poster
reproduction, a program, scrapbooks, and a title card, which represent ten of
Swanson's Sennett-Keystone features, the best represented of which is
Teddy at the Throttle.
|
|
|
|
|
Subseries A3. Triangle Company,
ca. 1918, 2 folders |
|
|
|
|
This is the least well represented period of Swanson's career in
this collection, with only two publicity photographs and one keyplate (showing
19 stills) from the feature
Shifting Sands. A few scrapbooks
also contain clippings concerning her Triangle features. |
|
|
|
|
Subseries A4. Famous Players-Lasky Corp./Paramount
Pictures,
ca. 1918-192, 11 boxes |
|
|
|
|
Though predominately comprised of stills and other photographs,
this subseries also contains clippings, contracts, correspondence, financial
information, lobby cards, music, play and story booklets, post cards, programs,
scrapbooks, and title cards. All twenty-seven of Swanson's silent Paramount
films, during what is obviously the most productive period of her career, are
represented to varying degrees. These include films with several distinguished
directors: Cecil B. DeMille (6 films), Sam Wood (10 films), and Allan Dwan (8
films). The most fully documented film is
Madame Sans-Gêne, the 1925
production made on location in France. |
|
|
|
|
Correspondents include Cecil B. DeMille, Jesse L. Lasky, and
Adolph Zukor. |

Subseries A5. United Artists,
1925-1943, 40 boxes |
|
|
|
|
In 1925, Swanson accepted a proposal from United Artists to
become a partner and produce her own pictures. Due to Paramount contract
obligations, however, she was not able to pursue her role as producer until
1926. This subseries consists of the records of her various production
companies, 1925-1943: |
|
|
|
|
Due to the overlap of operations of these corporate entities and
the various films in different stages of production, Correspondence, Financial
Records, and Legal Documents have been arranged chronologically. Production
records are filed chronologically by production title, i.e.
The Love of Sunya (1927),
Sadie Thompson (1928),
Queen Kelly (unreleased),
The Trespasser (1929),
What a Widow! (1930)
Rock-a-Bye (abandoned),
Indiscreet (1931),
Tonight or Never (1931), and
A Perfect Understanding (1933).
Internal cross references have been made from financial records and legal
documents to the individual productions to which they refer. |
|
|
|
|
Correspondence in this subseries, spanning 1925-1942 (bulk
1925-1933), occupies four boxes and all authors and recipients have been
included in the Index to this collection. Prominent correspondents include
Pierre A. Bedard, Virginia Bowker, Walter Byron, Charlie Chaplin, Lenore
Coffee, Grace Crossman, Andre Daven, Cecil B. DeMille, E. B. Derr, Laurence
Eyre, Douglas Fairbanks, Blanche Frederici, Elinor Glyn, Samuel Goldwyn, Edmund
Goulding, D. W. Griffith, Texas Guinan, Will H. Hays, Lance Heath, Buster
Keaton, Arthur W. Kelly, Joseph P. Kennedy, Henri de la Falaise, Josephine
Lovett, Clare Marafioti, Louis B. Mayer, Thomas A. Moore, Conrad Nagel, Condé
Nast, Bertram S. Nayfack, Dennis F. O'Brien, Albert Parker, Mary Pickford,
Harry Poppe, Joseph M. Schenck, C. J. Scollard, Charles E. Sullivan, Constance
Talmadge, Norma Talmadge, Erich von Stroheim, Irving R. Wakoff, Raoul Walsh,
Jack Warner, and Lois Wilson. Most later correspondence (1938-1942) comes from
United Artists and concerns the destruction of various prints of films. |
|
|
|
|
Eighteen boxes contain financial records, 1926-1943. Present, in
varying degrees over the years, are accounts payable, accounts receivable,
audit reports, balance sheets, bills, budgets, checks (cancelled, carbons),
certified accounts, disbursement vouchers, insurance, notes, production costs,
production payrolls, purchase orders, reconciliations, taxes, trial balances,
unfinished picture costs, and voucher registers. Though Swanson's association
with United Artists ended in 1933, financial records, chiefly due to foreign
receipts records, continue through 1943. Also present are United Artists
financial statements, 1931-1932. Since there was apparently also some degree of
overlap between Swanson's corporate and personal finances, the personal
financial records in Series V. may provide further elucidation. |
|
|
|
|
Legal documents encompass two boxes of corporate records and
contracts for the period 1925-1934. The records within these folders have been
described at the item level. Most items concern Swanson's companies and the
various productions, though some concern other owned, but unproduced
properties. A protracted financial dispute with director Albert Parker is also
documented. |
|
|
|
|
The films themselves are represented by a wide range of
production records, 1926-1943: art, call sheets, cameraman's daily reports,
cost sheets, clippings, costume plots, cutting scripts, daily developing
reports, daily print reports, daily production reports, daily script notes,
delivery reports, dialogue notes, director's projecting reports, editors
notebooks, equipment inventories, extra talent plots, film shipments, location
notes, music, negative orders, permits, photographs, post cards, preview cards,
production reports, promotional items, props, posters, publications, publicity,
research, schedules, scene plots, scripts, set notes, sound reports, stage
logs, stills, title cards, titles, wardrobe notes, and worksheets. |
|
|
|
|
A glance at the folder list of surviving production records for
the films will show that documentation of the films varies considerably.
Swanson's controversial
Sadie Thompson, the first film
version of Somerset Maugham's short story "Rain," and the legendary Erich
von Stroheim fiasco
Queen Kelly are the best documented
of the productions. Indeed, the extensive
Queen Kelly files occupy eight boxes
and have been subdivided into seven different production phases--Erich von
Stroheim, Paul Stein, Richard Boleslavksy, Harry Poppe, and Gloria Swanson, as
well as two "interim" phases. Only minimal information is included on the
abandoned
Rock-a-Bye and the Swanson features
produced by other United Artists producers,
Indiscreet (Joseph Schenck) and
Tonight Or Never (Samuel
Goldwyn). |

correspondence, invitations, photographs, posters, press releases, programs,
receipts, schedules, and speeches. The files are arranged chronologically
(1954-1982) and include A Tribute to Gloria Swanson at George Eastman House in

document Swanson's radio appearances, 1927-1981. The types of programs include
interviews, radio plays, serials, patriotic appeals during World War II,
commercials, and talk shows. |
|
|
|
Most of the material is arranged chronologically by program,
1934-1977. These files typically contain a script, synopsis, or story outline,
plus any related correspondence or other items. The correspondence files,
1927-1981, generally represent programs for which no material other than
correspondence exists. |
|
|
|
It was not always possible to distinguish proposed shows from
actual performances using surviving documentation, thus no attempt has been
made to differentiate the status of the programs. |
|
|
|
Of particular interest in this subseries are
The Gloria Swanson Show (1950-1951),
and the
Lux Radio Theatre version of
Sunset Boulevard (1951). |

Several commercial recordings by Swanson are among the Audio Discs
included in Series VII. |
|
|
|
Subseries E. Television,
1944-1981, 11 boxes |

shooting schedules, contracts and other legal documents, financial information,
photographs, music, publicity, clippings, and notes relating to Miss Swanson's
appearances or proposed appearances on television, 1944-1981. |
|
|
|
The papers have been kept in their original categories of
Appearances (1944-1981), Mexican Television (1950-1954), and Proposed
Television (1949-1979). Files for appearances and proposed television are
arranged chronologically while the Mexican Television files are arranged
topically. |
|
|
|
The files concerning individual shows, almost 8 boxes, make up the
largest part of this subseries. Included are documentation of the
The Gloria Swanson Hour, broadcast
over WPIX in New York during 1948, her activities as host of the 1953
Crown Theatre series, as well as
appearances on a number of interview shows, game shows, series, and specials.

|
|
|

occupy about eighteen boxes of this subseries. The remaining two boxes contain
correspondence and scripts for proposed theatrical performances, 1937-1976, and
a small group of unidentified theatre photographs. |
|
|
|
Notable are files on three Broadway productions,
Twentieth Century (1950-1951),
Nina (1951-1952), and

|
|
|

|
Chiefly correspondence and scripts, synopses, and treatments,
related to proposed film, radio, television, and theatre projects under
consideration by Swanson, ca. [192-]-1982. |
|
|
|
These papers have been left as they were found, generally
separated into correspondence (arranged chronologically) and scripts (arranged
alphabetically by title). Some scripts also included associated correspondence,
financial information, and clippings, which have been kept with the appropriate
script. Where available, authors and dates have been transcribed in the folder
list. |
|
|
|
Several scripts date from Swanson's early United Artists days (
The Battalion of Death, Desert Love, The
Stenog), including some which were either written and/or owned by Henri
de la Falaise (
Antiques, Paris Luck, The Star of the Opera).
Another large group of scripts were written by William Dufty (

|
|
|

|
|
|
The largest group of files included here center around the later
records of
Queen Kelly, ca. 1956-1985,
documenting ownership, copyright, domestic and foreign showings, television
rights, use in documentary films, etc. Some French language materials are
included in the

investments, merchandising ventures, organic foods, perfume, product
endorsements, travel, and writing projects. |
|
This Series is divided as follows: Business Investments, Cosmetics,

Swanson-Dufty Enterprises, Inc., Travel Agent, Writing Projects, and

|
|
|
Includes brochures, correspondence, contracts, formulae, package
designs, photographs, and promotional material relating to Miss Swanson's
various commercial ventures involving cosmetics, ca. [192-]-1968. Files are
arranged chronologically. |
|
|
|
This subseries consists largely of information concerning her
Essence of Nature Cosmetics line, 1965-1968, which was manufactured from
organic, natural ingredients by Vegetable Products Company, Inc. |
|
|
|
Other files represent various proposed investments or projects
with Marion Davies, Bebe Daniels, the Quaker Oats Company, Dalty &
Associates, and Lena Horne Cosmetics. |
|
|
|
Correspondents include Richard Albino (Approved Advertising &
Art), Leon T. Dalty, Jack Mitchell, Gabriel Reeder (Vegetable Products Company,
Inc.), Charles Revson, Carl Rosen (Puritan Fashions Corp.), and R. Lawrence
Siegel. |
|
|
|
Subseries C. Fashion,

|
|
|
Clippings, contracts, correspondence, dress labels, fashion
sketches, financial information, maps, photographs, promotional materials, and
tour schedules evidence Miss Swanson's business activities in the commercial
fashion world, ca. 1940-1982. Files are arranged chronologically. |
|
|
|
Nine boxes contain the records of her long association with
Puritan Dress Company (later Puritan Fashions Corp.), ca. 1951-1982 (bulk
1951-1961). She promoted a line of Gloria Swanson "Forever Young" fashions
largely through arduous (Swanson called them "Death of a Saleswoman") tours
to department stores where she made personal appearances and conducted fashion
shows. Her extensive tour files were maintained by year and by city, and
usually contain local newspaper clippings, photographs, correspondence with
department store owners and personnel, local response, programs, schedules,
etc. |
|
|
|
Other business ventures included attempted forays into Italian
knitwear with Laura Aponte, Sergio Simioni, and Lida di Trepuzzi (Caterina
Mazzotta), ca. 1963-1968. |

|
|
|
Subseries D. Gloria Swanson Enterprises, Inc.,
ca. 1959-1977, 4 boxes |
|
|
|
Financial and legal records (plus a small amount of
correspondence) document Gloria Swanson Enterprises, Inc., a Delaware
corporation formed June 2, 1959. Materials are arranged first by form
(correspondence, financial records, legal records) and then
chronologically. |
|
|
|
The initial purpose of the corporation appears to have been as a
vehicle for various merchandising ventures. The company seems to have lain
dormant from about 1962 until 1967 or 1968 when it began to be used for a
variety of projects. These included the exploitation of film copyrights,
scripts, and other properties owned by Swanson, as well as her services as
performer or for personal appearances. William Dufty was also involved in this
venture, and there is information on a number of his projects, such as
Sugar Blues. A substantial history of
the background of this corporation appears in R. Lawrence Siegel's letter dated
17 June 1974 (see folder 220.8). |
|
|
|
A note in the files indicates that the corporation was dissolved,
but no date is given. Most likely Swanson-Dufty Enterprises, Ltd., formed in
1977, took its place. |
|
|
|
Subseries E. Gloria Swanson Products Corp.,
1970-1973, 4 folders |
|
|
|
Correspondence, contracts, and stock certificates of a corporation
which was to be used in connection with merchandising organic food products,
but which apparently was never realized. |
|
|
|
Subseries F. Glory B Enterprises,
1958, 1 folder |
|
|
|
Notes, and bank and legal forms, apparently concerning a proposed
consolidation of various business activities. Possibly a precursor to Gloria
Swanson Enterprises, Inc., formed in 1959. |
|
|
|
Subseries G. Hosiery,
ca. 1961-1962, 1 box |
|
|
|
Includes correspondence, clippings, financial information,
photographs, price lists, and promotional material relating to Gloria Swanson
Nylons, manufactured by Sheffield Hosiery Mills, Inc., ca. 1961-1962. |
|
|
|
The principal correspondent is Leonard J. Solomon, president of
Sheffield. Of special note are a letter indicating that samples were sent to
the seven Mercury astronauts' wives as a promotional activity, and thank you
replies from Trudy Cooper, Annie Glenn, Jo Schirra, and Margie Slayton. A
promotional trip to Columbus, OH involved Miss Swanson's attendance as special
guest at Ohio State University's homecoming football game against the
University of Iowa. The program for this game is included in this
subseries. |
|
|
|
Subseries H. Multiprises, Inc.,
ca. 1937-1951 (bulk 1938-1943), 32 boxes |
|
|
|
Includes correspondence, contracts, corporate records and other
legal documents, financial information, patents and patent applications,
drawings, blueprints, samples, brochures, photographs, and clippings concerning
Multiprises, Inc., a company incorporated by Miss Swanson on July 6, 1938, to
finance and exploit inventions. |
|
|
|
The original alphabetical order of these files has been recreated
insofar as possible according to file listings found in a record book dated
1940 (see folder 225.4). The order of materials within the files has not been
altered. When old file folders included notes (mostly dates when inventions and
projects were abandoned), the annotated portions were retained within the new
folders. |
|
|
|
The majority of this subseries concerns Swanson's employment of
four World War II refugee inventors from Austria and Germany: Leopold Karniol
(chemist, plastics expert), Richard Kobler, Anton Kratky (metallurgist), and
Leopold Neumann (acoustical engineer). Chief among their successes was the
Kratky process of producing hard carbide tools and tips out of cemented
carbides. The records of Forged Carbides, Inc. (ca. 1939-1942) reflect the
manufacture and practical application of this invention. For memoranda
concerning the history of Forged Carbides, see folder 235.19. Karniol's process
for the manufacture of plastic buttons was successfully exploited through an
agreement with the Lindenhurst Manufacturing Company of New Jersey. There are
also substantial files on acoustical inventions of Leopold Neumann, such as
recordings for the blind, and dictating machine equipment. |
|
|
|
The rest of the records deal with various ideas and inventions,
both solicited and unsolicited, from a number of persons, including such
inventors as Joseph Ganz and even Miss Swanson herself. Types of ideas and
inventions represented include appliances, automobiles, chemicals, clothing,
film-related, household objects, industrial processes, implements, machinery,
medicines, and musical instruments, to list a few of the categories. There are
also a number of war-related inventions, such as airplane devices, bombs,
coding machines, guns, and submarine devices. |
|
|
|
Persons connected with the firm included John L. Berggren,
Virginia Bowker, Iphigenia Engel, William B. Jaffe, Clifford M. Larson, Herbert
Luria, Frederick H. MacRobert, George Schlee, Gustave Schirmer, Anne R. Seiler,
and Nathan I. Sommers. |
|
|
|
There is a slight amount of non-business correspondence addressed
to the following: Edna May Cooper, Noel Coward, Henri de la Falaise, Douglas
Fairbanks, Ethel Helmsing, René Hubert, Rod LaRocque, Perry Leiber (RKO),
Frances Marion, Alex Tiers, Dr. Henri Vodescal, and Leroy P. Ward. |
|
|
|
A significant amount of material in these files is in languages
other than English, primarily German and French. |
|
|
|
Subseries I. Perfume,
1952-1961, 2 folders |
|
|
|
Correspondence concerns Miss Swanson's interest in marketing her
own perfume or endorsing a particular scent, and various efforts toward this
end, 1952-1961. |
|
|
|
Subseries J. Product Endorsements,
1949-1981, 2 boxes |
|
|
|
Includes brochures, correspondence, clippings, legal documents,
music, photographs, promotional material, scripts, and story boards documenting
Miss Swanson's role as endorser of various commercial products through the
media of print, radio and television, 1949-1981. Materials are arranged
alphabetically by product or company name. |
|
|
|
The preponderance of this material concerns radio and television
commercials performed for Aldon Rug Mills, ca. 1958-1960. Of particular
interest are the scripts, of which Miss Swanson wrote early drafts, and which
center around various of her interests and activities (art, entertaining,
hobbies and games, and inventions). |
|
|
|
Subseries K. Swanson-Dufty Enterprises, Ltd.,
ca. 1977-1981, 4 boxes |

have been a successor to Gloria Swanson Enterprises, Inc., engaging in the same
types of activities. |
|
|
|
Subseries L. Travel Agent,
1947-1950, 8 folders |
|
|
|

Vaughn Bell, Jack Cohn, William M. Ferris, Jr., René Hubert, and Joseph
Schenck corresponded with Swanson in connection with the Haley Corporation's
services. |
|
|
|
A small group of clippings, photographs, and schedules detail a

|
|
|
Subseries M. Writing Projects,
ca. 1921-1981, 19 boxes |
|
|
|
Includes correspondence, manuscripts (holograph and typescript,
many with corrections), pre-publication states (setting copy, galleys, proofs),
clippings, contracts and other legal documents, financial information, printed
material, research materials, photographs, and publicity materials accumulated
during the writing and publication of various articles, autobiographical
sketches, books, columns, poems, and speeches, ca. 1921-1981. These files are
arranged in chronological order of the creation and/or publication of these
various writings. |
|
|
|
The largest portion of this subseries (10 boxes) is devoted to the
preparation, publication and response to Swanson's candid 1980 autobiography,
Swanson on Swanson. The presence of
earlier autobiographical projects here is of special note, especially the
transcriptions of wire reels upon which Swanson dictated her reminiscences,
probably during the 1950s. The recordings themselves are described with the
other Audio Recordings in this collection. |
|
|
|
Other major projects included
Gloria Swanson's Diary (1954-1955),
apparently an adjunct to her Puritan Fashions line and other merchandising
ventures, and her series of 118 articles for the United Press while traveling
in Europe (1955-1956). Her reports from England, France, Holland, Italy,
Monaco, and Spain cover a wide range of topics, such as famous personalities,
films, entertainment, travel, customs, food and nutrition, fashion, and art. Of
special interest are a series of articles on the marriage of Grace Kelly to
Prince Rainier III of Monaco in 1956, as well as memorabilia associated with
this event. A proposed book project ("How Do You Do It?" ca. 1966-1968),
sought to encompass Miss Swanson's various health and nutrition
convictions. |
|
|
|
The researcher should be aware that earlier writing projects were
frequently used in compiling later writing projects, thus multiple copies of
writings often appear to be scattered through these files. |
|
|
|
Only a slight amount of correspondence with editors, publishers
and sources is included. Correspondents include Frank H. Bartholomew, Robert
Cato, Ross Claiborne, André Daven, René Hubert, Drew Pearson, William Raney,
Rita Rosenkranz, Elaine St. Rogers, Jack Solomon, and Richard Stapley. |
|
|
|
Subseries N. Miscellaneous Business Proposals,
1946-1981, 3 folders |
|
|
|
A small amount of correspondence, arranged chronologically,
concerning various proposals declined or never realized, ca. 1946-1981. Most
extensive are papers concerning the restoration of the Hot Wells Hotel in San
Antonio, Texas, as a health spa. |

Series IV. Other Interests,
1923-1983, 51 boxes |
|
This series consists of files on various topics of interest to
Swanson, 1923-1983, and is divided into these subseries: Art, Health and
Nutrition, Inventions, Political Activities, Psychic and Other Phenomena,
Religion, Science and Technology, and Tax Laws. |
|
|
|
Subseries A. Art,
ca. 1920-1981, 3 boxes |
|
|
|
Consists chiefy of photographs, but clippings, correspondence, and
programs also attest to Swanson's talents as an artist and her interest in art
and artists, ca. [192-]-1981. The files are arranged alphabetically by
topic. |
|
|
|
The photographs depict Swanson drawing, painting, and sculpting,
mostly during the 1950s and 1960s. Also included are photographs of various of
her works, especially her sculptures of such subjects as Lewis L. Bredin,
William Dufty, Michelle Farmer Amon, and herself. Also documented are her 1978
exhibit in London, and her design of a stamp cachet for the World Federation of
United Nations Associations and the United Nations Postal Administration for a
stamp commemorating the Decade for Women (1976-1985). |
|
|
|
The only artist represented by substantial correspondence and
photographs is Fernando Calderón. A small file of photographs records
depictions of Miss Swanson by such artists as Benney, Charles Swanson, Michel
A. Werboff, Strandenés, and Geza Kende. |
|
|
|
Actual art work by Swanson and others is included in Series
VII. |
|
|
|
Subseries B. Health and Nutrition,
ca. 1950-1983, 42 boxes |
|
|
|
Comprised of correspondence, photographs, organizational records
(minutes, by-laws, articles of incorporation), legal documents, and
legislation, but chiefly consists of publications collected (clippings,
articles, pamphlets, flyers, newsletters, reprints, reports, brochures,
catalogs, order forms, price lists) concerning a number of health and nutrition
topics, ca. 1950-1983. |
|
|
|
The materials making up this subseries, except for records of the
various organizations in which Swanson was active, were largely lacking any
organization when received by the Ransom Center. Indeed, much of the material
collected was loose within boxes with no indication of any original order. The
subseries has been arranged alphabetically by person, organization, or topic.
Many of these files consist chiefly of articles, clippings, and other
publications collected on various topics, all of which relate in some fashion
to health and nutrition, but their particular focus concerns the part that
proper nutrition through organic foods can play as a preventative or a
treatment for cancer and other diseases. Swanson frequently wrote comments in
the margins of these publications. |
|
|
|
The organizations in which Swanson was active included the
Independent Cancer Research Foundation, Inc. (later called the Citizens
Research Foundation for the Study of Degenerative Diseases, Inc.), the
Committee for Independent Cancer Research, and the Patients' Aid Society,
Inc. |
|
|
|
Swanson participated as a director periodically between 1953-1981
for the I.C.R.F., a clearinghouse for information on cancer and various
treatments. She was a chairman of the C.I.C.R., ca. 1955-1957, a group
dedicated to investigating all forms of cancer treatment. About three boxes
contain letters from individuals who heard Miss Swanson mention the
organization and a specific treatment (Krebiozen) on such shows as
This Is Your Life and
The Mike Wallace Show during this
period. Swanson was also a director and vice president of the Patients' Aid
Society, Inc., ca. 1959-1968, a group founded by James F. Donnelly to fight
medical abuses and unnecessary surgery. |
|
|
|
Also prominently represented is Swanson's involvement in food
additive legislation introduced by Congressman James J. Delaney. In
Swanson on Swanson, she calls a framed
letter dated 15 August 1958 from Delaney recognizing her efforts in this
connection "her proudest possession." |
|
|
|
Sugar and its various ill effects is also a substantial topic in
this subseries, chiefly in the context of William Dufty's book
Sugar Blues.
|
|
|
|
Only slight information on Miss Swanson's personal diet and data
from various medical examinations is included in the Personal files in this
subseries. Correspondence with her personal physicians, especially Dr. Henry
("Hal") G. Bieler, is another good source of information regarding Miss
Swanson's personal health. Personal health information is also supplemented by
folders 404.1-404.7, which covers 1947-1949. Correspondents in this section
include Henry G. Bieler, James J. Delaney, James F. Donnelly, Gianni A. Dotto,
William Dufty, Allan Jay Friedman, Dr. Andrew C. Ivy, Michio Kushi, Roland V.
Libonati, William Coda Martin, Dorothea Seeber, and Strom Thurmond. |
|
|
|
Subseries C. Inventions,
1926-1957, 1 box |
|
|
|
Swanson's interest in inventions is evidenced by correspondence
with attorneys, drawings, patents and notes for several inventions, 1926-1957.
This small group of inventions both predates and antedates her inventions and
patents company, Multiprises, Inc. Files are arranged chronologically. |
|
|
|
Among her creations included in this subseries are a dustless
broom, a cigarette box with matches attached, a pillow doll and a toothbrush
with various attachments. Two actual inventions of Miss Swanson's are included
in this collection: a cigarette holder designed to fit on a finger, and a
jewelled fan housing a mirror and lipstick, which was used in the film
What a Widow!
|
|
|
|
Subseries D. Political Activities,
1923-1983, 2 boxes |
|
|
|
Materials included in this subseries range from a single affidavit
of voter registration dated 1923 to a substantial file evidencing support for
Ronald Reagan and George Bush, 1980-1983. Included are brochures, campaign
materials, clippings, correspondence, pamphlets, photographs, and speeches,
1923-1983. Files are arranged chronologically. |
|
|
|
Also documented are her support of Republican candidates in the
1940 (Wendell L. Willkie) and 1944 (Thomas E. Dewey and John W. Bricker)
presidential races. Her activities for the Reagan-Bush ticket, 1980-1983,
included serving as the New York chairman for Seniors for Reagan-Bush and as
honorary chairman of the United Conservative Action Committee. Correspondence
from both Reagan and Bush are included, as well as from a number of Republican
and conservative organizations concerning fund-raising activities. |
|
|
|
Only small amounts of information are included here on such
concerns as health and nutrition, and other topics such as the election of John
F. Kennedy in 1960, communism, nuclear armament, and the United Nations. |
|
|
|
Subseries E. Psychic and Other Phenomena,
1950-1982, 1 box |
|
|
|
A small collection of correspondence, clippings, photographs, and
publications highlight Miss Swanson's interest in the topics of astrology and
ESP, ca. 1950-1982. These papers are arranged alphabetically by topic, person,
or organization. |
|
|
|
Especially prominent is her association with Harold Sherman and
ESP Research Associates Foundation, resulting in her participation in the
Body/Mind/Spirit Workshop of 1977. |
|
|
|
Subseries F. Religion,
1951-1983, 1 box |
|
|
|
Correspondence, notes, programs, publications and sermons
demonstrate Miss Swanson's interest in various aspects of religion, 1951-1983.
These are arranged alphabetically by topic, person, or organization. |
|
|
|
Most prominent among these papers are those concerning the United
Church of Religious Science, including Swanson's involvement in their
Scientific Approach to Spiritual Healing Symposium in 1973. |
|
|
|
Subseries G. Science and Technology,
1940s-1975, 1 box |
|
|
|
Brochures, correspondence, drawings, and photographs evince Miss
Swanson's continuing interest in science and technological applications, ca.
1940s-1975. The files are arranged chronologically. |
|
|
|
These include photographs of Miss Swanson's visits with Bell
Helicopters in the 1940s-1950s, and to NASA in 1963, where she met Werner von
Braun. His drawings used to illustrate their discussion of space travel are
included in this subseries. Also recorded is her continuing association with
Richard Kobler (one of her Multiprises, Inc. inventors), who later worked for
Thomas A. Edison Industries. |
|
|
|
Subseries H. Tax Laws,
1949-1976 (bulk 1971-1974), 1 box |
|
|
|
Correspondence, clippings, notes, pamphlets, publications, and
speeches represent Miss Swanson's concern with various tax laws, 1949-1975.
Files are arranged chronologically. |
|
|
|
Most of this material concerns her involvement in a protest of
unfair tax rates for single persons, a movement spearheaded by Vivien Kellems,
ca. 1971-1974. Numerous drafts of Swanson's speech before the House Ways and
Means Committee in 1972 are included in this subseries, as is her article for
Reader's Digest ("Unforgettable
Vivien Kellems") written upon Miss Kellems's death in 1974. |

Series V. Biographical/Personal Papers,
ca. [18--]-1983, 110 boxes |
|
This series consists of a large group of papers which are either of
a biographical or personal nature, ca. [18--]-1983. Among these are address
books, appointment books, childhood and family photographs, personal financial
records, photographs of friends, guest books, portraits and other personal
photographs, pet photographs and data, property records, and travel photographs
and papers. These subseries are arranged alphabetically as follows: Address
Books and Cards, Appointment Books and Calendars, Awards, Biographical,
Celebrations, Childhood, Family, Financial Records, Friends and Associates,
Guest Books, Health, Interviews, Memberships, Pets and Animals, Photographs,
Property, Sports and Exercise, Staff, Travel, and Miscellaneous. |
|
|
|
Subseries A. Address Books and Cards,
ca. 1947-1978, 6 boxes |
|
|
|
Consists of various address books, most of which are identified
either by date, location, or other designation. A number of these were
obviously created for use by Miss Swanson while traveling. Two of the address
books apparently belonged to husband William Dufty. |
|
|
|
The address cards, which were removed from a large rolodex, are an
especially good source of names and addresses, as well as for categories of
persons (agents, attorneys, doctors, etc.) or of goods and services used
(health foods, millinery, furs, etc.). |
|
|
|
Subseries B. Appointment Books and Calendars,
1943-1979, 9 boxes |
|
|
|
Miss Swanson's personal appointment books and calendars,
1943-1979, provide a substantially complete chronology of appointments and
events for this period. Items in this subseries are arranged chronologically.
For many years there are multiple books, some of which were undoubtedly created
and maintained by staff members. |
|
|
|
While Swanson and her staff often referred to these books as
"diaries," only occasionally are the personal thoughts and comments of Miss
Swanson recorded. They appear to have been used rather frequently in connection
with tax or legal documentation. |
|
|
|
The bound appointment books are arranged chronologically in the
boxes. Miscellaneous items which were folded and tucked within the pages of
these books have been removed and placed in folders in order to unfold,
preserve, and make them readily available for use by researchers. Included are
correspondence, notes, business cards, clippings, photographs, invitations,
itineraries, schedules, and receipts. These items are now annotated with
pencilled dates in brackets to indicate where they were located within the
books. Those not marked in this manner were found either at the front or back
of the book, or the item was already dated appropriately. |
|
|
|
Subseries C. Awards,
1925-[198-], 5 folders |
|
|
|
A small group of award certificates, correspondence, and
photographs of award ceremonies, ca. 1925-[198-]. |
|
|
|
Information regarding Miss Swanson's Academy Award nominations
(for
Sadie Thompson, The Trespasser, and
Sunset Boulevard) are located
elsewhere in this collection (see Series II., particularly the subseries
concerning United Artists, Paramount, Theater, and Miscellaneous Career
Related). |
|
|
|
Subseries D. Biographical,
1925-1983, 7 folders |
|
|
|
A small group of miscellaneous biographical articles, sketches,
reminiscences, and
Who's Who entries, ca. 1925-1983. |
|
|
|
Some of these biographies were obviously kept in multiple copies
to distribute for various purposes. Of special interest in this group is DeWitt
Bodeen's article on Gloria Swanson (which appeared in
Films in Review in 1965), complete
with Miss Swanson's annotations. |
|
|
|
Subseries E. Celebrations,
[192-]-1982, 1 box |
|
|
|
Primarily photographs of celebrations of birthdays, Christmas, and
other holidays, but also birthday lists and Christmas gift lists, ca.
[192-]-1982. |
|
|
|
The earliest item in this subseries is a Christmas card sent out
by "Gloria and Henry" (her then husband the Marquis Henri de la Falaise),
probably from the mid or late 1920s. Birthday celebrations date mostly from
Swanson's later years, ca. 1974-1982, especially that for her 75th birthday at
the Cinémathèque Française. |
|
|
|
Birthday and various holiday cards received by Miss Swanson will
be found in Series I., Correspondence, filed alphabetically under the name of
the sender. |
|
|
|
Subseries F. Childhood,
1899-1915, 3 boxes |
|
|
|
Consists of childhood writing samples, two school texts, a high
school graduation program, clippings, and post cards, but predominately
photographs which reveal the life of young "Glory" Swanson growing up in
Chicago, Key West, and Puerto Rico, 1899-1915. Materials are arranged by
format, then chronologically. |
|
|
|
Especially prominent among the photographs, which depict Swanson
from infancy to her teen years, are a large group of photographs taken during
the Swanson family tenure in Puerto Rico, ca. 1910-1911. These include pictures
of Swanson with childhood friends, schoolmates, and family in a variety of
activities and locales. |
|
|
|
A foreshadowing of her cinematic interests appears in her school
textbook
English Book Two (1911), in which she
has inscribed "Francis X. Bushman/My Favorite." |
|
|
|
Subseries G. Family,
[18--]-1982, 7 boxes |
|
|
|
Consists primarily of photographs (though there are some
clippings, a report card, a birth certificate, and childrens' art and school
work) of Swanson's ancestors, other family members, and descendants, ca.
[18--]-1982. Files are divided into these three categories, (ancestors, other
family members, and descendants) and divided alphabetically by name within
these groups. |
|
|
|
While there are a number of photographs of Swanson's parents
Joseph and Adelaide, only her maternal grandparents, the Klanowsky family, are
represented in the collection. Few other photographs of ancestors are included
here, most of them unidentified. |
|
|
|
The bulk of this subseries consists of photographs of Swanson's
children (Gloria Daly, Joseph Patrick Swanson, and Michelle Farmer Amon) and
their families. Insofar as possible, photographs are arranged in approximate
chronological order. A number of early photographs of the children were taken
by well known photographers, such as Maurice Goldberg, Russell Ball, John
Miehle, Marcus Blechman, John Engstead, and G. L. Manuel Frères. |
|
|
|
Subseries H. Financial Records,
1919-1983 (bulk 1950-1979), 44 boxes |
|
|
|
Includes all manner of personal financial data (accounts, accounts
payable, advances, bank statements, bills, cancelled checks, cash books, cash
receipts and disbursements, checkbooks, correspondence, disbursement vouchers,
expenses, income, insurance policies and correspondence, ledgers, loan papers,
payroll, petty cash, receipts, statements, tax returns and correspondence,
trial balances) for the period 1919-1983, the bulk of which dates from ca.
1950-1979. Materials are arranged chronologically by year (with insurance
policies filed by inception date, tax forms filed by tax year, tax
correspondence filed by chronological years). |
|
|
|
Although the amount of material varies from year to year, a wealth
of detail concerning most facets of Swanson's life is available in this
subseries. Records for the period 1950-1979 are particularly complete and
consistent, due to the methodical practices of staff members Gladys Griffth
(ca. 1950-1972) and Beatrice Siegel (ca. 1972-1979). Personal and business
finances had a tendency to overlap occasionally, and for that reason, business
financial records elsewhere in this collection (United Artists, Multiprises,
Inc., Gloria Swanson Enterprises, Inc., Swanson-Dufty Enterprises, Inc., etc.)
should also be consulted in order to obtain the fullest view of Swanson's
financial affairs. A special example of this tendency is illustrated by a
number of files dated ca. 1927-1928 which involve the production of
Sadie Thompson.
|
|
|
|
Financial information included generally tends to inform areas of
Swanson's life which are otherwise poorly documented elsewhere in the
collection. For example, files of bills included in 1919 and 1920 evidently
concern the Somborn honeymoon. Insurance policies and correspondence complement
other information within the collection concerning the purchase and ownership
of artwork, automobiles, furs, jewelry, and real estate. For later years,
information in this subseries regarding travel expenses often supplements the
Travel subseries. Information in income files and income tax files are
sometimes the only documentation of salary received for film, radio, theatre,
and television appearances. |
|
|
|
A number of income tax disputes, from the 1920s to the 1970s, are
evident in these papers. Correspondence concerning taxes often contains
references to multiple years, which may make it necessary to look through
several years' worth of tax correspondence to determine the final disposition.
Further information on taxes is also found in accountants' files in this
subseries. |
|
|
|
Information in Series I. Correspondence, supplies further
financial detail: see especially files for Equitable Investment Corporation
(1934-1942), Insurance (1950-1982), and correspondence with accountants (Ernest
du Belier, Noah Gallop & Company, David R. Shelton) and lawyers (R.
Lawrence Siegel). Series IV. Other Interests, also contains a subseries
concerning Swanson's protest of single tax rates during the 1970s. |
|
|
|
Subseries I. Friends and Associates,
nd, 3 boxes |
|
|
|
Consists of a number of photographs of close friends and famous
associates. Included here are photographs of all her husbands and a number of
persons who were important in her life. Though most of the photographs are
undated, they range from the 1910s through the 1980s. The photographs are
arranged in an alphabetical sequence. |
|
|
|
Many of the photographs were most likely used for publicity in
connection with a number of endeavors, though they could not be attributed to
particular activities with any degree of certainty. |
|
|
|
This subseries has been extensively indexed in order to provide
references to individuals in the photographs as well as access to work by noted
photographers. |
|
|
|
Subseries J. Guest Books,
ca. 1971-1983, 2 books |
|
|
|
Two guest books, one of which appears to have been for a specific,
unidentified occasion in 1977, the other which seems to have been used over a
range of years, ca. 1971-1983. |
|
|
|
Subseries K. Health,
ca. 1947-1949, 7 folders |
|
|
|
This subseries contains a limited amount of correspondence,
information on diets, medical literature, photographs, and recipes, concerning
Miss Swanson's personal health. |
|
|
|
Complementary information for later years is found in Series IV.
Health and Nutrition in her Personal files (folder 315.7). |
|
|
|
Subseries L. Interviews,
[194-]-1977, 2 folders |
|
|
|
A small group of transcripts of interviews, the most notable of
which are those conducted by Kevin Brownlow for his documentary series
Hollywood, and by Adela Rogers St.
Johns titled "The Love Story of Gloria and the Marquis." |
|
|
|
Most of these were probably separated at some point from
accompanying correspondence, which is possibly contained in Series I.
Correspondence. |
|
|
|
Subseries M. Memberships,
ca. 1928-1931, 1 folder |
|
|
|
A small group of correspondence and membership cards concerning
memberships in a variety of private organizations. |
|
|
|
Subseries N. Pets and Animals,
[192-]-1980, 6 folders |
|
|
|
This subseries contains mostly photographs of Miss Swanson's
various dogs and cats, but also correspondence, pedigrees, pet cemetery plot
deeds, and veterinary bills and records. |
|
|
|
Also included is an article written from the viewpoint of her
dachschund, Max, complete with photographs by Roloff Beny. Other photographers
represented in this subseries include Russell Ball and Jack Mitchell. |
|
|
|
Subseries O. Photographs,
1916-[198-], 6 boxes |
|
|
|
This subseries is comprised of photographs of Miss Swanson,
subdivided into formal portraits, miscellaneous photographs, and unidentified
photographs. Portraits and miscellaneous photographs are arranged in rough
chronological order insofar as possible. Unidentified photographs are divided
into categories of people, places, sculptures, and statutes. |
|
|
|
Many of the portraits were most likely used for publicity in
connection with a number of endeavors, though they could not be attributed to
particular activities with any degree of certainty. |
|
|
|
The work of a number of notable photographers, including Karl
Struss, Edward Steichen, Ernest A. Bachrach, Russell Ball, Marcus Blechman,
George Hurrell, Philippe Halsman, and Stig Svedfelt, is included in the
portraits. Names of identified photographers have been included in the
index. |
|
|
|
The Miscellaneous photographs are generally more candid shots of
Swanson and other people, with circumstances and persons unidentified. Also
included are nine folders of photographs of unidentified people, places and
things |
|
|
|
Subseries P. Property,
[191-]-1983, 15 boxes |
|
|
|
Consists of papers relating to the purchase and ownership of real
estate and personal properties, which have been arranged into the following
categories: Apartments, Homes and Real Estate (1925-1983), Automobiles
([191-]-1980), Furs (1950-1972), Jewelry (1934-1968), and Miscellaneous
(1930-1979). |
|
|
|
Formats among these papers include correspondence, clippings,
financial and legal documents, inventories, lists, appraisals, photographs,
post cards, blueprints, drawings, decorating samples, bills, receipts, product
brochures and warranties, leases, address books, business cards, insurance
records, automobile licenses, and registrations. |
|
|
|
Though information is included on Miss Swanson's homes in Beverly
Hills, CA, Croton-on-Hudson, NY, Colares, Portugal, and Palm Springs, CA, the
most complete records exist for her apartment at 920 Fifth Avenue, New York
City, which she maintained from 1941-1983. |
|
|
|
The only substantial documentation existing for personal vehicles
concerns two automobiles owned later in her life, a 1957 Rolls Royce and a 1970
Toyota Mark II. There are photographs of Miss Swanson in earlier vintage
automobiles, but no evidence in this subseries confirms or denies her ownership
of these cars. |
|
|
|
Correspondence on furs (1950-1972), and correspondence, lists,
photographs, and drawings of jewelry (1922-1968) amount to only six
folders. |
|
|
|
The Miscellaneous files include lists of old papers and valuables
kept in office safes (1972-1976) and safety deposit boxes (1930-1979). |
|
|
|
Information included in this subseries can be supplemented by that
found in the Financial Records subseries, especially for the Palm Springs, CA,
and Colares, Portugal, houses. Further details on automobiles, jewelry, and
furs exist in the insurance policy and correspondence files found in the
Financial Records subseries. Series VI. (After Death) includes auction catalogs
which may be helpful in determining the final disposition of a number of
personal items. |
|
|
|
Subseries Q. Sports and Exercise,
1920s-1980s, 7 folders |
|
|
|
Consists of a group of photographs of Miss Swanson engaged in
various athletic activities, subdivided into cycling (1980s), fishing
(1950s-1960s), golfing (1920s), horseback riding (1920s), tennis (1920s-1930s),
and yoga (1950s). |
|
|
|
Subseries R. Staff,
ca. 1945-1968, 1 box |
|
|
|
Correspondence, clippings, payroll forms, and information
concerning maids, chauffeurs and other "help," as well as dealings with
employment services. Also included is a file of Swanson's detailed instructions
for various staff members outlining her specific wishes for cleaning, cooking,
car care, and other staff duties. |
|
|
|
Subseries S. Travel,
1920s-1970s (bulk 1950s), 11 boxes |
|
|
|
Travel files are arranged chronologically by decade, and by format
within decades: bills, clippings, correspondence, customs bills, expenses,
miscellaneous (usually post cards, travel brochures, maps, programs of events,
etc.), passports, photographs, receipts, and schedules. These categories have
been identified where possible by country and/or specific dates. |
|
|
|
This subseries primarily documents foreign travel (Cuba, England,
France, Germany, Holland, Italy, Japan, Mexico, Monte Carlo, Portugal, Puerto
Rico, Russia, Spain, Sweden, and Switzerland) for both business and pleasure,
though some domestic travel is also represented. Numerous foreign language
materials are present. Materials from the 1950s are especially prevalent. |
|
|
|
Of special interest are Swanson's 1925 passport, identifying her
as the new Marquise de la Falaise returning to America from the filming of
Madame Sans-Gêne in France;
correspondence, memorabilia, and photographs relating to the command
performance of
Sunset Boulevard in England in 1950;
and correspondence and photographs of a celebrity tour on the Leonardo da Vinci
in 1962, organized by Earl Blackwell, and including Joan Fontaine, Paul Newman,
Hugh O'Brien, Gore Vidal, and Joanne Woodward among the travelers. Some
photographs of travel in Europe during 1955-1956 are undoubtedly related to her
United Press column of this period. |
|
|
|
Further documentation of travel expenses, especially for the
1970s, may be found in the Financial Records subseries. |
|
|
|
Correspondents included in this subseries are Robert Amon, Laura
Aponte, Frank H. Bartholomew, Henry G. Bieler, Earl Blackwell, Henri Coanda,
Emile Drain, Michael Farmer, Sir Lew Grade, Virginia Graham, Gino di Grandi,
Evelyn Laye, Luigi Luraschi, Arlette Marchal, Robert Morley, and Albert
Parker. |
|
|
|
Subseries T. Miscellaneous,
nd, 2 boxes |
|
|
|

document miscellaneous personal purchases. |
