Biographical History

The Fisher Family Papers represent four members of the Fisher family, most notably, physician and Harlem Renaissance author, Rudolph Fisher (1897-1934). Fisher is best known for his novels: "The Walls of Jericho," 1928, and "The Conjure-Man Dies: A Mystery Tale of Dark Harlem," 1932. The other family members are his sister, Pearl, a teacher educated at the College Preparatory School in Falls River, Massachusetts, who taught in Manhattan and Baltimore; their father John, a minister in Providence, Rhode Island; and their brother, Joseph.
