Biographical History

New York Enthusiasts is a club in New York City formed for the purpose of meeting the educational needs of adults and furthering knowledge of the city through lectures and industrial and art shows.

From the guide to the New York Enthusiasts records, 1938-1984, 1945-1984, (The New York Public Library. Manuscripts and Archives Division.)

The New York Enthusiasts was an organization active during the Post-World War Two period, made up of persons who, in the words of the club's newsletter, "like New York, want to learn more about New York, and want to do this in the company of people with similar desires and interests." At its peak the club had several hundred members, and its newsletter ZIG ZAG was mailed out to some 2,000 subscribers. ZIG ZAG was published from July 1946 until May 1963. During that time, the Enthusiasts attended many stage productions in the city and the greater New York area, especially smaller-scale Off-Broadway plays.
