Agnes Mongan was born on January 21, 1905 in Somerville, Massachusetts.

From 1927-1928 she studied Italian art in Florence through the Smith College Year Abroad Program, and received her A.M. from Smith in 1929. In 1928 she began working at the Fogg Art Museum as a special student. From 1929-1937 she worked as a research assistant for Paul J. Sachs, creating a catalogue of his collection of drawings. From 1937-1947, her title was Keeper of Drawings, and in 1947 she became Curator of Drawings. She was the first female curator at the Fogg, and kept the title through her retirement in 1975. From 1951-1964 she was also the Assistant Director of the Fogg, from 1964-1968 Associate Director, from 1968-1969 Acting Director, and from 1969-1971 Director. She was the first woman to direct a major art museum in the United States. From 1960-1975 she also held the title of Martin A. Ryeson Lecturer on the Fine Arts. After she retired from the position of Director in 1971, she was Director Emerita and consultant until her official retirement in 1975. Her career also included stints as Acting Director of the Timken Gallery in Balboa Park, San Diego, California, and visiting professor for various institutions, including the University of Texas at Austin.

Myron Bement Smith collection, circa 1910-1970
Title:
Myron Bement Smith collection
The Myron Bement Smith collection consists of two parts, the papers of Myron Bement Smith and his wife Katharine and the Islamic Archives. It contains substantial material about his field research in Italy in the 1920s and his years working on Islamic architecture in Iran in the 1930s. Letters describe the milieu in which he operated in Rochester NY and New York City in the 1920s and early 1930s; the Smiths' life in Iran from 1933 to 1937; and the extensive network of academic and social contacts that Myron and Katharine developed and maintained over his lifetime. The Islamic Archives was a project to which Smith devoted most of his professional life. It includes both original materials, such as his photographs and notes, and items acquired by him from other scholars or experts on Islamic art and architecture. Smith intended the Archives to serve as a resource for scholars interested in the architecture and art of the entire Islamic world although he also included some materials about non-Islamic architecture.

Papers, 1914-1993 (inclusive).
The collection consists of correspondence, photographs, writings on Jean-August-Dominique Ingres and French drawings, travel material, financial and health-related records, college course notes, teaching material, clippings, and material collected by Agnes Mongan. The correspondence is divided into two subseries. Subseries A, 1927-1948, 1976-1978, is arranged with alphabetical order within chronological groupings. It includes correspondence with family members, especially her siblings, colleagues at the Fogg Art Museum, including Paul J. Sachs, and colleagues at other institutions and within the art world. The subseries also contains correspondence with organization and institutions with which Mongan was associated. Topics include her work at the Fogg Art Museum and interactions with other art institutions, social life in Cambridge, Massachusetts and Europe, her brother John's service in World War II, and her frequent travels. For the most part the correspondence consists of letters sent to Agnes. Subseries B, 1914-1992, is arranged in chronological order, and consists of correspondence with family, friends, and colleagues, especially Elizabeth Mongan. It includes a letter from Eddie Warburg regarding his purchase of a Picasso; letters from and to Agnes Mongan's family when she was a student in Florence in 1927-1928 and during a 1967 trip to Asia; and letters from colleagues regarding the 1967 publication of her catalogue on Ingres.
