Title: Audrey Wood Papers, 1863-1984 (bulk 1900-1984).

Correspondence, photographs, business and financial records, playscripts, appointment books, clippings, awards, theatrical memorabilia, and scrapbooks document the personal life and professional activities of literary representative Audrey Wood, her husband and business partner, William Liebling, and their clients. The papers consist of personal files from Audrey Wood and William Liebling's New York and Connecticut residences, business files from the Liebling-Wood office dating 1937-1954, and files created during her employment from 1954 onwards at the Music Corporation of America (MCA), and its successor organizations. The earliest material, dating from the mid 1800s, consists of photographs and personal correspondence and records of Wood's family. Wood's relationship with Tennessee Williams is well documented in the Client Files Series with correspondence, manuscript fragments, contracts, and box office statements for many of his productions, including The Glass Menagerie, A Streetcar Named Desire, and Cat on a Hot Tin Roof. Other clients with significant materials in this series include Martha Gellhorn, Dorothy Heyward, and William Inge. Woods' husband, William Liebling, also a well known agent, represented actors and directors. Records relating to his clients are found in the Client Files Series and in the Liebling-Wood Agency files in the Subject Files Series. His personal records and correspondence, including a large amount of correspondence with U.S. Senator Jacob Javits, are filed under Liebling in the Subject Files.

Sonnenberg, Ben. Ben Sonnenberg papers, 1956-2001.

Title: Ben Sonnenberg papers, 1956-2001.

The majority of the collection consists of personal and professional correspondence between Ben Sonnenberg, Jr., Grand Street contributors, and other writers associated with the New York literary scene. The correspondence is primarily literary in scope, with writers often responding to criticism of manuscripts and works in progress, as well as providing "updates" on work and home life. In addition to letters from contributors, the series includes letters from other editors-some amicable, others less so-which provide an incisive portrait of the New York literary culture in the mid-1990s. Also included in the collection are administrative and financial records from Grand Street magazine, manuscripts of Sonnenberg's own work, and a small amount of family and personal correspondence. Overall, the material is in excellent condition, with the exception of newspaper clippings and magazine articles, many of which are acidic and have been either separated or photocopied to preserve their integrity.
