Hoerr oral history collection, 1914-2004.2.0 linear ft. (3 boxes)The John P. Hoerr Oral History Collection is a documentation of an investigation into the lives of three men: Harry J. Davenport, Tom Quinn, and Monsignor Charles Owen Rice. During the process of Hoerr's research, he exhausted various resources to obtain the information he desired, and this collection greatly reflects his research process. A large portion of the materials collected during his research relate to the period in American history known as the "Red Scare." Hoerr obtained a portion of his information through oral history interviews with either those men involved or men who had worked with them in passing. In an effort to relate the lives of the three listed men to that period in time, Hoerr's research includes a rather large section of materials related to the UE and the IUE and their questionable Communist involvement during that time. Through his efforts, Hoerr amassed a collection of oral history, newspaper clippings, and an assortment of research notes. The variety of the information in these documents is crucial to retelling the roles of Harry, Tom and Father Rice during the Cold War. Hoerr's research greatly reflects the nature of the time period in the way an individual's life was affected by the accusation of communism. University of PittsburghUnited States.

It documents the face of organized labor in the New York City metropolitan area: mainly its institutionalized forms and quotidian administrative activities, but it also captures its broader community, and occasionally its historic moments, such as the such as the 1955 merger convention of the AFL-CIO. Prominent among Reiss' clients, and particularly well-represented in the Collection are images he shot for the Amalgamated Clothing Workers of America; Transport Workers Union; the International Brotherhood of Electrical Workers-Local 3; United Federation of Teachers; and the Retail, Wholesale, Department Store Workers Union. The Collection also includes formal and informal portraits of local and national union leaders and personalities, including George Meany and Walter Reuther, Cesar Chavez, Michael Quill, Bessie Hillman, A. Philip Randolph, David Dubinsky, Eleanor Roosevelt, United Nations Secretary General U Thant, Martin Luther King Jr., Coretta Scott King, Senators John F. Kennedy, Hubert H. Humphrey, and Edward Kennedy, New York Representative Bella Abzug, New York City Mayor Fiorello LaGuardia, and Presidents Harry Truman, John Kennedy, and Lyndon Johnson.

(approx. 3,000 boxes)In 1975, the Archives of Industrial Society at the University of Pittsburgh was selected by the UE General Executive Board to be the national repository for the union's records. Since that time the UE national office, districts, and locals have donated their records to the Archives Service Center. This finding aid is meant to serve as a guide to the entire UE collection. Within the collection, records have been arranged into record groups, subgroups, and series to both make the collection more manageable and to properly reflect the original use of the documents. Many of the finding aids for these smaller groupings are being developed and placed online by the Archives Service Center. Included in this collection are correspondence from national officers and staff, organizers, and locals; publications created by the national union and shop papers created by locals; and research material such as clippings, publications, and reports regarding companies, communism, and other labor issues. Also present are photographs documenting UE events and members from the union's founding to the present, as well as cartoons and films addressing several important topics within the labor movement.
