Henry Dart Greene Papers 1914-1993

The Henry Dart Greene Papers contains photographs, motion picture films and a limited amount of personal and business papers. The photographs date from 1914 to the late 1960s, and are a mix of personal and professional subjects. Greene's years at the University of California, Berkeley and photographs of his wife Ruth Haight Greene's childhood in Sacramento are the earliest photographs in the collection. The collection includes photographs from Argentina, where Greene worked with the Argentine Fruit Distributors from 1928 to 1931 and from his public relations work with the American Fruit and Produce Auction Association (AFPAA) from 1933 to 1941. Photographs from Greene's other professional careers are also included. The collection contains fifty-two 16 mm films dating from the 1930s to the 1960s which include two films made for the Feather River Project Association. While Greene's personal and business papers are not a significant portion of the collection there is a substantive collection of personal letters from Greene and his wife to their family members between 1928 and 1935. Henry Dart Greene passed away in 1978.
