Gino Speranza papers, 1887-1935, bulk (1905-1925).

Papers document Speranza's career as an attorney involved with the problems and working conditions of Italians in the United States and his subsequent work as a journalist and author whose writings included works on immigration, Italo-American relations and World War I. Papers include correspondence, writings, legal papers, research materials, financial papers, diaries, scrapbooks, and printed matter. Also included are papers relating to several organizations with which Speranza was involved and a small series of Florence Colgate Speranza's papers, including her correspondence as a trustee of Barnard College (1899-1912). Most organizational papers are those relating to the Society for the Protection of Italian Immigrants. Speranza's investigations of working conditions of Italian immigrants in the South are of particular interest. Among Speranza's correspondents were: Talcott Miner Banks, B.H. Carroll, John Jay Chapman, William B. Howland, Raybaudi Massiglia, Thomas Nelson Page, Norval Richardson, Adolfo Rossi, Carlo L. Speranza (his father) and Robert M. Yerkes.
