Papers of Orville F. Grahame, 1931-1971.

http://www.worldcat.org/oclc/233115776

The papers of Orville F. Grahame are comprised of correspondence, subject files, articles, speeches, and other materials particularly as they relate to the field of insurance. Grahame's work for the Republican Party is also documented. Although arranged in two series (Politics and Insurance), correspondence is found throughout the entire collection. Some of the correspondents include: Bailey Aldrich, Thomas E. Dewey, Guy M. Gillette, Christian Herter, Edward M. Kennedy, Thomas E. Martin, Elliot Richardson, and John Volse. Series one, Politics, contains files relating to Grahame's work with the New York Young Republicans. He also campaigned for specific candidates including Thomas E. Dewey and Elliot Richardson. Much of this series concerns politics within the state of Massachusetts. Series two, Insurance, makes up the bulk of the papers. The Health Insurance Association of America alone is the subject of eleven boxes. Materials from its legislative committee includes reports, minutes, and correspondence. Much of this series is devoted to insurance issues and concerns within Massachusetts. However, on a broader scale there are files on annuities, settlement options, the Security Exchange Commission, and White House Conferences on Aging.
