Papers, 1849-1966; (bulk 1920-1940).

The Hilaire Hiler papers consist of photographs, clippings, and correspondence of Hilaire Hiler and his family. A sketch book of water color paintings by him is of special interest; also drawings and caricatures by Meyer Hiler, Hilaire's father. Included are photographs of some of Hilaire Hiler's paintings as far back as the late 1920s before his family changed their name. News clippings and some color reproductions are represented. Family history and travels throughout Europe are but few of the vaired experiences that are documented in Hiler's collection. The collection is in no specific order and reflects Hiler's travels, and his celebrity friends in the arts and entertainment world. The collection is difficult to put into context unless biographical resources are consulted.

1 box (.45 cu. ft.) + 1 oversize folder.
