Hale Woodruff Collection. 1973-1977

http://www.worldcat.org/oclc/51865468

This small collection about Hale Woodruff consists primarily of materials accumulated by Winifred Stoelting in doing research for her dissertation, "Hale Woodruff, Artist and Teacher: Through the Atlanta Years" (Emory University, 1978). Upon completion of the dissertation, Stoelting donated her research materials to the Woodruff Library at Atlanta University Center. These materials consist of audiocassette tapes of interviews with Woodruff's students and colleagues, correspondence from Woodruff and others, and slides of his work. Among these are photocopies of letters from Hale Woodruff to Millicent Dobbs Jordan in reference to a commissioned work, "Cinque Exhorts his Captives". The collection also includes copies of brochures for the mural "The Art of the Negro", and programs from In Memory of Hale Aspacio Woodruff (1900-1980) and the accompanying exhibit "Homage to Hale Woodruff", held at Atlanta University in 1981.
