Alvin Johnson letters to Dannie Heineman, 1951-1961.

http://www.worldcat.org/oclc/712650482

The collection consists of handwritten and typed letters from Dr. Alvin Johnson, President Emeritus of the New School for Social Research, to philanthropist Dannie N. Heineman and carbon copies of some of Heineman's replies. Johnson correspondence to Heineman includes fundraising appeals interspersed with reminiscences about their long friendship, updates on Johnson's writing endeavors, and expressions of the grief experienced upon Johnson's daughter Dorothy's death from cancer. Although it largely concerns financial matters, the correspondence is warm in tone and chronicles a number of Johnson's activities outside of his role at the New School.
