Romano L. Mazzoli papers, 1920s-2010.

http://www.worldcat.org/oclc/762815790

This collection documents Romano (Ron) Mazzoli's personal life as well as his political career. The collection dates primarily from the mid-1960s through the mid-1990s, when Congressman Mazzoli was in (or seeking) office, although there is earlier material that documents his childhood and family life. Types of materials range from correspondence to campaign material, from records relating to his service on congressional committees to his work on behalf of individual constituents, and include photographs and audio-visual materials. The largest subset of materials consists of records of his legislative work; there is a substantial amount of information documenting his committee work as well, including his work on immigration reform. There are also files on various issues, subjects and projects of both national and local concern, such as abortion, school busing, the Equal Rights Amendment, tobacco, and Watergate. Local projects and concerns include Naval Ordnance Station in Louisville, the development of the Louisville Waterfront, Kosmosdale, and the expansion of Standiford Field. In addition, the collection contains case files chronicling the assistance that Congressman Mazzoli and his staff gave to constituents encountering problems with the federal bureaucracy; these files, along with those of nominees to the service academies, are restricted due to the personal nature of this information. The Congressman's papers include a substantial amount of correspondence, including invitations and responses, notes, and personal correspondence, in addition to schedules, calendars, itineraries, guestbooks, articles, speeches, transcripts and campaign materials and records. The papers also contain newsclippings, photographs, audio and video (including his own "In Congress with Ron Mazzoli") that chronicle his political career and personal life. Finally, there is a small but significant set of materials that document his early life and childhood, as well as his parents' lives.
