Brooke Hayward papers, 1911-1977.

The Brooke Hayward papers cover two major areas: Hayward's writing of the book, Haywire, and the personal and professional life of Hayward's mother, Margaret Sullavan. The Haywire material consists of correspondence, edited draft manuscripts, transcripts of taped interviews, and galley proofs. The audiotapes of the interviews have been transferred to the Rodgers & Hammerstein Archives of Recorded Sound. The Sullavan material includes correspondence, photographs, and clippings removed for preservation purposes from the scrapbooks that Sullavan herself meticulously created. Any identification that came with the photographs has been retained wherever possible. This scrapbook material has been divided into Sullavan's theatre work, motion picture work, and home and personal life.
