Abstract
This collection contains personal and professional papers created and received by Lanford Wilson throughout his life and career as a playwright. The vast majority of the collection consists of manuscripts in various forms but especially in the form of plays. In addition to his works there is also a sizeable series of plays sent to Wilson by his colleagues and friends. There are also files of reviews and promotional clippings for productions of his plays. Correspondence received by and created by Wilson dating from the early 1960s until his death in 2011 also form part of this collection, as do photographs of both a professional and family nature. In addition, the collection contains early family materials from his childhood and records of his personal interests such as gardening and art collecting.
