Gwynne Forster Papers
Collection
Identifier: MS-0195
Collection Organization
The Gwynne Forster Papers are comprised of approximately 15 cubic feet of personal papers, manuscripts, and promotional materials. The collection dates from approximately 1951 - 2013.
This collection of papers shows the full sweep of Gwynne Forster's career, including early rejection letters, handwritten notes and manuscripts, efforts at self-promotion, communications with publishers and editors, and more. An extensive collection of fan mail shows the strong connection between authors and their readers.
Researchers will find much to study in Gwynne Forster's work. Forster had already been an academic, a public servant, and a world traveler before taking on the world of romance writing, quickly becoming one of the genre's pioneering Black writers.
Several folders in the collection are marked as RESTRICTED in the inventory, primarily due to the presence of personally identifiable information. These folders may be available for research after consultation with the archivist.
Materials are organized into three broad series- Correspondence, Process, and Manuscripts. Correspondence includes communications with and from publishers, the media, and fans. Process documents the craft of writing as well as promotion. The Manuscripts include fiction and non-fiction writing, in both edited and unedited forms, as well as notebooks related to most of Forster's works.
