Scope and Content Note

The papers of Daniel Joseph Boorstin (1914-2004) span the years 1882-1995, with the majority of the papers concentrated in the period 1944-1994. The collection is comprehensive and chronicles Boorstin's career as an author, educator, and an administrator of two of the nation's most prestigious institutions, the Smithsonian Institution and the Library of Congress. The papers consist of seven series: Family Papers, University of Chicago and Smithsonian Institution File, Library of Congress File, Speech File, Writings File, Miscellany, and Oversize.

The Family Papers, 1891-1995, consist primarily of correspondence and other papers relating to Boorstin, his wife, Ruth Frankel Boorstin, and his three children, David, Jonathan, and Paul. The majority of the letters document the personal activities of the family. Boorstin's early letters in the 1950s and 1960s to his wife and to his father, Samuel Boorstin, are particularly insightful, describing his experiences while teaching and lecturing in Europe and Asia. Correspondence and papers pertaining to Ruth Boorstin are interfiled throughout the collection, since she was closely involved in her husband's professional activities and served as editor and sometimes as coauthor of his publications.

Papers in the University of Chicago and Smithsonian Institution File, 1944-1975, illustrate Boorstin's diverse interests and activities. This series is divided into two subseries: Calendars and Subject File. The Calendars, 1958-1975, provide a glimpse of Boorstin's schedule while a professor of history at the University of Chicago, 1944-1969, and as director and senior historian at the National Museum of History and Technology of the Smithsonian Institution, 1969-1975. Since Boorstin became Librarian of Congress in November 1975, his 1975 calendar also includes entries for his first two months as librarian. Some calendars also contain brief notes and notations of telephone numbers and addresses.

Arranged by Boorstin's staff, the Subject File subseries, 1944-1975, includes an extensive array of papers such as correspondence, reports, course material, minutes of meetings, and notes. This subseries documents his teaching and research interests, especially in American culture; his activities as a visiting lecturer and consultant; his duties as an administrator at the Smithsonian; and his membership and affiliation with various organizations and associations. The subseries contains a significant amount of correspondence reflecting Boorstin's friendship and acquaintance with prominent scholars and individuals such as Jacques Barzun, Edward L. Bernays, Henry Steele Commager, Marcus Cunliffe, Maurice English, Abe Fortas, John Hope Franklin, Oscar Handlin, Richard Hofstadter, Hubert H. Humphrey, Henry Kissinger, Dumas Malone, Arthur M. Schlesinger (1917-2007), and C. Vann Woodward. Many of the correspondents and organizations in the Subject File also appear in other series of the collection, such as the Library of Congress Subject File and the Writings File. Also overlapping are subject files pertaining to Boorstin's visiting lectures and papers in the Speech File. The Subject File subseries contains little material prior to 1954.

Also documented in the University of Chicago and Smithsonian Subject File is Boorstin's appearance in 1953 before the House of Representatives' Committee on Un-American Activities. Boorstin had joined the Communist party briefly from 1938-1939 while at Harvard. He described his membership as an error of youth. His testimony before the committee was not looked upon favorably by all liberals and was not forgotten when Boorstin criticized the protests of student militants in the 1960s, particularly in his article "The New Barbarians" ( Esquire, October 1968). His affiliation with the Communist party was brought up again during his nomination for Librarian of Congress.

Comprising almost one third of the collection is the Library of Congress File, 1950-1995. This series consists of three subseries: Calendars and Schedules, Correspondence, and Subject File. The Calendars and Schedules subseries, 1976-1995, provides a record of Boorstin's professional and personal activities while Librarian of Congress and Librarian of Congress Emeritus. The Correspondence subseries, 1976-1994, contains a wide variety of professional and personal correspondence. The fan mail and general correspondence include both incoming and outgoing letters, while the official correspondence consists only of carbons of outgoing letters. The Manuscript Division received only the official correspondence for 1977-1978. An index of correspondents represented in the official correspondence is filed with the letters. The majority of fan mail relating to Boorstin's speeches, articles, books, and other writings is filed with the relevant presentation or writing.

The Subject File, 1950-1995, is the largest subseries in the Library of Congress File. As librarian, Boorstin promoted the Library as a public institution and strived to stimulate the public's interest in reading. The papers document his many public appearances and press interviews and his establishment of the Center for the Book at the Library. The Center utilized the institution's prestige and resources to increase public interest in reading and led to the CBS television network public service spots entitled "Read More About It." Files relating to social activities and events hosted by Boorstin and his wife further chronicle his active public profile while librarian. Other subjects prominently featured in the Subject File are his nomination for Librarian of Congress and his work with various organizations and committees such as the Colonial Williamsburg Foundation, the Japan-United States Friendship Commission, the National Aeronautics and Space Administration, the National Endowment for the Humanities, the Morris and Gwendolyn Cafritz Foundation, and the Smithsonian Institution. Among the more significant and frequent correspondents in this subseries are Howard H. Baker, Silvio A. Bedini, Edward L. Bernays, Warren E. Burger, Maurice English, Helen Hayes, Henry Kissinger, Louis L'Amour, Peter C. Marzio, Edmund Morris, Daniel P. Moynihan, Lewis F. Powell, David A. Riesman, Ronald Reagan, Arthur M. Schlesinger (1917-2007), Barbara Wertheim Tuchman, and Herman Wouk.

Papers in the Speech File, 1943-1995, include a wide range of material such as correspondence, notes, outlines, and drafts and final copies of texts. This series chronicles Boorstin's speaking activities from his early years at the University of Chicago through his position as librarian emeritus. Requests for permission to quote or publish from the speeches are filed with speech texts. Items filed in the "Permissions" folder concern multiple permission requests and those that could not be attributed to a specific speech. There is some overlap between this series and the Writings File because many of Boorstin's speeches were published as articles or were incorporated into books.

Comprising almost half of the collection, the Writings File, 1882-1995, documents Boorstin's contributions as an historian of American culture. The papers reflect his productivity in numerous publications, including articles, books, book reviews, editorial projects, and forewords and introductions. Some of his most voluminous papers relate to his award winning three-volume trilogy, The Americans, and the discussion it generated. Boorstin's Americans stressed the everyday aspects of American life, such as cattle drives, folklore, merchandising, and advertising, rather than the standard themes of politics and war. This approach brought criticism from many historians who felt that Boorstin paid little attention to divisive elements, such as the Civil War and the Vietnam War, and was too selective in choosing topics to fit his theses. Others criticized him for being nationalistic, conservative, and unabashed in his enthusiasm for early America. Boorstin continued to write on topics that interested him, and in the 1960s wrote a sharp attack on the mass media and some aspects of popular culture in The Image or, What Happened to the American Dream. The papers also document Boorstin's broadening interest in world history in the 1980s and 1990s with his books The Creators and The Discoverers.

Boorstin's longer works, in particular The Americans, The Creators, and The Discoverers, reflect his vast use of notes, background material, and detailed outlines. Most outlines and notes of books are filed separately from drafts. An exception is The Image, which contains notes and outlines filed with its early drafts. Papers pertaining to Boorstin's books also include complete and partial unpublished manuscripts and beginning ideas and outlines. One unpublished manuscript, "Two From Tulsa: A Tale of Two Cities," was apparently a joint venture between Boorstin and historian John Hope Franklin and includes drafts of both men chronicling their early life.

Also featured in the Writings File are various editorial projects and Boorstin's association with magazines and publishers. Editorial projects range from individual volumes, such as An American Primer and American Civilization, to the multi-volume Chicago History of American Civilization series. The magazine and publisher files document the demand for Boorstin as an author and consultant. Correspondence and papers relating to his writings are filed with individual works, although there is some overlap between these materials and the magazine and publisher files. Also included in the writings series is autobiographical research material relating to the Leo Frank case in Atlanta, Georgia, in 1913. Boorstin's father was one of the attorneys who defended Frank, a Jew convicted of murdering a fourteen-year-old girl and later lynched. The anti-Semitism exhibited in Georgia after the case was a central factor in the Boorstins' move in 1916 to Tulsa, Oklahoma.

Items filed in the "Permissions" folder in the Writings File concern multiple requests and those requests that could not be identified as belonging to a specific work. Requests for permission to quote or publish from a particular writing by Boorstin are filed with that writing. Papers filed in the "Foreign translations" folder pertain only to multiple requests, general requests for information, and unidentified works; foreign translation information about specific works are filed with that publication. Royalty statements are filed in the "Royalty statements" folders or with individual publishers in the magazine and publisher files.

The final series, Miscellany, 1920-1993, consists chiefly of academic files, biographical information, and scrapbooks. The academic file chronicles Boorstin's accomplishments as a student and includes examinations and papers from his high school and college years, notably his Bowdoin Prize essay on Edward Gibbon's The History of the Decline and Fall of the Roman Empire and correspondence between Boorstin and distinguished Harvard professor, F. O. Matthiessen, while Boorstin was a student at Balliol College. The scrapbooks were compiled by Ruth Boorstin, although a few of the early ones were maintained by his father.
