Ernest Hemingway was a red-blooded man of letters, and one of the 20th
century's most celebrated and demonized writers. In 1968, Mary Hemingway
arranged to have his papers donated to the Kennedy Library. Over the past
several decades, materials related to Hemingway's long career have continued
to become part of this very extensive collection. The Kennedy Library has
created this specific page to provide both researchers and members of the
general public with some basic information about their holdings, along with
offering access to a selection of these papers. Visitors can start by
clicking over to the "Online Resources" area, which includes essays on
Hemingway by various scholars and a nice piece by Megan F. Desnoyers on how
the collection came to the Kennedy Library. Moving on, the photograph
galleries are a real treat, as they cover everything from Hemingway's youth
in Oak Park all the way up to his last days in Idaho. [KMG]
