Series 6: Submissions, approximately 1930-1986

 Series

  • Staff Only

Scope and Contents note

Poems, essays, plays, and stories, solicited and unsolicited, by writers other than Conroy. Some works were submitted specifically for publication in one of the little magazines or anthologies edited by Conroy, such as the New Anvil, Rebel Poet, and Unrest. Others appear to be works given to Jack from his friends and colleagues for his informal review, or entertainment. Some of the poems and shorter pieces may have been collected by Conroy himself. Included are works by James F. Light (writing about Nathanael West) and Neal Rowland.
