Goldwater's correspondence is with academic colleagues, art museums, arts organizations, publishers, and former students. There is also scattered correspondence with artists and with family. Subjects include: requests to write book reviews and employment references, and to critique others' writings and provide research advice; Magazine of Art and Museum of Primitive Art business; awards and memberships; details about publishing texts by Goldwater and others; and congratulatory letters, comments, and questions about his writings. A small number of letters include comments about the personal lives of the correspondents, usually routine news of family and friends; a few letters are of a purely social nature. There are three letters addressed to Louise Bourgeois: two from Erick Hawkins and one from Ronnie Elliott.
Also found here are condolence letters received upon the deaths of Goldwater's mother and father in 1942 and 1958 respectively, and a small number of letters from his parents. Family letters include a few addressed to Clara A. Goldwater (Mrs. S. S. Goldwater).
Small amounts of additional correspondence can be found in Series 2: Subject Files and Series 3: Teaching Records.

United States of America -- Colorado -- El Paso County -- Colorado Springs
Scope and Contents:
The folder includes worksheets and a 1992 booklet on the history of the club.
General:
The El Paso Club is one of Colorado Springs' landmark buildings. Organized on October 23, 1877, the El Paso Club is believed to be one of the oldest active private town clubs west of Chicago. The building that the club now occupies was erected by Professor James H. Kerr of Colorado College as his home in 1883. The club purchased this residence in 1890 and has occupied the building ever since. Additions and renovations to the building were designed by architect Thomas MacLaren in 1909. The current gardens reflect work done by horticulturist Bridget O'Hara in 1991.
Persons associated with the property include: James H. Kerr (former owner, 1883-1890); Thomas MacLaren (architect, 1883); and Bridget O'Hara (horticulturist, 1991).
Related Materials:
