TitleSean O'Casey
DescriptionIncludes 11 letters from playwright Sean O'Casey and about 31 letters from Eileen O'Casey, with copies of outgoing letters of Dorothy and Leonard Elmhirst. Letters in 1936 discuss a failed effort to tempt Sean O'Casey into a collaboration with Michael Chekhov at the Chekhov Theatre Studio during 1937. An important letter from O'Casey (28 Dec 1936) details the reasons for his refusal. Letters from both of the O'Casey's in 1950 remember George Bernard Shaw.
