Biographical Sketch
Harry Sinclair Lewis was born in Sauk Centre, Minnesota, in 1885. His
mother died shortly after he turned six, leaving his father to raise him and
his two older brothers. A local doctor, the boy's father valued hard work above
all other virtues and frequently chided Sinclair, who had decided at an early
age that he wanted to be a writer, for mooning
around.
Lewis entered Yale in 1903 and wrote for several school publications. He
studied hard, but also sought adventure, spending one summer vacation sailing
to Liverpool on a cattle boat. Graduating from Yale in 1908, Lewis took a job
with an Iowa newspaper but after ten weeks moved to New York. A few months
later he drifted west to San Francisco and a year later drifted back to New
York, via Washington D.C. Once he discovered that he could support himself by
writing short stories, he had time to hone his writing skills and work on his
novels as well as travel. Between 1915 and 1930 he visited 40 states in America
as well as Canada, Mexico, fourteen countries in Europe and three in South
America.
He met Grace Hegger in 1912, in New York, and married her two years
later. Their son, Wells, was born in 1917. Strained by Lewis's inability to
settle down, as well as his increasing fame, the marriage ended in 1928. Grace
wrote about her life with Lewis in her 1931 novel
Half a Loaf and her 1951 autobiography
With Love from Gracie.
Lewis quickly re-married, this time to the journalist Dorothy Thompson.
Their son, Michael, was born in 1930. Afflicted by the same difficulties as his
marriage to Grace, Lewis's second marriage ended in 1942. He divided the rest
of the 1940s between Duluth, Minnesota, and a second home in Massachusetts.
1950 found him traveling in Europe. He died in January 1951, while visiting
Italy, after suffering heart trouble.
Scope and Contents
Correspondence makes up the bulk of the Sinclair Lewis Family Papers,
1909-1962, and typescripts of novels and biographies round out the collection.
The papers are organized into four series with materials arranged
alphabetically and chronologically where possible: Series I. Sinclair Lewis,
1909-1960 (3.5 boxes); Series II. Grace Hegger Lewis, 1914-1968 (6.5 boxes);
Series III. Wells Lewis, 1921-1944 (2 boxes); and Series IV. Works and
Correspondence by other Authors, 1925-1962 (2 boxes). With the exception of
letters written by Grace and Wells Lewis, the correspondence and all of the
literary works in this collection are listed in the Index of Correspondence and
Index of Works by other Authors found at the end of this finding aid. This
collection was previously accessible through a card catalog, but has been
re-cataloged as part of a retrospective conversion project.
The Sinclair Lewis Series is organized into three subseries: Subseries
A. Works, 1920-1960 (2 boxes); Subseries B. Outgoing Correspondence, 1909-1949
(1 box); and Subseries C. Incoming Correspondence, 1920-1944 (.5 box). The
Works subseries is made up of three major publications, two lesser known plays,
and a few individual short stories and poems by Lewis. Of particular note is a
typescript draft of
Main Street (1920) which contains extensive
editing, deletions and insertions by the author. A typescript of
Arrowsmith (1925) provides almost as many
examples of Lewis's editorial methods.
The Outgoing Correspondence Subseries contains the drafts and final copy
of the 1926 letter Lewis wrote to the Pulitzer Prize Committee refusing the
award as well as letters to his first wife Grace Hegger Lewis, their son Wells
Lewis, and the lawyers who handled their divorce, Ernst, Fox & Caine. The
Incoming Correspondence Subseries holds letters Lewis received from his wife
and lawyers as well as other, largely personal, letters from friends and
associates.
The Grace Hegger Lewis Series is divided into three subseries: Subseries
A. Works, 1951, nd (2.5 boxes); Subseries B. Outgoing Correspondence, 1920-1960
(2.5 boxes); and Subseries C. Incoming Correspondence, 1914-1968 (1.5 boxes).
The Works Subseries includes multiple typescript versions of two biographical
works about Sinclair Lewis,
Half a Loaf (1931) and
With Love from Gracie (1955). Each draft is
moderately to heavily edited. Also present in this section is a memory book
created by Grace Lewis containing letters, poems, and sketches given to her by
Sinclair Lewis early in their relationship.
The Outgoing and Incoming Correspondence Subseries include an in-depth
collection of letters Grace wrote to her son Wells, as well as to her mother
and Stella Wood, in addition to letters she received from Dorothy Thompson,
Sinclair Lewis's second wife, and others. Additionally, there are a number of
letters from friends and acquaintances congratulating her on the publication of
each of her books.
The Wells Lewis Series is organized in three subseries: Subseries A.
Works, 1924-1939 (1 box); Subseries B. Outgoing Correspondence, 1921-1944 (.5
box); and Subseries C. Incoming Correspondence, 1934-1944 (.5 box). The Works
Subseries contains papers he wrote while attending Harvard and Phillips Academy
in addition to a few short stories and poems. The Outgoing and Incoming
Correspondence Subseries are composed mostly of correspondence to his mother
and grandmother and letters from Dorothy Thompson, a few friends, and
others.
The small Works and Correspondence by other Authors Series is divided
into two sections: Works and Correspondence. The Works section contains two
biographical works about Sinclair Lewis,
A Man from Main Street and
Sinclair Lewis; An American Life, as well as
a typescript of the
Elmer Gantry screen play. The Correspondence
section contains a few letters written by friends and associates of the Lewis
family, generally concerning one or other of the Lewises.
Elsewhere in the Ransom Center are about 250 photographs of Lewis, his
family, and friends, some of which are found in seven photo albums, located in
the Literary Files of the Photography Collection, as well as 37 Vertical Files
for Sinclair Lewis and two for Grace Lewis containing newspaper clippings with
biographical information and literary criticism in addition to published
articles by both Sinclair and Grace. Also present are a few personal items
belonging to the Lewis family, including a small lacquer bowl and military
medals awarded to Wells Lewis as well as a small collection of books from
Sinclair Lewis's personal library.
