520 2 $aThe Muehsam Family collection consists of materials that reflect the life and work of art historian and archeologist Alice Muehsam (1889-1968), her husband, journalist and film critic Kurt Muehsam (1882-1931), and their children: actress and writer Ruth Marton (1912-1999), librarian and art cataloguer Gerd Muehsam (1913-1979), and statistician Helmut Muhsam (1914-1997). In particular, the correspondence of Ruth Marton offers a remarkable glimpse into the life of the German community in Hollywood before and during the Second World War. The post-war correspondence and many of the newspaper clippings collected by Ruth Marton map further artistic careers of many of Ruth Marton’s friends from the world of writing or acting. The collection contains personal documents, correspondence, newspaper clippings, images, audiotapes and some records.
