Description
-
Correspondence between Walter F. Anderson and Rosenwald Fund staff, including Dorothy A. Elvidge and Hilde Reitze. This file documents the complete fellowship process for Walter F. Anderson, beginning with the Fund suggesting he apply and his subsequent explanation for a delay in his application. His formal application documents, including a portrait, are supported by numerous confidential reports from recommenders such as Herbert Elwell, Frank H. Shaw, W.B. Alexander, and Dr. Leonard H. Mayo. After being notified of his award via telegram, Anderson expressed his elation and formally accepted the 2,400 dollar grant to establish his project at Antioch College, beginning June 1, 1948. The file contains records of the grant's administration, including a letter from Dorothy A. Elvidge enclosing a $600 check for three months of work, and also shows his professional activity, such as mailing a piano score to Miss Hilde Reitze.
