Correspondence of Albert Gross, 1927-1946
This series contains business correspondence addressed to Gross during his tenure at the Liveright and Coward-McCann publishing firms. Most of the correspondence is related to his work in publishing; however, some letters discuss personal subjects. Included in the series is correspondence from Sholem Asch; Gertrude Atherton; Maxwell Bodenheim; Theodore Dreiser; Gene Fowler; Robinson Jeffers; Howard Liveright; Kathleen Millay; George Moore; Sean O'Casey; Eugene O'Neill; Elliot Paul; Willem Hendrik Van Loon; and Art Young. The correspondence from George Moore is addressed to Howard Liveright, and Sean O'Casey's letters are addressed to Richard Madden. Liveright and Madden presumably forwarded these letters to Gross. All other correspondence is addressed directly to Gross. One file contains letters from unidentified correspondents, arranged chronologically. The series is arranged alphabetically by correspondent.
