File — Box: 1, Folder: 11
Scope and Content
From the Collection:
This collection contains two volumes of the Pembroke Magazine edited by Macleod and containing installments of his memoirs. It also contains a large quantity of correspondence regarding the publication of Pembroke Magazine, particularly that between Macleod and the art editor of the magazine, Kris Hotvedt. Most of the letters (whether written by or to Kris Hotvedt) are annotated by Macleod. Some of these annotations are helpful in identifying individuals referred to in the letters. There is also a great deal of correspondence between Macleod and Norman Holmes Pearson of Yale (usually regarding Pembroke Magazine or Macleods collected papers housed in the archives at Yale). Of particular use to researchers of Norman Macleod is a written sketch of this man by Kris Hotvedt in which she quotes Macleods son (Norman Jr.) As saying, "Dad has always burned the candle at both ends and used a blow torch in the middle." The collection also contains correspondence to and about contributors to Pembroke Magazine such as Navajo artist Grey Cohoe, poet Kay Boyle, author Frank Waters, poet Archibald Macleish, Scottish poet W.S. Graham, author Arthur Miller, and poet and former student of Macleod, Kregg Spivey. The collection contains one unpublished poem by Norman Macleod.
