Scope and Contents

From the Collection:

The Martha Havlic papers date from 1914 to 2014 and measure 7.25 linear inches in 2 boxes. The papers are arranged in three series: Biographical, Writings, and Images.

The Biographical series (1914-2014) contains newspaper clippings and Havlic’s obituary, as well as family histories and official records including Havlic and her father’s birth certificates.

Havlic spent time writing down poetry and music lyrics on scraps of paper. In the Writing series (1988-2014), those materials can be found in addition to correspondence and two different newsletters to which Havlic subscribed and contributed.

The Images series (1921-2000) is made up of photographs and slides from Havlic’s childhood and adulthood, including images of her mother, friends, and time in California.
