More Than Words: Illustrated Letters from the Smithsonian's Archives of American Art
Edith Schloss (b. 1919) to Philip Pearlstein
25 Mar. 1981
Painter and writer Edith Schloss wrote to painter Philip Pearlstein and others thanking them for their help and encouragement on her extended stay in the United States. On the back of the letter, she mused: “I wish we had a national archives here to give all my junk & diaries to—I’m not good at throwing away things.” Pearlstein had donated his papers to the Smithsonian’s Archives of American Art, and she subsequently followed suit.
