Scope and Content

With the exceptions of letters to her mother and father, most of Gladys Tilden's family correspondence is with relatives on the Tilden side of the family, and occurred after her father's death in 1935. Her mother, adopted as an infant, was an only child. Tilden's correspondence with her parents was with them individually, as they separated in 1918 and later divorced. Letters with her father concern art, literature, politics, current events, and his sculpture. He was emotionally supportive of her blossoming career in the fashion industry in Paris, the site of his own art education. Her letters to him are contained in the Douglas Tilden Papers (89/124 c). Letters to her mother describe current fashions, her work, and life in Paris.

Each sub-series (incoming, outgoing, neither to nor from) in her personal and professional correspondence can be divided into four distinct and separate areas: fashion activities, research on her father and his works, research on Eliza Woodson Farnham, and personal matters, such as employment and finances. Her fashion activities are well represented in the incoming letters, though less well among her outgoing correspondence. Either she did not retain copies of her letters relating to that period in her life or she later destroyed them. Extant within this area are her letters to Bonwit-Teller, the New York department store; Edna Woolman Chase, the editor of Vogue from 1909 to 1952; and Edward A. Cohen, of Bonwit-Teller. Principal among the incoming correspondence relating to the fashion industry are letters from Katherine Johnson, a Conde Nast compatriot; Graf Merveldt, a Parisian artist; and Mrs. Chase, of Vogue. Others are Bonwit-Teller, the store; Paul J. Bonwit and his son Walter Bonwit, and Edward A. Cohen, of Bonwit-Teller; Main Rousseau Bocher, an expatriate American who became an instant sensation as a fashion designer in Paris; and Lillian Farley, an American in the French editorial offices of Harpers Bazaar. These letters illustrate the intense competition within a fledgling industry on its way to becoming big business.

The correspondence relating to Gladys Tilden's research on Tilden and Farnham is with numerous scholars, libraries, historical societies, and students. The research on her father, Douglas Tilden, languished for many years, overshadowed by her interest in Eliza Farnham. Doyce Blackman Nunis, John Matthews, and Walter David Lewis are principal correspondents concerning Eliza Woodson Farnham. Among those concerning Douglas Tilden are Albert K. Whitton, a San Francisco attorney who represented her interests in a lawsuit against the California School for the Deaf over title to Tilden's Bear Hunt sculpture. Other principal correspondents relating to Douglas Tilden are Brother Cornelius, an art professor at Saint Mary's College in Moraga, California; Mildred Albronda, a San Francisco museum docent who wrote Douglas Tilden: Portrait of a Deaf Sculptor, published in 1980; and Henry Lee Perry, historian for the Bohemian Club. Millie Robbins, a San Francisco Chronicle feature writer and columnist, corresponded with her about both Tilden and Farnham, as well as history of the Bay area.

Notable among her personal outgoing correspondence is that to Richard Joseph Neutra, an architect for whom she worked as an office manager, and Keith S. Griffiths, her supervisor at the California Youth Authority.

After returning to the United States due to her father's death, and discouraged from returning to Paris because of the impending war, she carried on her fashion activities, but these were becoming increasingly draining--a great deal of effort for little monetary return. With her mother living with her, money was a source of constant worry. In 1937, Bill Taylor, whom she hoped to marry, died in Philadelphia. The stress of these personal crises led her to seek psychoanalytic treatment in 1941.

The most interesting item within Series 3: Personal and family papers is the stream-of-consciousness autobiography written as part of her therapy with Dr. Stanley Marcus. In it she discloses many details of her very difficult childhood, as a hearing child of rather temperamental, deaf parents and her feelings and response to such circumstances. She also reveals details of her life in Paris, 1927-1935, making up somewhat for the lack of outgoing correspondence concerning this part of her life. Away from both of her parents and without the burden of interpreting for and protecting them, she felt free to engage in new experiences and experiment with lifestyles different from her Victorian upbringing. She became part of a group of stylish, trendy, and unrestrained artists, models, writers, publishers, and actors. Series 5: Fashion, 1927-1954 contains the work from her Parisian years, as well as that from her subsequent fashion activities.

Tilden's Paris years were to have an immense influence on the remainder of her working life. With the United States' entry into World War II, the fashion industry became, practically overnight, superfluous and trivial. During this time she worked as a managing technical editor for the Douglas Aircraft Company. Forced to surrender her position to a man after the war, she found the fashion industry as she had known it entirely changed. America no longer necessarily looked to Europe for trends and guidance, and Parisian experience was no longer of value to employers. She returned to office/administrative positions in private business and civil service, but none as challenging, glamourous, or as personally fulfilling, as her Paris years. These events are alluded to in many of her later writings, contained in Series 4.

Many of these later writings, although cast as fiction, are clearly autobiographical. One title When I Sat Down to Play the Chickering Piano, relates a poignant episode from her childhood concerning piano lessons and her father. Her most significant publications outside of the fashion industry were done for the Crocker Company as part of the Golden Gate International Exposition in 1939. The purpose for her research on both Eliza Farnham, and her father, Douglas Tilden, was to produce a book about each of them. However, she never progressed past the research stage. This material is found in Series 6.
