Scope and Content of Collection
The first part of the papers of Allen Drury was acquired by the Hoover Institution in 1963. Increments continued to be added
until his death in 1998. The papers relate to Allen Drury's career as news correspondent turned Pulitzer Prize-winning author.
The bulk of the papers are the speeches and writing series, which spans the years 1932 through 1995. Included in this series
are drafts and galley proofs for his books, as well as numerous articles which were published separately. Most of his writings
pertain to the subjects of American politics and foreign relations.
Of significance is Drury's extensive correspondence with a wide array of politicians, heads of state, and celebrities. Included
are letters to and from Presidents Lyndon Johnson, Richard Nixon, and Ronald Reagan.
Drury's professional and social contacts illustrated by material in the biographical series, tie in closely to his work as
author and journalist.
