Biography

Charles Caldwell Dobie was born in San Francisco March 15, 1881, and unlike many California writers who went East after their first success, he continued to live in his native city. He attended local schools and, because of the death of his father and the necessity of contributing to family support, he never went beyond grammar school in formal education. He went into insurance work, starting as an errand boy and eventually becoming office manager. When he was nineteen he joined a class in short story writing inaugurated by W. C. Morrow, the noted journalist and writer. Under his direction, Dobie learned the short story craft. Writing in his spare time, he worked for ten years without selling a line. In October 1910 his first story was published in the San Francisco Argonaut. In 1916 he resigned his insurance position to devote full time to writing. Thereafter he became a regular contributor to leading magazines, including Smart Set, Harper's, Scribner's and Pictorial Review. Many of his stories were selected for inclusion in "best short story" anthologies, notably the Edward J. O'Brien and O. Henry memorial collections. His first novel, The Blood Red Dawn, was published in 1920. Other novels include Broken to the Plow (ca. 1921), Less than Kin (1926) and Portrait of a Courtesan (1934). In addition, he wrote from time to time, a number of newspaper columns, the most famous of which was "The Caliph in San Francisco," appearing in the San Francisco Bulletin, 1925-1926. The books which permanently identified him in the public mind with San Francisco were San Francisco: A Pageant (1933) and San Francisco's Chinatown (1936). Dobie died in his home in San Francisco on January 11, 1943.

Scope and Content

Charles Caldwell Dobie's papers were presented to the University in July 1944 by his brother Clarence W. Dobie, as a memorial to their mother, Mrs. Mary Slocumb Dobie. Covering the period 1905-1943, they consist of correspondence (both incoming letters and copies of his replies); manuscripts of his books, short stories, plays, articles, etc.; notes on Chinatown and California history; biographical and autobiographical material and personalia; some royalty statements; theater and opera programs; announcements, programs and invitations; and Christmas cards. A key to arrangement is included with this report. Letters written to Dobie have been arranged alphabetically; single letters filed in appropriate alphabetical miscellanies. Cards have been placed in the manuscripts catalog for correspondence of note. A complete index to the incoming correspondence is included with this report. Dobie's outgoing letters (typed copies and a few originals addressed to his brother, Clarence) have been arranged chronologically. A photograph of Dobie, dated August 1918, has been placed in the portrait file and assigned the call number BANC PIC 1945.009--E.
