Eleanor Early Papers MS.1995.005 - Page 4 - Biographical / Historical Eleanor Early was born the second of six children in Newton, Massachusetts, on April 27, 1895, to James A. Early and Sarah (Dolan) Early. Her mother worked in advertising before raising the children. Early grew up in Wellesley, Massachusetts. After high school she attended Miss Wheelock's Kindergarten Training School in Boston. Upon graduating in 1917, Early started teaching kindergarten in her hometown. Early began her career as a writer by working as a reporter and feature writer for three Boston newspapers, the Boston American, The Herald, and The Sunday Advertiser. In 1926 Early left her reporting jobs to travel, and in the next year she visited Egypt, Jerusalem, France, and Cuba. Following her travels, she published three novels, Orchid (1929), The Shining Talent (1929), and Whirlwind (1930), as serial stories with the Newspaper Enterprise Association. She then combined her reporting and love of travel by working for the International News Service (INS). As a correspondent Early traveled to the West Indies, Africa, New York City, and Washington, D.C. From the INS, Early moved into freelancing, selling stories about her travels while living abroad in Dominica, Haiti, and Tortola. Early wrote prolifically during the 1930s and early 1940s, and published ten books, mostly about travel: And This is Boston (1930), And This is Washington (1934), Behold the White Mountains (1935), And This is Cape Cod (1936), Ports of the Sun (1937), Adirondack Tales (1939), Lands of Delight (1939), A New England Sampler (1940), She Knew What He Wanted (1941), and An Island Patchwork (1941). World War II impacted her ability to travel, and in 1942, she hosted a weekly radio show, in which she addressed news from Washington of interest to women. Her topics ranged from rationing, shortages, and prices to education, entertainment, and the effects of war on fashion. After the war Early resumed her travels and writing. She subsequently published her most successful travel books: New Orleans Holiday (1947) and New York Holiday (1950). During this period she also wrote Cape Cod Summer (1949), the New England Cookbook (1954), and Washington Holiday (1955). In the 1960s Early shifted her focus to magazine articles, and she covered locals as diverse as Kentucky and South Africa. She died in 1969. Sources: "Biography of Eleanor Early."

Her travel writings describe destinations on the east coast of the United States, the Caribbean, the West Indies, Europe, and South Africa; other article topics cover culture, fashion, marriage, shopping, and personal reflection.

Of note are drafts of two uncompleted biography projects - "Boy's and Girls' Life of Mark Twain" and a proposed work on Theodosia Burr Alston - and of her published advice book She Knew What He Wanted. Early's writing materials include typescripts, published works, and planners with notes related to her articles and books, as well as publicity materials and transcripts of her radio broadcasts.

    FOR RELEASE UPON DELIVERY ADDRESS By HONORABLE J. HOWARD McGRATH ATTORNEY GENERAL OF TEE UNITED STATES Prepared for Delivery at AMASA HOWE AWARD DINNER of THE BOSTON PRESS CLUB Copley Plaza Hotel Boston, Massachusetts Thursday, March 8, 1951 7:00 F.M. Tao inner essence of the conflict that divides the world in two ar~ed campa io. , it seems to me, expressed in this meeting here tonight. We are to discuss ·the principle of FREEDOM OF THE PRESS IN A COLD WAR. Freedom means a newspaper's right to be itself, to dress its news and editorial columns as i-t pleases, and to take its chances in the competition of the market place for public approval and support with other journals in the community. It means, for example, that The Boaton GlcbG shall continue to enjoy its right to be judicial on its editorial page and broad and all­ eneompaesing 1.n its coverage of the foreign, national and the local news. It mean; that Th~ Bosten Post may be as enterprising as it has always been, t and as reflective of the newspaper likes of its large, enthusiastic and loyal r~aders. It means that the Hearst publications in this city shall not be abridged in their desire to pr.esent the news as they see it, and J to comment on it editorially and in their news columns, if they like, according to whatever happens to be the twist and bent of the Hearst p61icy. FREEDOM OF THE PRESS TO ME MEANS FREEDOM OF THE PRESS.

First, I appreciate the close cooperation which I received from persons formally involved--Jim Weaver, Sidney Hess, Harry Siegfeld and others at CROND; Jim Dorsey, Kathy Gallery, and Sally Lewis at MIT's Center for International Studies; and Roy Salzman and others at the Arthur D. Little Corporation. This work was financially supported by a fellowship from CROND and was administered by the MIT Center for International Studies. The Arthur D. Little Corporation was used as a consultant in the preparation of part of the report. The computer experiment could never have been performed in so short a time if it were not for the generous assistance and long hours which were voluntarily provided by Ron Zeilinger and his expert staff at the MIT Computation Center and by Elmer Bartels, Cynthia Benson and Helen Forweiler all of Bedford, Massachusetts.
