Biographical Sketch Roger Angell (1920- ) is the senior fiction editor and an eminent baseball essayist for The New Yorker magazine. His evocative essays, spanning over forty years, are told from a fan’s perspective and celebrate the game’s leisurely pace and gradual rewards. Angell’s collective work, writes Joe Pollock in The Sporting Scene Book Review (1972), “touches the heart and feel and rhythm and pace of the game as few writers have.”

Roger Angell was born in City on September 19, 1920, to Katherine and . His father was a successful lawyer and his mother began serving as The New Yorker’s fiction editor shortly after its inception in 1925. Soon after her divorce from Ernest in 1929, Katharine Sergeant Angell married famed fiction author and New Yorker writer E. B. White, who produced humor pieces for the magazine. At an early age, Angell showed an interest in publishing and became editor of his school newspaper. In 1942, he graduated from Harvard and went on to write and edit short stories and essays for the next decade, including pieces for the Air Force’s Brief and Holiday magazine. He joined the staff of The New Yorker full time in 1956 as a fiction editor and has since written fiction, humor, editorial comment, criticism, and sports reports for the magazine.

In 1962, The New Yorker invited Angell to attend and write a piece on baseball. Upon his return, he authored his first extended baseball essay for the magazine’s “The Sporting Scene” section, entitled “The Old Folks Behind Home”. Since that time, Angell has written two to three lengthy baseball pieces each year. His work spans over forty years of the game, during which time he has observed the rise of the franchise movement, the birth of free agency, expansion teams, ballooning player salaries, and a growing awareness of drug use. To date, Angell has written over one hundred articles for “The Sporting Scene”. In addition, collections of Angell’s essays have been published in a number of well-received compilations (The Summer Game (1972), Five Seasons (1977), Late (1982), Season Ticket (1988), Once More Around the Park (1991), and Game Time (2003),) Angell wrote his first full-length book, A ’s Story: Innings with (2001), at the age of 81. In 2006, Angell published “Let Me Finish,” a collection of autobiographical essays published over the previous three years.

Scope and Content Typescripts, galley proofs, notepads, notes, audio recordings, transcripts, scorecards, media notes, press releases, printed material, newspaper clippings, photographs and correspondence document author Roger Angell’s creative process over 38 years (67 boxes, 1907, 1960-1998). His papers are arranged into three series: Series I. Baseball Articles and Related Material, Series II. Books and Related Material, Series III. Other Works and Related Material, Series IV. Correspondence, and Series V. General. Series I. Baseball Articles and Related Material (62 boxes, 1962-1998) is the most extensive of the series and consists of typescript drafts of Angell’s creative works at various stages accompanied by related notes and other documentation in the form of handwritten and typewritten notes, transcripts, scorecards, audio recordings of player, management, and media interviews, and printed material including media notes and press releases, magazines, media guides, and newspaper articles. His game notes are extensive, and though the bulk of their volume is composed of media notes and press releases and other printed material not authored by Angell, his handwritten notes and transcripts and his recorded interviews offer insights and information unavailable elsewhere. Series II. Books and Related Material (4 folders, 1977) is comparatively sparse, and contains a typescript, correspondence, notes, and reviews related to the publishing of Five Seasons (1977). Series III. Other Works and Related Material (1.5 boxes, 1960-1974) documents the writing of some of Angell’s other New Yorker pieces, including movie reviews and other sports-related essays. Series IV. Correspondence (3 boxes, 1970-1995, bulk 1979-1995) is arranged into two subseries: Reader Mail and Personal and Professional Correspondence. The first subseries (2.5 boxes) is composed largely of reader mail received by Angell between 1979 and 1995, and is arranged alphabetically by the author’s last name. Correspondence of a personal and professional nature (3 folders, 1970-1972, 1981) makes up the second subseries. Series V. General (1 folder, 1907, 1964-1995) includes unidentified and miscellaneous documents.

Series I. Baseball Articles and Related Material (62 boxes, 1960-1998, bulk 1979-1998)

Series Description This series consists of typescript drafts of Angell’s “The Sporting Scene” baseball pieces at various stages followed by extensive notes he referred to in writing his articles, all arranged chronologically by season. Related materials are grouped according to the part of the season they document and ordered by form based on the insight they offer into the Angell’s creative process. Typescripts come first, followed by handwritten notes, audio interviews and transcripts, scorecards, printed material such as media notes and press releases, magazines, newspapers, programs, media guides, printed articles, and finally travel and logistical papers. Newspaper and oversized clippings, many of which include Angell’s handwritten notes, are housed separately in oversized boxes and ordered chronologically (boxes 63-67, 1962-1998). In addition to his loose- leaf notes, Angell took down writing ideas, game notes, and some interview information in spiral notepads. Angell kept copious notes on the games he attended, and the bulk of his papers cover spring training and postseason games. His interviews in particular offer invaluable insight into the greatest players and managers of the last four decades. Notable persons interviewed include , , , , , Tony Gwynn, , , , Smokey Joe Wood, Ted Williams, and .

Series IV. Correspondence (3 boxes, 1970 - 1995, bulk 1979-1995)

Series Description This series is divided into two subseries: Reader Mail (2.5 boxes, 1979-1995) and Personal and Professional Correspondence (3 folders, 1970-1972, 1981). The former consists of letters written to Angell by readers documenting his close relationship with his fans over a period of 26 years. The authors range from schoolchildren to television executives and issued from across the and abroad. Angell drew source material from these letters and referred to correspondents in his writings. In a letter of introduction which precedes the mail, he writes that the letters are “a tribute to the fame and testament to its ability to arouse passionate feelings and attachments.” Notable correspondents from diverse backgrounds include Mets General J. Frank Cashen, Steven Jay Gould (evolutionary biologist), Murray Horwitz (public radio personality), Steve Wulf (executive editor of ESPN magazine), William White (National League President), Nadine Strossen (ALCU president), and Michael P. Stone (Secretary of the Army). The second subseries, Personal and Professional Correspondence, sheds light on Angell’s interactions with publishers, colleagues, organizations, and friends. Angell only retained letters from 1970-1972 and 1981, so these letters provide just a sampling of his correspondence. Letters are ordered alphabetically by the authors’ last names. Enclosures accompany a number of letters and include photographs, creative works, newspaper clippings, and printed material.
