{"value"=>"<p>This sub-series consists of Cahill's correspondence with writers, artists, publishers and others. Included are such notables as Albert Barr, Malcolm Cowley, Dorothy Day, Hallie Flanagan, Mike Gold, Josephine Herbst, Stanton MacDonald-Wright, Nikolaus Pevsner, Mari Sandoz, and Ethel Schwabacker. Josephine Herbst's interesting letters number over sixty and cover the period 1950-1960. They contain friendly criticisms of Cahill's writings, and comments on literature and politics and her own work, her friendship with Cahill, relations with various publishers, and her radical political views. The witty letters of Stanton MacDonald-Wright, written in 1947 and reflecting his opinions on art, especially Oriental art, and his life as a painter, are also of unusual interest, as are the letters of the British art historian and editor, Nikolaus Pevsner, requesting that Cahill write a book for the Penguin History of Art series.</p>"}
