{"value"=>"<p>This series contains a small amount of family correspondence (mostly from Uta Hagen), general correspondence, and a few letters from Berghof. A fair amount of the correspondence is in German and is mostly related to professional projects. There are three items probably related to Berghof's family: a 1939 letter from Dr. Ludwig Berghoff (presumably related), a 1942 letter regarding Berghof's father's death, and a 1977 notice of a memorial service for Bernhard Sternberg, possibly Berghof's uncle.</p> <p>Other correspondents include Edward Albee, Brooks Atkinson, Albert Bassermann, Rolf Bayer, Bette Davis, Horton Foote, Eugene Ionesco, Pavel Kohout, John Lahr, Mike Nichols, Anthony Quinn, Ellis Rabb, Helene Thimig, and Thornton Wilder. Of particular note are two letters from Tennessee Williams: one handwritten mentioning his dramatization of <span class=\"title\">The Malediction</span>(ca. 1940s), the other typed, giving his permission to cast <span class=\"title\">Battle of Angels</span> (ca. 1975).</p> <p>Uta Hagen's correspondence is mostly from London during the run of <span class=\"title\">Who's Afraid of Virginia Woolf?</span> Correspondence to Hagen and Berghof is filed with Uta Hagen's papers. Correspondence from Berghof includes letters to Actors' Equity Association, George Mathews, and <span class=\"title\">The New York Times</span>.</p>"}
