{"value"=>"<p>Series II documents Wolfe's childhood creative work; his education at St. Christopher's School, Washington and Lee University, and Yale University; and writings prior to his first professional position as a journalist. Juvenilia includes Wolfe's childhood writings, as well as school and sports memorabilia such as report cards, awards, programs, score cards, and clippings. Other than clippings and game scores, there is little documentation of Wolfe's stint as a college and amateur baseball player. Wolfe's university and graduate school coursework is documented through essays, class notes, and assignments as well as research, drafts, and the final bound copy of his dissertation. Copies of school newspapers and literary journals from St. Christopher's School and Washington and Lee contain examples of Wolfe's earliest published work, which centers on sports and campus life. The titles \"Jocko Thor's Keyhole Autobiography,\" \"The Purple in the Kaleidoscope,\" and \"Goddamn Frozen Chosen\" represent Wolfe's writings independent of course assignments, showing an early interest in fiction writing.</p>"}
