Biographical Note
Completing his work for a Ph.D. degree at Columbia and encouraged by John Dewey, he
taught logic for three years at the University. In 1909 Eastman organized the Men's
League for Woman's Suffrage. His marriage to Ida Rauh, actress and poet, occurred in
1911 and produced comment when it was learned Miss Rauh would retain her maiden
name. Their son Daniel was born in 1912. A year later Eastman's first books,
Enjoyment of Poetry and
Child of the
Amazons,
were published. During this time he became editor of
The Masses with its new idea in format and inclination
toward then-radical causes and worked with it until its close in October, 1917. The
next year with his sister Crystal Eastman as co-owner he started a new periodical
with similar interests called
The Liberator.
Leaving
The Liberator in the hands of others in 1922
Eastman attended the International Conference at Genoa, Italy, where he met the
secretary to Maxim Litvinoff, Eliena Krylenko, 1895-1956, artist and dancer.
Continuing on to Russia the two met again and were married in 1924. Their
correspondence may be found in the Eastman, E., mss. (The divorce from Miss Rauh had
been effected in 1922). During a sojourn of five years in Europe Eastman became
acquainted with Leon Trotsky, served as his literary agent in the United States, and
translated some of his works. The correspondence for this relationship may be found
in the Trotskii mss. Pursuing his interests in writing and lecturing on Russia,
socialism, literature, humor, and poetry, Eastman became engaged as a roving editor
for The Reader's Digest Association for a number of years. In several letters
Eastman refuted the suggestion that he was a Jew (1929, Dec. 6; 1938, Apr. 19; 1955,
Mar. 10). Following Miss Krylenko's death he married Yvette Székely, a former social
worker, in 1958.
Arrangement
The collection is organized into the following series: I. Biographical Materials; II.
Correspondence; III. Writings; IV. Printed Material; V. Printed Reviews.
Scope and Content Note
The major portion of the correspondence is concerned with Eastman's writings and the
response of leading figures to his books, articles, and lectures. Some of the
letters are in French, Italian, Spanish, German, Russian, and Swedish.
Further materials in the Eastman mss. include letters from Wladslaw M. Besterman,
Viktor Mikhailovich Chernov, Jan Ciechanowski enclosing an address to the
Cooperative Forum in Washington, D.C., Boris Ivanovich Nikolaevskii, a letter from
an anonymous Polish sociologist about the occupation of Poland in 1940, the State
Organization Publishing House in Moscow, and Nikolai Vladislavovich Volskii.
Among the printed materials are clippings and notes arranged by subject which were
collected by Eastman for the preparation of his writings and the newspaper or
