| title | The Geoffrey T. Hellman Papers | repository | Fales Library and Special Collections |
| description | The Hellman Papers measured approximately 28 linear feet prior to processing. The collection was reduced to 26 linear feet after the removal of duplicate material. The Hellman Papers contain correspondence, research materials, drafts, proofs, manuscripts, and final publication material from his very prolific, nearly fifty year writing career. Because Hellman intended this collection to be a record of his career and of the history of The New Yorker, he included in the donation notes intended for whoever would be using the collection with his insights about writing for The New Yorker. These notes are referred to in the finding aid as "notes to the user". The collection has been divided into 16 series. The collection is organized primarily by type of article, which is determined by the magazine's own classification. The order of the series was determined by the number of articles Hellman wrote in a specific category. Series one consists of "Talk of the Town" articles, which comprised the bulk of Hellman's published work for The New Yorker. Series two consists of "Profiles." Series three is entitled "Subject Category" and it consists of articles organized by subject rather than type of article. Series four consists of "Casuals." Series five consists of "Onward and Upward" pieces. Series six consists of "Reporter At Large" pieces. Series seven contains information about Hellman's activities during World War II. Series eight consists of all the other kinds of articles Hellman wrote for The New Yorker. Series nine consists of information about The New Yorker style. Series 10 consists of articles Hellman wrote for publications other than The New Yorker. Series 11 consists of information about Hellman's published books. Series 12 consists of articles that cannot be identified by article type or publication that appear not to have been published. Series 13 consists of correspondence. Series 14 consists of Hellman's speeches. Series 15 consists of personal material unrelated to his career. Series 16 consists of financial information. Oversized material that did not fit in the oversized boxes is housed in the map case under the collection name. Galleys are filed in a drawer set in the workroom. |

| acquisition information | The papers of Geoffrey T. Hellman were donated by Hellman to the Fales Library of New York University on June 15, 1969. A second donation of material was made by his daughter, Katharine, in November of 1985. Other collections of his papers are located in the New York Public Library and in the New York Historical Society. Geoffrey Hellman, a staff writer for The New Yorker, felt that the papers that had not yet been donated should stay in New York rather than go to his alma mater, Yale University, because the materials deal mostly with the city; hence, the donation to New York University. |
