was adapted into a Hollywood film starring Audrey Hepburn in 1959. Though she was best known during her lifetime for this remarkably successful book, Hulme was more than a one-novel writer; she was the author of nine well-received books of fiction and nonfiction, some of which earned national awards and recognition. For a time, Hulme considered writing her own autobiography. In a letter to her editor Beatrice Baumgarten Cozzens on April 24, 1961, Hulme noted one motivation for the project, “…a half century of a woman’s life in a century when women like me, childless, husbandless, outside the conforming norm, might, just might be news of a sort.” The Kathryn Hulme Papers span the dates 1846-1981 but the bulk of the material dates from the years 1945-81. The collection has six series. Series I, Writings , contains manuscripts of both published and unpublished works, as well as related materials. ProfessionalCorrespondence , Series II, fills nine boxes and is primarily composed of Hulme's correspondence with her publishers and her literary agents. Series III, Professional Correspondence , consists of correspondence with friends and a few relatives. Series IV, Family Papers , contains personal papers of Hulme and several family members, and Photographs , Series V, fills nineteen boxes. Currently, only a portion of the Kathryn Hulme Papers are available online.
