Scope and Content
The Ailing Zhang papers consist of seven boxes of correspondence, manuscripts, newspaper clippings and journal articles, photographs, and essays, articles, and speeches (written by Zhang Ailing). The strength of the collection is found within the correspondence as this series chronicles Zhang Ailing's life and career in the United States, primarily her professional relationship with Dr. C.T. Hsia. Though a largely obscure figure in modern Chinese literature from the 1950s to the 1970s, Zhang's career was revived by Dr. Hsia who played a role in helping Zhang achieve wider recognition. The materials in the collection are written in Chinese (traditional characters) and English.
