This small collection is comprised primarily of printed materials and manuscript drafts collected and created by Korean-American physician Won Tai Sohn (1914-2014), a close friend of North Korean founder Kim Il Sung (1912-1994). The majority of the collection (primarily in Korean) dates from the 1970s to early 2000s and is comprised of printed materials in the form of articles, clippings, pamphlets, books, reports, programs, and numerous early drafts of Sohn's memoirs, under its original working titles "The Divided Korean Peninsula: the Memoirs of Dr. Won Tai Sohn" and "My Relationship with Kim Il Sung (1918-1994): the Memoirs of Dr. Won Tai Sohn." The collection also contains personal photographs, albums, negatives, and certificates relating to Sohn's medical career, trip to North Korea in 1992 to visit Kim Il Sung, and familial history. The remainder of the collection comprises personal papers consisting of resumes, notebooks, correspondence, travel documents, Sohn's obituary and sympathy cards, and ephemera in the form of a name plate and a rubbing on parchment.
