#FindingAidFriday: Holly Fine - Danny Kaye Papers

The Holly Fine – Danny Kaye Papers have been housed in the Special Collections Library since their purchase in 2001.  The abstract from the finding aid reads:

“Holly Fine was a dancer and performer with the traveling vaudeville production, the Marcus Show, in the 1930s. The collection documents Fine’s relationship with entertainer Danny Kaye, as well as the Marcus Show itself. Includes correspondence, vaudeville programs and promotional material, photographs, scrapbooks, printed material and drawings. The correspondence includes approximately 0.5 linear feet of letters written from Kaye to Fine.”
