Alan Burnham was born on February 10, 1913 in Englewood, New Jersey. He spent his early childhood in Philadelphia, later attending preparatory schools in Connecticut and Colorado. In 1931, he moved to Cambridge, Massachusetts to attend Harvard University. There, he would meet lifelong friends, Henry Hope Reed, architectural critic, and Wayne Andrews, architectural photographer, who he would correspond and collaborate with for the entirety of his professional career. Burnham graduated from Harvard in 1935 with a Bachelor of Science and went on to receive a Bachelor of Architecture from Columbia University in 1940. In 1939, he obtained from Richard Barren Hunt a copy of Catherine Howland Hunt's manuscript chronicling the life of her husband, Richard Morris Hunt. Burnham's work editing and indexing the Hunt manuscript sparked an enduring fascination in the career of the 19th century architect.
After receiving his architectural degree, Burnham worked as an architect, but always maintained an active interest in the study of American architectural history. In 1953, he served on the American Institute of Architects New York Chapter's Committee on Housing, authoring a committee report entitled The Dwelling in Greater Manhattan: The Apartment 1850-1895, chronicling the history of apartment housing in New York City. While working as an associate at Shanley & Sturges, Burnham served as a member of the Municipal Arts Society's Committee on Historic Architecture under the tutelage of his employer and Committee Chairman, Walter Knight Sturges. He succeeded Sturges as chairman and through the Municipal Arts Society, authored a broad survey of New York City's historic architecture called New York Landmarks: A Study & Index of Architecturally Notable Structures in Greater New York, later published by Wesleyan University Press in 1963. In the course of his research for both the AIA and the MAS, Burnham began acquiring reference materials that evolved into his American Architectural Archive. Burnham saw the archive as his contribution to the study of architectural history, amassing a great wealth of publications, photographs, and prints catalogued for use by other historians.
Throughout his career, Burnham was a member of numerous preservation organizations, such as the Friends of Cast Iron Architecture, the Society of Architectural Historians, and the Victorian Society in America, as well as worked on a variety of preservation projects, such as the Jefferson Market Courthouse, the Greenwich Christ Rectory, and the Brooklyn Heights Historic District. His unwavering commitment to the preservation of America's historic structures established him as a founder of the burgeoning preservation movement in the United States during the 1950s and 1960s. From 1965 to 1973, Burnham served as the Executive Director of New York City's Landmarks Preservation Commission. After 1973, he stayed on at the Landmarks Preservation Commission as their Director of Research. Burnham also served as a member of the Connecticut Historic Commission and the Historic District Commission of Greenwich. He died in 1984 at the age of 71. Burnham left unfinished his work on a biography of Richard Morris Hunt, a compendium of New York City public squares, and an annotated biography of New York City, published posthumously as New York City: The Development of a Metropolis.

Comprised of two subseries: Architects and Topical . The first subseries mostly contains newspaper and magazine clippings that reference nineteenth and early twentieth century architects who designed buildings that stood within the New York metropolitan area. Files are sorted according to the name of the architect or architectural firm. Architects who almost exclusively designed structures in Brooklyn are grouped together under the file folder name, Brooklyn, NY. In addition to clippings, some folders contain photographs, negatives, slides, notes, and correspondence. Burnham collected a significant amount of reference and photographic material for McKim, Mead, & White, Frederick C. Withers, and Alexander Jackson Davis. The second subseries contains topical reference files regarding subjects, places, or structures that are located in or somehow related to New York City architecture or landscapes. Most of the material is newspaper and magazine clippings with some photographs, negatives, slides, publications, and correspondence. The Manhattan Parks file folders contain material Burnham gathered for an unfinished project that surveyed New York City public parks and squares. File folders Burnham sorted according to borough, such as Manhattan, NY, or type of structure, like churches, have been maintained in this subseries.

Burnham maintained a series of file folders on architectural critics, architectural styles, and sculptors. This second subseries also contains the reference card catalogue Burnham used for his American Architectural Archive as well as miscellaneous reference material and photographs Burnham did not sort into file folders. The third subseries contains mostly newspaper and magazine clippings regarding architects, buildings, and subjects within or referencing cities in the United States. File folders are organized by the name of the city in alphabetical order.
