Series II: Writings, 1922-1962, undated

Included in this series are manuscripts, drafts, published work and notes by Evans and others; many of the writers whose work appears here were probably Evans' clients during her time as a literary agent. Various manuscripts of Evans' written work are available, including several drafts of an article about Nina Khrushcheva that she wrote during Khrushcheva and her husband's visit to America in 1959, drafts of book reviews, articles for the Office of War Information and various other writings.

Manuscripts and drafts by other authors include work by Carlton Beals, Martha Bensley Bruère, Clinch Calkins, Elizabeth Ellis, Thomas Hibben, Anabel Hughes, Paula Holladay, Ellen Nelson, James W. Osgood, Ken Sato, Felizia Seyd, Janet Stevenson, Harriet Teague, Beatrice Washburn, Annabel Williams-Ellis, and Corwin Willson, among others.

Memoranda, transcripts, newspaper and magazine clippings (of Evans' work and others'), and full periodicals and books are also represented.
