Scope and Content NoteThe papers of Ray Stannard Baker (1870-1946) span the years 1836 to 1947, with the bulk of the material concentrated inthe period 1907 to 1944. The collection is organized as Personal Papers and a Woodrow Wilson File. The Personal Papersconsist of diaries and notebooks, a correspondence file including letters between Edith Bolling Galt Wilson and Bakerrelating to Baker's biography of Woodrow Wilson, his role in the Paris Peace Conference, speeches and writings, andmiscellany containing personal and professional material, some of it pertaining to the Woodrow Wilson Foundation andBaker's part in the making of the motion picture "Woodrow Wilson."

The Personal Papers document Baker's life as a boy, a college student, a young newspaper man, and a magazine editor.There are many exchanges with members of his family, especially with his father, Joseph Stannard Baker. This materiallater provided background information for Baker's autobiography.

Other correspondence treats Baker's work on the Chicago Record and McClure's Magazine and documents his emergenceas a Progressive. Correspondence after 1920, which is considerably more extensive than that covering his years as ajournalist and presidential assistant, note his work on the Wilson biography and his collaboration with the president'swidow, Edith Bolling Galt Wilson.

The speeches and writings file in the Personal Papers series contains copies of Baker's works and research material forFollowing the Color Line, an examination of African Americans after the turn of the century; typescript drafts of LaFollette's Autobiography, to which Baker contributed; and examinations of labor conditions and the development ofindustrialism. Files relate to his autobiographical writings and his studies of Wilson, and Baker's scrapbooks contain piecesfor the Chicago Record assist in identifying Baker's early unsigned works. Although much of the material relating to workwritten under his pen name, David Grayson, is located at the Jones Library in Amherst, Massachusetts, similar material isincluded in this collection. A bibliography of his works by his daughter, Rachel Baker Napier, accompanies the Library'scollection.

The Woodrow Wilson File consists of correspondence and other material assembled by Baker during the fifteen years hedevoted to his biography of Wilson. A subseries of correspondence includes originals, transcripts, and photocopies ofletters written to or by Wilson, transcripts of his letters to his first wife, Ellen Axson Wilson, and Baker's correspondencerelating to Wilson as well as memoranda of interviews and printed matter. Other correspondents include Jane Addams,Albert A. Boyden, Frank Nelson Doubleday, W. E. B. Du Bois, Ernst H. P. A. Haeckel, Norman Hapgood, Ben B. Lindsey,Samual S. McClure, George Foster Peabody, John S. Phillips, Theodore Roosevelt, Upton Sinclair, Lincoln Steffens, IdaTarbell, Booker T. Washington, and William Allan White. Chronological notes on Wilson's day-to-day writings andactivities prepared by Baker's assistant, Katharine E. Brand, complete the series.
