Scope and Contents note

From the Series:

Materials relating to Stone and Camryn’s personal life, family, and careers before establishing the school together. Also includes some medical records and a medical history of both men from later in life. Walter Camryn collected programs and clippings about dancers and performers and kept numerous scrapbooks, some of which he indexed in the back, and some of which were indexed later by a Newberry volunteer. They include classical as well as modern dancers, some burlesque acts such as Sally Rand, and glamorous photos of film stars. The 25th Anniversary scrapbook in Subseries 3 includes letters and telegrams of congratulations from all over the world.
