Powell, published in Dictionary of North Carolina Biography, volume 2, pp. 358-359 (Chapel Hill: UNC Press, 1986), and used with permission. It is followed by a list of works by Paul Green prepared by Rhoda Wynn in 1976, also slightly adapted.]
PAUL ELIOT GREEN, dramatist, author, and teacher, was born on 17 March 1894 in Harnett County, North Carolina, the son of William Archibald and Betty Lorine Byrd Green. He grew up on his father's farm engaging in the labors and pleasures of rural life. For a time he played minor-league baseball for a team in Lillington and was widely acclaimed as a pitcher because he was ambidextrous. Music also was an important part of his life. His mother bought an organ and taught her children to play. Green taught himself to play the violin and later composed music for his plays. After graduation from nearby Buies Creek Academy in 1914, he worked to earn money for college and entered The University of North Carolina in 1916. As a freshman he wrote poems that were published in The Carolina Magazine, and he was the author of the play produced by the seniors at commencement.
In April 1917, before finishing his first year at the university, Green enlisted in the army for service in World War I. Before leaving for France he published at his own expense a thin volume of poems, Trifles of Thought by P.E.G., because he was not certain that he would survive the war to pursue the literary career of which he dreamed. Young Green rose rapidly through the ranks from private to corporal, sergeant, and sergeant-major with the 105th Engineers, 30th Division; afterwards he was commissioned second lieutenant with the Chief of Engineers in Paris. During a year's service at the front in Belgium and France, he participated in several months of heavy combat in the trenches. This experience had a lasting effect on him, though he was always reluctant to speak about it. He returned to the university in 1919 and graduated with a major in philosophy in 1921. Green studied under Frederick H. Koch, a newly arrived member of the faculty, who had organized the Carolina Playmakers in 1918. The new professor encouraged Green and others to write "folk plays" based on local subjects and their own experiences. Plays by his students, including many by Paul Green, were produced. One of the students, Elizabeth Lay, daughter of the Reverend George Lay, rector of St. Mary's College in Raleigh, married Green on 6 July 1922. After a year of graduate study in philosophy under Professor Horace Williams in Chapel Hill, Green went to Cornell University for further graduate work and in 1923 became an assistant professor of philosophy at The University of North Carolina. He remained in that department until 1939, when he became a professor of dramatic art. In 1944, he resigned to devote full time to writing.
Throughout his twenty-one years as a professor, Green wrote plays as well as short stories, novels, and poetry. Although many were produced by the Carolina Playmakers in Chapel Hill, some were produced in Washington, D. C., New York, and elsewhere. In 1927 he was awarded the Pulitzer Prize for In Abraham's Bosom produced at the Garrick Theater in New York. His other Broadway plays included The House of Connelly, Roll Sweet Chariot, Johnny Johnson, and Native Son .
For many years Paul and Elizabeth Green collaborated with others in the production of "The Literary Lantern," a newspaper column of book reviews and book news. In 1925, Green became editor of The Reviewer, a literary journal. He also contributed to newspapers, particularly the Raleigh News and Observer . Travel for educational purposes occupied some of his time. In the summer of 1926 he was at the MacDowell Colony in New Hampshire, and, while on leave of absence as a Guggenheim Fellow in 1928 and 1929, he studied the theatre in Germany and England. In 1951, supported by the Rockefeller Foundation, he traveled and studied the theater in Japan and elsewhere in the Orient.
After seeing the motion picture, The Birth of a Nation, in 1915, Green anticipated the development of this medium as a true art form. He welcomed the opportunity in 1932 to go to Hollywood, Calif., under contract to Warner Brothers to write scripts for motion pictures. For various lengths of time and for different companies, including Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer, he wrote scripts in Hollywood for films starring George Arliss, Lionel Barrymore, Bette Davis, Clark Gable, Greer Garson, Will Rogers, and others. Although well paid for his work, he was rarely satisfied with the artistic quality of the final product, and scandalized by what he saw as Hollywood's immorality. He often declined to accept particular assignments and finally ended the association after 1964.
Long interested in a new form of drama, Green was inspired by some plays he saw in Germany. As early as 1928, he wrote Professor Koch of his hope to use the theme of the "Lost Colony" of Roanoke Island in dramatic production. This was realized in 1937, when The Lost Colony, a "symphonic drama" as he termed it, was produced in an outdoor theatre on Roanoke Island, site of the 1587 colony. Employing the spoken word, song, music, dance, pantomime, and light, it was a notable success and except for the years of World War II has been produced by the Roanoke Island Historical Association each summer since. This was merely the first of such works by Green and others; historical dramas, presented at or near the site of the actual events depicted, have appeared all around the United States. Green himself was the author of fifteen plays written to be performed outdoors in North Carolina, Florida, Virginia, Kentucky, Texas, and elsewhere.
Green's contributions were widely recognized. In addition to the early Pulitzer Prize and the Guggenheim Fellowship, he received the Belasco Little Theatre Tournament trophy in 1925. Other honors included the National Theatre Conference plaque, the American Theater Association citation for distinguished service to the theater, the North Carolina Civil Liberties Union's Frank P. Graham Award, the Morrison Award, the North Caroliniana Society Award, the North Carolina Writers Conference Award, and the Sir Walter Raleigh cup. In 1979 the General Assembly named him North Carolina's dramatist laureate. He received honorary doctorates from The University of North Carolina, Davidson College, Campbell College, the North Carolina School of the Arts, and four out-of-state colleges and universities.
He was a member of the National Institute of Arts and Letters and of the executive committee of the U. S. National Commission for UNESCO (1950-52). In 1951, he was a delegate to the UNESCO conference in Paris. Green also held the following positions: president, American Folk Festival, 1934-1945; president, National Theatre Conference, 1940-1942; member, Board of Directors, American National Theatre and Academy, 1959-61; delegate, International Conference on the Performing Arts, Athens, Greece, 1962; member, Advisory Committee, North Carolina School of the Arts, beginning in 1964; member, Advisory Board, Institute of Outdoor Drama, beginning in 1952.
From his youth, when he demonstrated sympathy and compassion for the poor, blacks, and others whom he saw around him in his rural community, Paul Green acted and spoke in support of the basic rights of all humanity. A gentle, kindly man, he knew when, where, and how to direct attention to the wrongs he witnessed and to seek redress. Civil rights, poverty, and political oppression were all causes of concern to him, and he lent support to them in person, in print, and financially. He spoke out against and wrote plays dealing with war, lynching, chain gangs, prejudice, and superstition. Even though at times his stand was unpopular in many quarters, his ideals were understood and there was little or no personal criticism of him. It was known that Green was "haunted by the ideal of perfection" and that he believed in the "uniqueness of man as responsible to his neighbor and to God."
Paul and Elizabeth Green were the parents of Paul Eliot, Jr., Nancy Byrd (Cornwell), Elizabeth "Betsy" McAllister (Moyer), and Janet MacNeill (Lauritzen, 1955-1958, and later Catlin). Paul Green's siblings were Daniel Hugh Green, Gladys Green Sylvester, Mary Green Johnson, Erma Green Gold, and Caro Mae Green Russell (Couch in the mid-1960s). Elizabeth Lay Green's sisters were Virginia "Ginger" Lay Hawkins, Ellen Lay Hodgkinson, Nancy Lay White, and Lucy Lay Zuber; her brother was Henry C. Lay.
Paul Green died on 4 May 1981. He was buried in the old Chapel Hill Cemetery near the Paul Green Theatre on the university campus.

This collection documents practically all facets of the life of Paul Green from his army service in France in World War I until his death in 1981. It also includes significant material documenting the life and work of his wife, Elizabeth Lay Green, and numerous items relating to members of the Greens' immediate and extended families.
Green's work as a dramatist and writer is thoroughly documented. "General Files" (Series 1), arranged by year and then alphabetically by correspondent or subject, were established by Green and his assistants. These are primarily Green's professional correspondence files. They are extensive, holding about 30,000 items, and have been intensively indexed.
Series 2 ("Dramatic Works") and Series 3 ("Other Writings") further document Green's professional career. Each of his "symphonic dramas" is covered in Series 2 by a set of files that typically includes background material, drafts, musical scores, and business records of various types. Series 3 consists of drafts of poems, novels, essays, and other works, and other material relating to them; these extend from poems written in France during and just after World War I to writings on which Green was working shortly before his death. Series 8 consists of material that Green filed as "Source Material," largely items relating to research for essays, articles, lectures, and plays.
Green's work as writer and dramatist also is referred to in some of the family correspondence in Series 4, is reflected in the financial records, appointment books, and subject files in Subseries 5.1 and 5.5, and 5.6 respectively, is discussed in his diaries in Series 6, and is evident in some of the photographs and tape recordings in Series 7. Series 8 contains "source material," and is maintained as it was organized by Paul Green or his assistants. This series is comprised of a variety of material, including preliminary research for articles, lectures, essays, and plays, miscellaneous clippings and other writings, novelty items, and family correspondence during Paul Green's trip to Greece and the USSR during the summer of 1962.
Green's humanitarian interests and activities also are extensively documented in this collection. They are the subject of many letters in Series 1, which, again, are accessible through the index that forms the appendix to this inventory. They also are mentioned in letters in Series 4 and are reflected in Subseries 5.1 and 5.5. Subseries 5.3 is a set of files devoted by Green to material relating to capital punishment (see also Series 8, under "C," and Series 3.3, folder 3926Y).
All series, except the two (2 and 3) devoted strictly to his writings, document Paul Green's personal life. Green included many personal and family letters in his professional correspondence files (Series 1), and many otherwise professional letters include personal elements.
It should be noted, finally, that this collection documents the lives of others as well. This is especially true of Green's wife, Elizabeth Lay Green. Series 4 consists of her files; it documents her own work as a writer and editor, her friendships, and events in the lives of relatives close and distant.
The Addition of April 2004 contains a card index and audiocassette recordings of plays, concerts, interviews, speeches, conferences, dedications, banquets, and other events related to Paul Green and others. The Addition of January 2006 consists of one mounted photograph of Thomas Wolfe, inscribed to Paul Green from Wolfe's sister Mabel, 1950. The Addition of January 2007 consists of three letters, 1918-1927, two of which were written by Paul Green to his father and to Florence Shaw of Asheville, N.C., and one of which was written by Mary Green to Florence Shaw. The Addition of July 2007 (Acc. 100735) includes materials possibly used by Laurence G. Avery in the publication of A Southern Life: Letters of Paul Green, 1916-1981. Some may be photocopies of material found elsewhere in the collection. Papers include correspondence, diary entries and Elizabeth Lay Green memoirs. The Addition of 2007 (Acc. 100736) includes checks, receipts, and other financial records. The Addition of January 2008 contains letters of Paul and Elizabeth Lay Green; Elizabeth Lay Green's memoirs; Paul Green's poetry journal; audiocassettes containing a 1994 radio story on the 100th birthday of Paul Green and a Soundings interview with Laurence G. Avery; and videotapes of an interview with Paul Green, a 1987 production of Listen to My Song, "Life as Art: A Tribute to Paul Green," and American Masters: Broadway Dreamers: The Legacy of the Group Theatre. The Addition of February 2009 is an audiocassette labelled "Paul Green conversation."
Back to TopArrangement: By year, then alphabetically by correspondent, subject, or event.
This series is available on microfilm.
These are Paul Green's central professional correspondence files. They were maintained year-by-year by Green and his assistants. They consist largely of correspondence, though other types of items--address lists, speeches, financial materials, newspaper clippings, etc.--also are included. The contents of these files are largely professional, though much personal material is included, usually filed by the name of the relative or friend involved.
Arrangement within each year, maintained as Green established it, is alphabetical, usually, but not always, by correspondent. Material not arranged alphabetically by correspondent includes the following: subject files related to specific organizations (e.g., Federal Theatre Project) or events (e.g., Scottsboro trial); files headed "property," which contain correspondence, bills, and other materials from repairmen, contractors, realtors, and others with whom Green dealt about the sale and maintenance of his property; and "request" files maintained in later years (requests for information about Green or for criticisms and recommendations, requests to produce, translate, or reprint his work, and requests that Green give talks or interviews or that he teach classes or judge contests).
Notes follow on significant correspondents and subjects represented in these files for each decade. Detailed folder lists are not included for this series since the index for this collection provides extensive access to it.
In addition to the correspondents noted below, letters from relatives are found throughout this series. Family correspondents include Green's wife, Elizabeth; the Greens' children, Paul Eliot Green, Jr., Nancy Byrd Green Cornwell, Elizabeth MacAllister Green Moyer, and Janet MacNeill Green Catlin, and their grandchildren; Paul Green's siblings, Daniel Hugh Green, Gladys Green Sylvester, Mary Green Johnson, Erma Green Gold, and Caro Mae Green Russell; Elizabeth Green's sisters, Virginia Lay Hawkins, Ellen Lay Hodgkinson, and Nancy Lay White; and Green's cousin, Buie Long, and nephew, William A.

Arrangement: alphabetically by title
Versions of one-act, and other short plays with notes and some correspondence relating to them. The arrangement of the material in this subseries was established largely by Green and his assistants. While most of these plays were never produced or published, some were. See also Related Collections.
Arrangement: one run alphabetical by the state in which the play was to be produced; a second run alphabetical by title.
Material concerning unfinished and abandoned works, including notes, correspondence, business material, and a small amount of music. These files, received at the Southern Historical Collection in boxes labeled Plays in Progress, are arranged in two different runs established by Green and his assistants. The alphabetical file by state (including files under Mexico) generally consists of outdoor drama proposals of the 1950s, 1960s, and 1970s. This file includes correspondence, notes, and a variety of business material. Researchers interested in these outdoor drama proposals may also wish to look at Subseries 5.6. The run of plays in alphabetical order generally consists of plays conceived by Green in the early part of his career, 1920s-1930s.
Drafts and other material relating to writing by Paul Green other than dramatic works. See also Subseries 5.2 (Student and Teaching Materials).
Note: Titles and remarks in quotes are from the manuscripts themselves or their original containers.

Background material, notes, and drafts relating to "Flora MacDonald," a projected novel by Paul Green (two short dramatic versions also are included) and to works titled "Mr. Mac" and "Cape Fear River Book," which were closely related to "Flora MacDonald."
(See also folder 3909.)
Arrangement: in two subseries as noted below.
Material received or collected by Elizabeth Lay Green, arranged in two subseries: Correspondence Files and Subject Files (almost altogether non-correspondence).
Arrangement: alphabetical by correspondent.
Chiefly letters to Elizabeth Lay Green from her parents, her four sisters and one brother, her four children, and her grandchildren, with a small number of letters from other relatives, friends, and acquaintances. Researchers should note that letters from Elizabeth Green to Paul Green, 1918-1977, are filed here, while letters from Paul to Elizabeth are filed in Series 1. Family bulletins written by Elizabeth, 1929-1983, are also included here. These provide a useful compendium of important events in the family: births, deaths, achievements, travels, health concerns, and Paul Green's professional activities. Another notable group of letters are those which Elizabeth Green sent to her parents from Germany in 1928 and 1929, commenting on life in the Weimar Republic.
In letters from individual family members, chief subjects are family and personal health and happiness, traveling, genealogy, and gardening. Researchers interested in Elizabeth Green's column "The Literary Lantern" may want to look at letters from Caro Mae Russell, who served as her assistant. There are few letters from the period from about 1918 to 1923 during which Elizabeth Green wrote plays for the Carolina Playmakers.
Materials relating to Elizabeth Green's children, Byrd Green Cornwell, Janet Green Catlin, Paul Green, Jr., and Betsy Green Moyer, such as articles, newspaper clippings, and musical programs, are included with correspondence under their names.
Note that family correspondence during Paul Green's trip to Greece and the USSR during the summer of 1962, is included in Series 8, under "G."

Arrangement: alphabetical by subject.
Files containing material relating to Paul Green, writings, Lay family genealogical material, musical programs, and many other interests and activities of Elizabeth Lay Green. These files, which apparently were largely maintained by Elizabeth Green, contain a wide variety of materials, and the researcher is encouraged to consult the folder list at the end of this description for detailed information.
Three of Mrs. Green's interests, her immediate family, genealogical material, and traveling, are documented in a number of folders about these subjects. She also assumed responsibility for the household, keeping files on social security payments for household employees as well as guest lists and entertainment costs. Two folders contain newspaper clippings concerning Paul Green. Although she was a longtime book reviewer, especially in her column called "The Literary Lantern," there is little material related to book reviewing here. Some of her published writings are here, however, as is some unpublished poetry.
In the mid-1970s, with help from her daughter, Janet Green Catlin, Elizabeth Green began to record her memoirs. Although these remain in the form of incomplete interviews with Janet Catlin, they provide some insight into how Elizabeth Green viewed her life. The interviews concentrate on Elizabeth Green's childhood and young adulthood. There are also diaries from 1920, circa 1928-1929, and 1949.
Miscellaneous files and other items not placed in Series 1 by Paul Green and his assistants, and not appropriate for other series in this collection. Arrangement is in eight subseries as noted below.
Arrangement: chronological by year; not arranged within folders.
Chiefly royalty statements from the agencies that handled Green's work. The largest number of statements is from Samuel French, Inc., of New York City, which handled the royalties for amateur and professional productions of Green's plays. After 1968, the French statements are quite detailed, often including lists of daily ticket sales and weather conditions at outdoor drama sites. There are also a considerable number of statements from Chappel and Company, Inc., of New York City, which seems to have handled Green's songs, and from the William Morris Agency of Beverly Hills, California, which, from 1939 to 1952, acted on Green's behalf in negotiations with movie and, later, with television producers. The Morris Agency also handled placement of short stories and articles in magazines and represented Green to book publishers.
Correspondence in this subseries is related to financial transactions and ideas aimed at fostering financial growth. For example, in 1953 and 1954, there are several letters in which Green expresses his desire to write for the fledgling television industry.
Tax returns and income summaries are present for most years, and there is also material, particularly in the early 1960s through 1976, relating to Green's real estate investments and timbering operations.

Notebooks and themes of Paul Green written when he was a student at the University of North Carolina, 1916-1917 and 1919-1921, and at Cornell University, 1922. The notebooks are chiefly from philosophy and English literature classes. (For student notebooks, see also Series 6, volumes 59 and 64.) Most of the themes were written for English classes at the University of North Carolina. Of particular interest is "Who I Am" (folder 4437), a theme written for English 1, in which Green discusses his childhood and his reasons for studying philosophy. Also included are teaching notes from Green's early tenure as professor at the University of North Carolina. (See also Subseries 3.3.)
Correspondence, writings by Green and by others, notes, and two subject files relating to specific cases involving capital punishment. The correspondence is largely between Green and other individuals and organizations, like North Carolinians Against the Death Penalty, with which he worked to abolish capital punishment. Green's writings consist of newspaper articles, chiefly from the 1960s, and typed essays in which Green stated his position on capital punishment and urged others to join them. Printed material consists of articles and papers authored by others on both sides of the controversy, as well as news items charting the progress of the capital punishment debate. Materials on the Robert Lee Case Appeal Fund and the Marion Frank Crawford Fund document Green's activities in support of two men involved in appealing death sentences. (See also Series 1, and Series 8 under "C.")

Correspondence, writings, and other materials relating to the tour made by Paul and Elizabeth Green from 1 October 1951 to 12 January 1952. The trip was sponsored by the University of North Carolina, with funding provided by the General Education Board of the Rockefeller Foundation. The Greens spent most of their time in Japan, the Philippines, Indonesia, Thailand, Burma, Ceylon, and India(for a complete itinerary, see World-Wide Travel Service letter of 29 September 1951).
The primary purpose of the tour was for Green to study, through observation and discussions with prominent scholars, the drama and theater of several countries. He also, however, presented talks on American drama and administered a Rockefeller Foundation program that distributed books on American dramatic arts to several Far Eastern university libraries. In addition, Green represented the United States National Commission for UNESCO, seeking out members of other national UNESCO commissions and encouraging them to take more active roles in the organization. He also met with political leaders in several countries for discussions on world peace.
Notable correspondents in this subseries are: Joshua Logan; Shigetoshi Kawatake, director of the Tsubouchi Memorial Theatre Museum at Waseda University in Tokyo; M. L. Pin Malakul, Undersecretary of State for Education in Thailand; Sarvepalli Radhakrishnan, Indian ambassador to the Soviet Union; and Sir Evelyn Wrench of the English Speaking Union. Much of the Rockefeller Foundation correspondence is with Charles B. Fahs, Director of the Humanities Division. Letters in October 1951 give detailed reports of Green's activities. Also filed with the Rockefeller Foundation correspondence is Green's final report on his trip.
Writings include newspaper articles and typed essays on subjects ranging from kabuki theater to political tensions in the Far East. Many of these writings were produced by Green en route and published in the New York Times or Theatre Arts, or distributed through the University of North Carolina News Bureau to national and local newspapers. (See also Volume 16 in Series 6.)

Correspondence, writings, and other materials relating to outdoor drama. The correspondence is with communities from Orono, Maine, to Walla Walla, Washington, that consulted with Green about their plans to mount outdoor dramas about local historical events. The writings are short essays by Green dealing with financial and other aspects of producing outdoor dramas. There is also a copy of Samuel Selden's "Producing America's Outdoor Dramas," to which Green contributed. Printed material consists of playbills and other items from outdoor dramas not connected with Green, and clippings on outdoor drama in general. Also included are materials relating to the design and acoustical properties of outdoor theaters. (For material relating to particular outdoor dramas that Green actually worked on, see Series 2.)

Correspondence, writings, and other material relating to Mary Lee McMillan's work on a biography of Helena Paderewska (d. 1934), wife of pianist Ignacy Jan Paderewski (1860-1941). Around 1917, McMillan, a South Carolina native, started working for Madame Paderewska in New York City, assisting in her work with Polish refugees. During this time, I. J. Paderewski was premier of Poland. McMillan and Madame Paderewska remained friends after Paderewski resigned as premier, and McMillan married and moved to Raleigh, North Carolina.
McMillan and Paul Green seem to have worked together on several community projects. In 1960, McMillan wrote to Green, asking him to review the manuscript of her book on Madame Paderewska. The book was published as "My Helenka" (co-authored by Ruth Dorval Jones) in 1972. Sometime in 1974, Green requested that McMillan allow him to see her notes on this project. She apparently granted this request, and the materials subsequently became part of Green's papers.
The correspondence in this subseries is chiefly carbon copies of typed transcriptions of letters from Helena Paderewska to Mary McMillan, although there are a few original letters from Paderewska and others. The writings are fragments of the manuscript of the biography. The notes include some recipes, many of which may have been Madame Paderewska's. Programs for Paderewski's performances, a copy of his "Remarks on Poland," and other material related to Paderewski and Poland are filed in Miscellaneous Items. Pictures consist of one original photograph of Helena Paderewska and several copies and photocopies of photographs relating to the Paderewskis and to Poland.

About 375 items.
These files have been maintained largely as they were established by Paul Green. He referred to them as "Source Material," though this designation was interpreted very broadly. Material here includes items collected during research for essays, articles, lectures, and plays; miscellaneous items and novelties; notes, records, and correspondence relating to Green's interest in social and political issues such as capital punishment, the Vietnam War, and race relations. Some critical and bibilographical works by other authors relating to Green's writing, and some family correspondence from Green's trip to the USSR and Greece during the summer of 1962, are also included. folders are arranged in alphabetical groups by title or subject, as they were maintained and organized by Paul Green.
