Expand/collapse Biographical Information

Diane Di Prima was born on 6 August 1934 in Brooklyn, N.Y. She attended Swarthmore College, but dropped out in 1953 to move to Manhattan and become a writer. In the late 1950s and early 1960s, she joined the emerging Beat movement. She was the editor of the newsletter The Floating Bear with LeRoi Jones, 1961-1969. In 1966, she moved to Millbrook, N.Y., to live in Timothy Leary's community. She moved to San Francisco, Calif., in 1968. In California, she taught at such institutions as the New College of California and the California College of Arts and Crafts. She also taught at Naropa University, specifically in the Jack Kerouac School of Disembodied Poetics. Her works include her fictionalized memoir Memoirs of a Beatnik (1968), the long poem Loba (1998), and the book Recollections of My Life as a Woman: The New York Years (2001), as well as many other short and long pieces, chiefly poems.

Expand/collapse Series 1. Correspondence and Related Materials, 1962-2008.

About 13,000 items.

Correspondents include Diane Di Prima's friends, family, students, editors, and publishers. Topics include Di Prima's writings, comments on works submitted for editing by Di Prima, family activities, and Di Prima's health, among other matters. Correspondence is primarily incoming though in many cases there are copies of Di Prima's outgoing letters. Extensive, original correspondence from Di Prima can be found in the files for Dominique Di Prima, Maria Mazziotti Gillan, Maude Meehan, and Robert Wilson. There is also a brief postcard from Ezra Pound posted from Washington, D.C. possibly dated September 1955.

Note that correspondence relating to particular writings may be filed with those writings in Series 3.

Arrangement: Alphabetical by correspondent. Where a last name could not be determined, correspondence is filed by the first letter of the first name. Unidentified correspondents, form letters and mailings from Diane Di Prima, notes and other materials generated by her and collected with correspondence are filed after the alphabetic run. Correspondence between Diane Di Prima and her children is filed in two places: when a recipient could be determined the correspondence is filed by the correspondent's name in the alphabetic run, when the recipient(s) are unidentified, the correspondence is filed after the alphabetic run.

Acquisition information: Addition of April 2004 unless otherwise indicated.

Processing information: The arrangement of the correspondence as it was received at the repository in 2004 is unknown. Groups of letters from Diane Di Prima to Domnique Di Prima, to Maria Mazziotti Gillan, and to Maude Meehan were purchased by the repository from 2005 to 2008. In 2010, the 2004 acquistion and the subsequent 2005-2008 aquisitions were arranged into loose chronological order. During fall and winter of 2016, all extant correspondence was rearranged into alphabetical order by correspondent. Two additional purchases of letters from Di Prima to Robert Wilson, acquired in 2014 and 2015, were incorporated into the existing Robert Wilson correspondence file.
