Description: The Assembled Playwright exhibition presents highlights from the Harley Hammerman Collection on Eugene O’Neill. The exhibition includes manuscripts, correspondence, photographs, playbills, posters, inscribed books, and other unique and rare materials by and pertinent to the Nobel Prize-winning playwright.

This exhibition was curated by Modern Literature Collection and Manuscripts Curator Joel Minor. It is organized into seven sections, the first of which focuses on Harley Hammerman and his collection, with the remainder on chronological phases of O'Neill's life and work.
