scopecontent: Scope and Contents of the Collection The Frances Perkins Papers contain correspondence, course records, writings, financial records, notes and memoranda, memorabilia, biographical information, and photographs. The most extensive part of the collection consists of notes and notebooks, compositions, student papers, textbooks, assignments, examinations, and other records for courses that Perkins took as a student at Mount Holyoke College, 1898-1902. This material reflects her study of art history, astronomy, the Bible, botany, chemistry, English, English literature, the German language, history, Latin, "pedagogy" (education), "philosophy" (ethics, logic, and psychology), physics, "political economy" (sociology), and zoology. Of particular significance are notes and reports on visits to factories in Massachusetts and Connecticut that Perkins prepared for two political economy classes taught by Annah May Soule. Perkins' course records also include a high school Latin paper, Mount Holyoke catalogues and an entrance examination, and her plans for her course work. Correspondence in the collection dates from 1898-1903 and 1914 and primarily consists of letters written to Perkins by relatives and friends. One letter from her father, dated June 2, 1902, discusses her finances and commencement plans. The other letters are mostly from friends including Mary Alice Bradford, Florence E. Locke, Mary E. Lyman, Kate E. Paterson Ross, Eva Gay Stewart, Alice Bidwell Wesenberg, and other Mount Holyoke students and alumnae. These letters reflect the close friendship among these women and discuss College events (such as Senior Mountain Day) and summer and post-graduation activities. The writings by Perkins include articles, letters to the editor, pamphlets, speeches, and copies of her books "People At Work" (1934) and "The Roosevelt I Knew" (1946). Most of her writings date 1930-1945 and concern labor-related issues such as the problems facing working women and older workers. Financial re…

body: Biographical Note Frances Perkins was born on April 10, 1880 (some sources say 1882) in Boston, Massachusetts. She was christened Fannie Coralie Perkins but later changed her name to Frances. She was the daughter of Frederick W. Perkins, the owner of a stationer's business, and Susan Bean Perkins. The family moved to Worcester, Massachusetts in 1882. After attending Worcester Classical High School, Perkins entered Mount Holyoke College in 1898. She was president of her class and majored in chemistry and physics, receiving her B.A. degree in 1902. She became interested in labor issues after studying working conditions in Massachusetts and Connecticut factories for two political economy courses taught by Annah May Soule. After graduation, Perkins taught at Monson Academy in Massachusetts and at the Ferry Hall School in Lake Forest, Illinois. In 1907 she became the General Secretary of the Philadelphia Research and Protective Association. During her time in Philadelphia she joined the Socialist Party and took classes at the University of Pennsylvania. In 1909 she received a fellowship from the Russell Sage Foundation and earned her M.A. in economics and sociology from Columbia University. From 1910-1912 Perkins served as Secretary of the New York Consumers' League and taught at Adelphi College. She worked for industrial reform, women's suffrage, and the passage of a fifty-four hour work week bill in the New York legislature. After witnessing the Triangle Shirtwaist Company fire of 1911 in which 146 workers died, Perkins took a position with the Committee on Safety of the City of New York and worked there until 1915. On September 26, 1913 she married Paul Caldwell Wilson, an economist for the Bureau of Municipal Research in New York. During the 1920s Wilson suffered increasingly mental illness. From 1930 until his death in 1952 he spent most of his time in institutions. The couple had two children; the first died in infancy and the second was a daughter born in 1916 nam…

scopecontent: This series consists of a variety of documents that chiefly reflect Perkins' academic work as a student at Mount Holyoke College from 1898 to 1902. The material includes class notes and notebooks, compositions and other student papers, textbooks used for courses, assignments with teachers' comments, and examinations. Most of the material relates to courses in chemistry, English, English literature, history, physics, and "political economy" (sociology). There are also records for courses in art history, astronomy, Biblical literature, botany, German, Latin, "pedagogy" (education), "philosophy" (ethics, logic, and psychology), and zoology. Of particular significance are records for two courses in political economy that Perkins took in 1900/01 and 1901/02. These classes, taught by Annah May Soule, sparked her interest in labor issues. The first course, entitled "History of Industrial Society in England and the United States," was intended to prepare students "for the study of labor and social problems." The notes for this course are about legislation regarding industry and Industrial Revolution and pauperism. The second course, entitled "Elements of Political Economy," provided students with "a knowledge of the main principles of economic theory" and required them to visit factories and make reports of their findings. The records for this course include notebooks and notes reflecting Perkins' visits to several factories in Massachusetts and Connecticut. These notes concern the organization, financial conditions, and workers of each factory and include information about labor disputes and working conditions. This series also includes Perkins' copies of Mount Holyoke catalogues for 1898/99, 1899/1900, and 1901/02 that contain notes reflecting her plans for her course work. The catalogue for 1901/02 has notes of where many students (probably her friends) lived on campus. The course records also include a paper that Perkins wrote for a high school Latin course and a Mount …

scopecontent: This series consists of articles, letters to the editor, pamphlets, speeches, and a book by Perkins dating from 1925 to 1946 and 1957. Most of Perkins' writings date from 1930 to 1945 and concern labor issues, including the impact of the economic depression and World War II, the need for unemployment insurance and retirement pensions, unemployment, and the problems of workers. Several of the articles discuss the situation of women workers and the controversy about whether not they should hold jobs during the economic depression of the 1930s. Of particular note is an article from "The New York Times Magazine," dated March 13, 1938, discussing the plight of older workers. One of Perkins' speeches, given on March 27, 1939, is entitled "The International Labor Organization as an Agency of Democracy." There is a lengthy statement about absenteeism that Perkins delivered to the Committee on Labor in the House of Representatives in March, 1943. This series also includes copies of Perkins' books "People At Work" (1934) and "The Roosevelt I Knew" (1946).

scopecontent: The material in this series dates from 1901 to 1965. Some of this material reflects Perkins' connection to Mount Holyoke College.

scopecontent: The documents in this series date from circa 1911 to 1965 and consists of notes, sketches, magazine articles, and newspaper clippings about Perkins. Many of the articles and clippings are photocopies of the original items and these copies are arranged on numbered sheets in roughly chronological order. The material relates primarily to Perkins' professional life. Some of the biographical information concerns her work for the New York Industrial Commission from 1919 to 1929, but most of the material relates to her service as United States Secretary of Labor from 1933-1945. This material reflects reactions to her appointment and describes her views on child labor, the length of the work day, continuing education for married women, a minimum wage for women workers, social security, unemployment insurance, the best use of leisure time, and similar issues. Several articles express opinions about Perkins' ability as Secretary of Labor. For example, one article, "Fearless Frances," published in "Colliers" on July 28, 1934, calls her "the best man in the Cabinet." Another article, "The Unpopular Mme. Perkins," from the Boston "Herald" of March 6, 1938, says that "one would have to look hard to find a more unpopular government official." An article from the "Saturday Evening Post," dated July 27, 1940, is entitled "Madame Secretary: A Study in Bewilderment" and discusses Perkins' "political ineptitude." An article entitled "She Wears a Hat for 16 Hours a Day" from the January 31, 1937, London (England) "The Sunday Express," refers to Perkins as the "Fighting Schoolma'am Cabinet Minister." Two newspaper clippings from April, 1936, discuss the rumors that Perkins was a "Russian Jew." The series also contains reviews of her books, "People at Work" (1934) and "The Roosevelt I Knew" (1946). There are also articles about Perkins' visits to Mount Holyoke College. Very little biographical material relates to her personal life, except for a wedding announcement for her daughter, Susan…
