Assia Rubinstein correspondence, 1920s-1950s

File — Box: 4 (160626)

Scope and Contents

From the Collection:

The major bulk of material from the Andre Visson papers dates from Visson's arrival in the United States in 1940. The papers are of particular interest in chronicling world events and in tracing the development of journalism from the beginning of the Second World War through the Cold War years. In each of these cases, Visson brought a unique perspective as a native of Russia who adopted the United States as his home. The role of the American press in articulating the course of the Cold War and the growth of Reader's Digest as a major periodical which became the voice of American culture and values is of particular interest in the papers.
