Du Bois Institute for Afro-American Research and the Arthur and Elizabeth Schlesinger Library on the History of Women in America have acquired the papers of Shirley Graham Du Bois (1896-1977). An influential artist and activist, Graham Du Bois was the second wife of the renowned African-American intellectual leader W.E.B. Du Bois. The collection includes Graham Du Boiss personal correspondence, private papers, professional work, and photographs. It documents her dynamic and diverse life - as composer, playwright, biographer, teacher, civil rights champion, proto-feminist, American Communist Party member, participant in the African liberation struggles, proponent of Maoist China, and longtime friend, then beloved spouse of W.E.B. Du Bois during his last 12 years. Purchased by an anonymous donor for the Du Bois Institute and the Radcliffe Institute for Advanced Study, the Shirley Graham Du Bois collection will be housed at the Schlesinger Library at Radcliffe.https://dev.news.harvard.edu/gazette/wp-content/uploads/2001/02/13-dubois2-450-11.jpg
