This collection is open for research.
Better known by his pseudonym Anthony Boucher, White was born in Oakland, California,
the only child of two physicians. He attended college in Southern California,
graduating from the University of Southern California in 1932, then obtained an M.A.
in German from the University of California at Berkeley. He initially planned to
teach languages but turned to writing plays. Eventually he moved on to writing for
newspapers, as theater and music critic for the Los Angeles based United Progressive
News.
After settling in Berkeley with his wife Phyllis, White successively—sometimes
simultaneously—served as mystery book editor for the
San
Francisco Chronicle,
contributor and reviewer for
Ellery Queen's Mystery Magazine, creator, writer and announcer of
"Golden Voices," radio KPFA, Berkeley, fantasy reviewer for the
Chicago Sun-Times and
New York
Herald Tribune
(the latter under another pseudonym, H. H. Holmes),
mystery reviewer for the
New York Times Book Review,
editor for
True Crime Detective, and reviewer for
Opera News. He won the Edgar Award three times for
excellence in criticism. Additionally, White authored eight books of mystery or
science fiction (two of them as H. H. Holmes), compiled
The
Pocket Book of True Crime Stories
(1941), and edited
Great American Detective Stories (1945),
Four and Twenty Bloodhounds (1950), the annual volumes of
The Best from Fantasy and Science Fiction
(1952-1959),
and Best Detective Stories of the Year
(1963 and 1964).
Perhaps White's most enduring contribution to science fiction and fantasy writing was
the founding in 1949 of the
Magazine of Fantasy and Science
Fiction
with his friend J. Francis McComas. The two co-edited the
magazine until McComas' resignation in 1954 to concentrate on his own writing. White
resigned in 1958 after disagreements with the publishers, though he continued to
write book reviews for the magazine. Other activities in White's career include:
translator of detective and science fiction from French, Spanish, and Portuguese
into English (he was an early translator of Jorge Louis Borge); writer of the
Canadian Broadcasting Company's radio series' "Sherlock Holmes" and "Gregory Hood,"
1945-1948; consultant for the television series "Checkmate"; and informal advisor
and reference librarian to hundreds of writers, readers, and publishers in the
fields of mystery and fantasy fiction. A most noteworthy posthumous recognition of
his many contributions was the naming of the annual mystery fiction conventions as
"Bouchercons" in 1969.
The collection is organized into the following series: I. Correspondence; II.
Writings; III. Memorabilia and Other Materials.
The correspondence files are arranged alphabetically and include letters from
writers, publishers, editors, friends and family, as well as considerable fan mail.
Many of the letters are accompanied by carbon copies of White's replies. Some
letters are in Spanish and French, with a small amount in German and Russian.
Correspondents include: Forrest J. Ackerman, Eric Ambler, Kingsley Amis, Poul
Anderson, H. Richard Archer, Charlotte Armstrong, Robert Arthur, Isaac Asimov,
Michael Avallone, Samm Sinclair Baker, William Stuart Baring-Gould, Jacques Barzun,

Writings in the collection include: manuscripts of his novels; published and
unpublished articles and short stories; plays and screenplays; reviews; radio and
television scripts; opera program scripts; tear sheets and galleys for anthologies;
manuscripts of introductions to books and articles; translations; and miscellaneous
writings such as limericks, puzzles, and poetry. Also included are juvenilia and
college writings. In 1962, Boucher interviewed a group of science fiction writers
for a roundtable discussion to be published in
Playboy
Magazine.
Papers relating to these interviews, including transcripts,
correspondence, and even reel to reel tape recordings of phone interviews are
included with the writings. This series also includes extensive clippings Boucher
saved of his reviews and of reviews of his novels.
Included in Memorabilia are photographs, scrapbooks of review clippings, some
financial records, printed tributes to Boucher following his death, and general
family and personal records. Other materials include ephemera from the annual
Bouchercons since 1969.
