Condition: Near Fine. An important archive of letters by Pat Conroy, author of *The Water is Wide*, *The Great Santini*, *The Lords of Discipline*, and *The Prince of Tides*; all four of which were made into award winning Hollywood films. The letters were written to the American playwright George Sklar and his wife Miriam Blecher Sklar, a noted modern dancer and choreographer, including their children Zachary, Daniel, and Judith. George Sklar was a leading figure in the theater of social protest during the Depression and was blacklisted in 1949. The collection consists of 11 substantial long letters by Pat Conroy (all but one handwritten in ink); together with two Post Cards, a short holograph manuscript and autograph note also by Conroy, and three letters each by Barbara and Carol Conroy. (A total of 21 items dating from 1971-88). Also included is a significant four-page draft of a 1971 letter by George Sklar (giving advice to Conroy about his manuscript *The Water is Wide*), and a final two-page computer printout of a 2016 letter by Zachary Sklar, written to Conroy just one month before his death in March of that year. One letter is lightly age toned with a few short tears, else near fine. It was Zachary, a college student in 1969, who first met Pat Conroy on Daufuskie Island, South Carolina, when Conroy was teaching the island's predominantly African American Gullah children in a one-room schoolhouse. (Conroy was called āConrack' by most of the students). The two became fast friends and Conroy thereafter became lifelong friends with George, Miriam, and the entire Sklar family, as vividly documented throughout the letters. Here for example in a letter to George Sklar from 1980, Conroy writes: ". I love you and I love our times together, our talks, our memories . This is what you are to me - the first artist I ever met, the committed artist, the humane man whose writing was a shout from the heart. I chose you as a model when I was 26 and you've remained my model. I am trying to be an artist the way you are an artist ." And in a letter to Miriam from 1977, he writes: ". when I heard . that you were sick, I wondered what kind of special grace you would bring to sickness, what movements would spring out of you to translate your illness into something iridescent, beautiful beyond the realm of words, but I knew the translation would come from the courage and the poetry that is the dance, the courage and the poetry that has been your life ." The letters begin in May 1971 with a bawdy letter from Conroy to Zach: ". Henry Ford, that assembly-lining son of a bitch, has consented to train me in the subtle art of southern leadership for a full year. I got the fucking thing [Ford Foundation Fellowship] . I would have called to brag, strut, and fart over the phone but thought you would merely remind me of my day at Fort Jackson to restore me to a state of pure humility. San Francisco will feel my young ass planted on her grasses soon and will know my walk . My penis, once young and supple, but wrinkled and withered of late, bounced to joyous life, yea verily, like a resurrected serpent when the letter from Henry arrived. Jessica, Melissa, and Megan clapped their vaginas in gratitude . Julian Bach [Conroy's literary agent] sends manuscript [*The Water is Wide*] to Houghton Mifflin this week for perusal - he is asking $7300 advance and believes we will get it. A pittance, I say ." The letters contain much content relating both to the writing and film adaptations of Conroy's best loved novels. In a letter from 1972 he discusses the public outcry against *The Water is Wide*, and outlines his ideas for the novel that would become *The Great Santini*: ". I told Zach on the phone that this first novel is going to be a very crucial one and a work that I would prefer to do right, without the symphonic excesses which usually plague me . the working title of this proposed masterpiece is *The Children of the Fighter Pilot* and if it sounds a tad bit autobiographical I w.
