Biographical Note
Alix Kates Shulman (given name Alix Audrey Kates)
was born in Cleveland, Ohio in 1932 to Dorothy Davis Kates
and Samuel Kates. Raised in suburban Cleveland Heights, she
graduated from Case Western Reserve University in 1953 with
a degree in English and History. She moved to New York City
after college and began graduate studies at Columbia
University where she met and married fellow graduate
student Marcus Klein in 1954. After marriage she began a
series of research, editorial and writing jobs. She and
Klein were divorced in 1958, and she then married Martin
Shulman in 1959. She gave birth to her son Ted in 1961 and
to her daughter Polly in 1963.
Shulman became involved in the early women's
liberation movement groups in New York City in the late
1960s. She participated in the famed Miss America Pageant
Protest in Atlantic City in 1968, was an early member of
the groups
"Redstockings"
and
"WITCH"
in 1969, and joined the
"New York Radical Women"
in
1970. At approximately the same time she became active in
the women's liberation movement, Shulman began her literary
career, publishing articles in both feminist and mainstream
periodicals, and publishing a number of children's books
and non-fiction books about Emma Goldman. She and Martin
Shulman drafted a
"Marriage Agreement"
which was published in the feminist journal
Up From Under in 1970.
The
"Agreement"
was
re-printed with accompanying articles in
Redbook (in 1971) and
then in
Life (1972). Due to
these re-printings, the
"Agreement"
received
much press and raised much controversy. It was attacked by,
among others, Norman Mailer and Russell Baker. Also in
1972, Shulman published her first major (and
semi-autobiographical) novel,
Memoirs of an Ex-Prom
Queen.Memoirs became a
national best seller, raised much debate about the growing
feminist movement and the situation of women in U.S.
society, and launched Shulman's writing career on a
national level.
Throughout the 1970s, 1980s, and 1990s, Shulman
continued to work as a feminist activist, to write essays
and short stories for a wide variety of journals and
newspapers, to teach and present speeches and conference
papers, and to publish novels and memoirs. She divorced
Martin Shulman in 1985 and married former Cleveland Heights
High School classmate Scott York in 1989. Her two most
recently published books are
Drinking the Rain
(1995), an account of her solitary, non-technological life
on a Maine island, and
A Good Enough Daughter
(1999), a memoir focusing on her relationships with her
late parents. She received an honorary doctorate of Humane
Letters from Case Western Reserve University in 2001.

Collection Overview
The materials in the Alix Kates Shulman Papers
span the dates 1892 to 2000, with the bulk of materials
dating from 1968 to 2000. These materials include:
manuscripts, notes, clippings, published books,
correspondence, photographs, audio and videotapes,
microfilm, address and date books, family and business
records. The primary focus of the collection is Shulman's
writing and literary career. The secondary focus is the
women's liberation and feminist movements, in which Shulman
was and continues to be very active (from 1968 to the
present). However, feminism and feminist activism are
inextricably intertwined with Shulman's writing career, and
her 1972 novel
Memoirs of an Ex-Prom
Queen is regarded by many as the first novel to
"come out of"
the women's
liberation movement of the late 1960s and early 1970s.
Other topics covered by the collection include:
her teaching and other academic work; her public speaking
and conference activities; and her involvement in political
activities besides feminism. This collection sheds valuable
light on the concerns and tensions within the women's
liberation and second-wave feminist movements. In
particular, the materials document debates and
disagreements among those active in the movement with
regard to sexuality, marriage and domestic relations,
women's financial situation and careers, health care, civil
rights and cultural expression. Many of these issues are
raised in Shulman's own work, including her novels, essays,
short fiction, personal letters and her teaching
materials.
The collection is divided into seven series. The
Personal Papers Series contains
Shulman's family history papers, photographs, biographical
papers, and her personal correspondence (with writers,
academics, political activists and family members). Notable correspondents include Ros Baxandall, Jay
Bolotin, Kay Boyle, Rita Mae Brown, Phyllis Chesler, Judy Chicago, Andrea
Dworkin, Candace Falk, Marilyn French, Lori Ginzberg,
Hannah Green, Erica Jong, Kate Millett, Honor Moore, Robin Morgan, Tillie
Olson, Lillian Rubin, Sue Standing, and Meredith Tax. The
Political Work Series contains
material relating to Shulman's involvement with feminist
and other liberal political groups, including Redstockings,
New York Radical Women, the PEN Women's Committee, No More
Nice Girls, the Women's Action Coalition, and Women Against
Government Surveillance
The Literary Work
Series contains a variety of materials relating to
Shulman's literary career, including financial and other
dealings with publishing houses, notes and research,
photocopies of publications, reviews of her work, articles
and notes she collected regarding the literary scene, and
original manuscripts. This series contains information
about her early children's books; several books she edited
of Emma Goldman's writings; her essays and short fiction;
her novels
Memoirs of an Ex-Prom
Queen (1972),
Burning Questions
(1975),
On the Stroll (1977),
In Every Woman's Life . . .
(1980); and her memoirs
Drinking the Rain
(1995) and
A Good Enough Daughter
(1999). A small amount of correspondence regarding book reviews of other authors' work is also included.
The Academic Work
Series contains materials relating to Shulman's
graduate work at NYU; her teaching at Yale, the University
of Colorado at Boulder, NYU, and the University of Hawaii
at Manoa; as well as her relationships with her students.
The Public Speaking Series
contains materials relating to Shulman's participation in
literary and political conferences and gatherings, personal
interviews, lectures and book talks.
Portions of the Restricted
Materials Series either may not be photocopied
without prior permission of Ms. Shulman or the relevant
author, or may not be accessed until a future date. The
same organizational categories have been applied to the
restricted materials as were used in the unrestricted
materials to help researchers easily access overlapping and
related materials that have been boxed separately due to
the restrictions. The Oversize
Materials Series contains miscellaneous oversize
materials of a biographical and literary nature.
Acquired as part of the Sallie Bingham Center for
Women's History and Culture.

Restricted Series
The Restricted Series contains three
categories of restricted materials:
1. Materials which cannot be photocopied nor
electronically scanned without the permission of Alix Kates
Shulman or the author of the material.
2. Materials which cannot be read without
the permission of Alix Kates Shulman.
3. Materials which cannot be opened until
2023, the death of Alix Kates Shulman, or the death of the
author, whichever comes last.
Each of these restrictions comprises its own
subseries. Additionally, the attempt has been made to
recreate as closely as possible the same organization
within these restricted subseries as was used in the
unrestricted materials, so to facilitate researchers' use
of overlapping and related materials--especially those
under Restriction 1. Thus, each series contains
sub-subseries such as
"Personal
Papers,"
"Political Work,"
"Literary Work,"
"Academic Work,"
and
"Public Speaking."
Folders are
arranged alphabetically by the title Shulman assigned
within each subseries.
