Don Freeman (1908-1978) was an American painter, printmaker, cartoonist, children's book author, and illustrator. Freeman is perhaps best known for the Corduroy books about the toy bear and for Norman the Doorman, the tale of a mouse who works as a doorman at a New York City art museum but longs to be an artist himself.
Born in San Diego, Freeman studied briefly at the San Diego School of Fine Arts and then at the Art Students League in New York, where he filled dozens of sketch books with drawings of New York characters, focusing particularly on Broadway and the theatre. His cartoons appeared in magazines and newspapers, among them the New York Times and Herald Tribune. After William Saroyan asked him to illustrate several children's books, Don began writing and illustrating his own work, which soon became his full-time occupation.
"I love the flow of turning the pages, the suspense of what's next. Ideas just come at me and after me. It's all so natural. I work all the time, long into the night, and it's such a pleasure. I don't know when the time ends. I've never been happier in my life!" [Penguin Books author page for Don Freeman]
Freeman's wife, Lydia, was also an artist and collaborated with him on two of his books, Pet of the Met and Chuggy and the Blue Caboose. In addition to writing and illustrating children's books, Freeman was widely known for imaginative, illustrated chalk-talks, some with musical accompaniment.
The Don Freeman Papers consists primarily of artwork relating to Freeman's books, with a small amount of miscellany.
Books contains material related to 23 of Freeman's books, including Chuggy and the Blue Caboose, Cyrano the Crow, Norman the Doorman, and Space Witch. Types of material include original illustrations, rough sketches, cover layouts, dummy books, printers' proofs, acetates, and published books.
Miscellaneous contains a poster encouraging reading.
