Abstract

Ed Smith was a poet, active in the 1980's in the scene centered around the Beyond Baroque/Literary Arts Center in Los Angeles. His papers cover the period 1978-2005, when Smith lived in Los Angeles and New York City. The materials include, but are not limited to, journals, notebooks, correspondence, drafts, manuscripts, flyers, photographs, monographs and periodicals.

Biographical Note

Ed Smith was born in Downey, California in 1957. He attended Pomona College in Claremont, California for one academic year (1975-76), before making his way to Los Angeles. He worked as a paralegal and for an independent record and video company, became interested in the punk scene, and then found his calling as a poet in the scene centered around the Beyond Baroque Literary/Arts Center in the 1980's. He published two collections of poetry, Fantasyworld (Venice, CA, Cold Calm Press, 1983)and Tim's Bunnies (Los Angeles, Cold Calm Press, 1988). His poems also appear in the collection Poetry Loves Poetry (Santa Monica, Momentum Press, 1985), and in various magazines. He practiced some journalism, writing articles and doing interviews for the magazine Shiny, of which he was also West Coast Editor, and for the L.A. Reader. To make ends meet, he worked as a typesetter, a movie ad copywriter, and as a math tutor at a private school. His friends and associates in the poetry scene included Dennis Cooper, Bob Flanagan. Other friends well represented by his papers include poets Amy Gerstler, Steven Hall, and Celia Pearce, musician Ingrid Baumgart, and video and performance artist Skip Arnold. He lived for periods of time with the latter two. After moving to New York City in the late 1990s and marrying artist Mio Shirai, Smith devoted himself to a business venture, CSAI, a consulting firm helping companies apply W. Edwards Demming's principles of emergent intelligence to their organizations.

Arrangement

Ed Smith maintained his own combined subject and correspondence files, which he kept in folders arranged alphabetically, occasionally by first name, more often by last name, and by subject. His original arrangement has been kept in Series II. Where no folders existed for loose materials, new subject or correspondence files were created and interfiled with Smith's. Folders that were not part of Smith's arrangement scheme are indicated by brackets around the title.

Materials are arranged chronologically within the folders, except in the [flyers] folder wherein the mostly undated material is arranged by venue.

  1. Series I: Journals/Notebooks
  2. Series II: Correspondence and Subject Series
  3. Series III: Drafts, Production Materials, Final Published Work
  4. Series IV: Printed Matierals

Series II: Correspondence and Subject Series

Scope and Contents note

This series consists of interfiled correspondence folders and subject folders, arranged alphabetically by correspondent or subject, and chronologically within the folders. Ed Smith's original arrangement has been kept, and thus alphebetization is occasionally by first name, more often by last name, and by subject. Where no folders existed for loose materials, new subject or correspondence files were created and interfiled with Smith's. Folders that were not part of Smith's arrangement scheme are indicated by brackets around the title. The folders contain correspondence, flyers, photographs, and ephemera.
