Scope and Contents

This series consists of biographical materials on Nina Rosenblum such as family and personal photographs, personal correspondence, and daily planners. There are materials related to Rosenblum's parents, Naomi and Walter Rosenblum, including video recordings of lectures and award ceremonies, writing samples, correspondence, photographs, recorded interviews, interview transcripts, and an oral history transcript. More recent exhibition materials (2005-2018), such as correspondence, video recordings, and installation photographs, of Walter Rosenblum's work are included. These materials reflect the influence that her parents' work had on Rosenblum's work. Also included are materials created by Rosenblum's husband and frequent collaborator, Daniel Allentuck, such as a journal and video demo. Recordings of memorial services, possibly of friends or family members, are included as well. This series also contains materials related to the Rosenblum Photo Archive (now, the Rosenblum Photography Collection), overseen by Naomi and Nina Rosenblum. The archive includes works by Walter Rosenblum, Paul Strand, and others.
