‎Small Archive of Letters from the Oscar-Winning Director of “Marty†on Professional and Civil War Matters‎

‎<p><b>MANN DELBERT.</b>1920-2007. Academy Award-winning American film director. Archive of eight letters. <i>"Delbert Mann" "Del Man" & "Del"</i>. 8pp. Miscellaneous formats. New York Garden City Los Angeles Culver City Shepperton. May 18 1952-September 8 1990. On his personal stationery letterhead of Philco Television Playhouse National Broadcasting Company The Civil War Roundtable and illustrated letterhead for <i>Mister Buddwing </i>and<i> All Quiet on the Western Front. </i>To notable Civil War scholar author and collector<b>ARNOLD F. GATES </b>1914-1993.</p><p><i>"My main interest in the Civil War period is the Confederacy its generals and its strategy. Particularly as a hangover from spending part of my youth in Virginia the Virginia campaigns and Generals Lee and Jackson. This is not an exclusive interest however for I am not a 'specialist' and any phase of the period interests me. My interest began in childhood but only within the past year and a half has it really become my hobby. I have done no writing on the subject. Am particularly interested in collecting books on the field and in visiting the various battlefields and making as intensive a study of each as I can. I had ancestors on both sides. My great grandfather on my father's side fought with the 11th Michigan through Tennessee. My mother's father had a brother in each army one being captured at Vicksburg. The family lived in East Tennessee and evidently was as divided in its loyalties as that section was generally. I would like to obtain photographs of the battlefields in their present state hoping to make a collection of them eventually." </i>May 18 1952</p><p>"<i>As to the script that you referred to: I am not in a position to do anything about it at the present time nor can I think of someone who might either have a specific interest in this material or be in a position to use it. However let me think further and if I can make some few inquiries I will do so and let you know." </i>November 9 1965</p><p>On illustrated <i>All Quiet on the Western Front</i> illustrated letterhead: "<i>Your letter followed me to Czechoslovakia and back!. Nothing further to report on the Lee film but we still remain hopeful that someday soon….!" </i> August 18 1979</p><p>"<i>Nothing has happened on the Lee project but the producer remains hopeful that he will yet be able to put together the necessary financing. I am not holding my breath however!" </i>August 1 1981</p><p>"<i>Were sic. in Nashville for the live telecast of THE MEMBER OF THE WEDDING in December then Christmas in Hartford with grandsons New Years in San Jose with other grandson then to Monte Carlo where I was on the jury of the Television Festival which led to several days travel on the Riviera and southern France home for three days then to Vermont where I did a CBS Christmas special and finally home about two weeks ago… Out of the blue I heard from North Callahan whom I have not heard from in years. He has a book coming out on Peggy Shippen Arnold. Sounds most interesting. Still trying to put together a production of Fast's APRIL MORNING and something on Robert E. Lee but both are proving most difficult in today's market…" </i>June 3 1983</p><p>"<i>We have jst Rebel-ese returned from filming IRONCLADS the Monitor-Merrimack battle for the Turner Network scheduled to air in early March close to the anniversary of the fight. It was a completely exhausting experience and I am glad that the filming stage is over. Now we shall set forth to edit and see what we have - or don't have as the case may be!" </i>September 8 1990</p><p>After serving in World War II attending Yale School of Drama and Columbia South Carolina's Town Theatre Mann moved to New York to work in television at the urging of his high school friend and mentor Fred Coe producer of NBC's esteemed Philco Television Playhouse.

‎MANN, Delbert (1920-2007)‎

‎Typed Letter Signed‎

‎This American film and television director was only the third director to win both an Academy Award and a Cannes Palme d'Or for the same film "Marty" 1955; other films include "Desire Under the Elms" 1958 "The Dark at the Top of the Stairs" 1960 "A Gathering of Eagles" 1963 and "David Copperfield" 1969. TLS 1p 8½" X 11" Los Angeles CA 1978 November 3. Addressed to noted Lincoln/Civil War scholar ARNOLD F. GATES 1914-93. Near fine. On "Richmond-Confederate Productions Inc." letterhead Mann chats with this friend from his days in New York in the 1950s. "I was involved in doing a television film during the early part of the summer" he writes "and then was off to Ireland where I spent the last two months preparing a film which unfortunately has collapsed because of a failure in the financing plans. So now I am back here not knowing for sure what I will be doing next but left free to try to catch up on my old correspondence! Maybe sometime we will be able to get the Robert E. Lee project off the ground. Money has been promised from various sources but as yet hasn't materialized. I have learned to count on nothing in this crazy business so it may happen with surprising suddenness or it may not happen at all." Signed simply "Del" in green marker. Mann directed a number of made-for-television movies around this time making it difficult to determine exactly which film he was filming "during the early part of the summer." And it seems this film involving General Lee never came to pass for nothing resembling this appears in the Mann filmography. An interesting letter. unknown‎
