The letters were written mostly from New York City in the 1920s while Beamer was attending college and performing as a dancer before she married, and in 1931 after she had just gotten married to Henry Miles Cutler (1901-1950). The correspondence details Hazel Beamer's activities in New York City, news and gossip regarding family and friends in Thomasville, Georgia, thank-yous for gifts sent in the mail (including wedding gifts sent in 1931), and the recollection of her press coverage after a performance in Newark, New Jersey. Hazel Beamer describes her costumes for an unnamed performance and notes that portrait painter and stage designer Ben Ali Haggin, III (1882-1951) invited her to dinner with dancer, actress, and model Florence O'Denishawn, with whom she spent some time. Beamer expresses regret about different health issues of Baker's, including tonsillitis and injuries from an accident. She provides a detailed school reading list, updates on her schoolwork and dance rehearsals, her stay at illustrator, portrait artist, and muralist Dora Wheeler Keith (1856-1940) 's summer cabin located in a Catskills artist colony in Greene County, New York, working with the famed dancer Anna Pavlova, and performing at the Rivoli Theatre.</dc:description><dc:format>application/pdf</dc:format><dc:language>eng</dc:language><dc:rights>http://rightsstatements.org/vocab/NoC-US/1.0/</dc:rights><dc:subject>Cutler, Hazel Beamer, 1901-1980--Correspondence</dc:subject><dc:subject>Baker, Willie--Correspondence</dc:subject><dc:subject>Families--Georgia--Thomasville</dc:subject><dc:subject>Families--New York (State)--New York</dc:subject><dc:subject>Haggin, Ben Ali, 1882-1951</dc:subject><dc:subject>O'Denishawn, Florence, 1897-1991</dc:subject><dc:subject>Dance--New York (State)--New York</dc:subject><dc:subject>Dancers--New York (State)--New York</dc:subject><dc:subject>Costume--New York (State)--New York</dc:subject><dc:subject>Theater rehearsals--New York (State)--New York</dc:subject><dc:subject>Keith, Dora Wheeler, 1856-1940</dc:subject><dc:subject>Pavlova, Anna, 1881-1931</dc:subject><dc:subject>Rivoli Theatre (New York, N.Y.)</dc:subject><dc:subject>Gossip--Georgia--Thomasville</dc:subject><dc:title>Beamer, Hazel to Willie Baker</dc:title><dc:type>Text</dc:type></oai_dc:dc>
