Scope and Content Note
The subseries consists of portraits and snapshots of Pearl Cleage from 1949-2008, as well as photographs of Cleage with others and at various events. The portraits and snapshots of Cleage from the 1940s-1950s document her childhood and teenage years in both Springfield, Massachusetts, and Idlewild, Michigan, as well as family photographs. Snapshots from the 1960s and 1970s include photographs taken during her tenure at Howard University and Spelman College. Of particular interest are photographs relating to her graduation from Spelman College in 1971 and her time as press secretary for Maynard Jackson. Photographs from the 1980s-2008 document her literary career, her interactions with family and friends, as well as book signings and speaking engagements promoting her books and plays. The bulk of photographs contain images of Cleage with others including her first husband Michael Lomax, Sonia Sanchez, Maya Angelou, Susan Taylor, and Nikki Giovanni.
