Lydia Hoelscher, Correspondence
Subject
The topic of the resource
This collection features correspondence between artist LeRoy Neiman and his mother, Lydia Hoelscher, from the artist's early adulthood to Hoelscher's passing in 1985.
Description
An account of the resource
Lydia Hoelscher was an integral figure in LeRoy Neiman's early life, being the near sole consistent presence. Hoelscher, née Serline, married Neiman’s father Charles Runquist in 1918, with the couple and their two sons LeRoy (b. 1921) and Earl (b. 1920) residing in Duluth. When Runquist absconded the family in 1926, the mother moved to Saint Paul, wedding a leather factory foreman of Polish-German descent, "Jack L. Neiman" (John L. Niman). Avoiding what the artist describes in his memoir <em>All Told</em> as, “bothersome adoption legalities,” the children assumed their stepfather’s surname. The elder Neiman's alcoholic tendencies and Depression Era unemployment however led to early divorce. Lydia married Ernst G. Hoelscher roughly five years later, in 1940. <br /><br />Neiman maintained minimal correspondence with these male figures, including Earl, who had expatriated to Italy. These letters then provide a unique window into the artist’s family life, with the bulk written from Hoelscher to Neiman in the years leading up to her passing.
