Uprooted.
Photograph signed: "Oscar Handlin". B/w, 5x7¼. Typed credit from the Harvard University
News Office in Cambridge, Massachusetts on verso. Date taken is written in ink (unknown

Harvard in 1940, the year after he joined the faculty there, teaching primarily U.S. social and
economic history. A prolific author, Handlin was awarded the Pulitizer Prize in History for
The Uprooted (1951), a history of the immigration movement in the U.S. after 1820. Many
of his books were written in collaboration with his first wife, Mary Flug Handlin, and
Handlin also wrote a monthly book column for "Atlantic Monthly". A full professor at
Harvard from 1954, Handlin was Director of the University Library from 1979-1983.
