Abstract

These letters were written by Richard Hanna Frizzell to his parents in Cleveland, Ohio. Frizzell was a student at Yale College from 1928 to 1932, lived in New York City after graduation, briefly moved to central Pennsylvania to apply for a job with the Interstate Commerce Commission, and eventually moved to Buffalo, New York where he worked for Wickwire Spencer Steel Company. He wrote about his approach to life, college activities and social happenings, assessments of his own talents, and school work. While the letters are primarily to his parents, there are also letters written to his aunts and letters sent to his parents from their cousins.
