- One-and-a-half pages, consisting of over 140 penned on both sides of his 7-3/4 inch high by 7-1/4 inch wide personal stationery. Holbrook has crossed out his former address and penned in a new one along the top. Responding to his friend Jean Dalrymple, Holbrook writes "I don't know what to tell you. Out of deference to the I.P.A. I should say 'please do join it', but I wonder if it could help you in any fashion. I know you could help it buy being a member. It is mainly an organization of the grass-roots people in the concert and lecture field and I owe it an allegiance since through its auspices I got started in the concert field." Signed "Hal". Jean Dalrymple has circled Holbrook's name in light red graphite at the top with a red check mark across the text indicating she'd read the letter. Folded for mailing with a paper clip stain to the top of the verso. Near fine. The American stage & screen actor Harold Rowe "Hal" Holbrook, Jr. (1925-2021) won the Tony Award for his portrayal of Mark Twain in a play in 1966. He made his first appearance in film in Sidney Lumet's "The Group" in that same year and gained fame for his role as the Watergate whistle blower "Deep Throat" in "All the President's Men". Holbrook appeared in numerous films including "Magnum Force", "Capricorn One", "The Firm" and earned an Academy Award and a Screen Actor Guild's Award nomination for Best Supporting actor in Sean Penn's "Into The Wild".Jean Dalrymple (1902-1998) was the dynamic producer and director of theater and light-opera at Manhattan's City Center. Dalrymple began her career in Vaudeville, appearing with James Cagney and Cary Grant in the early 1930s. She was a founding member of the American Theatre Wing, the theatre service organization. She worked over the years as a personal manager for the likes of Leopold Stokowski, Mary Martin, Jose Iturbi, Andre Kostalanetz, Nathan Milstein, and Lily Pons. She began her work at City Center with its founding in 1943, serving as a board member, producer, and publicist. Her productions there from the 1940s through the 1960s were a revitalizing influence on the whole New York theatre scene. In 1951, Jean Dalrymple married Major-General Philip deWitt Ginder, commander of the Thunderbirds in Korea. She was a friend to Presidents and entertainment personalities throughout the world.…
