Scope and contents

This file contains typed copies of letters from Hephzibah to Joan Levy that had been sent from Levy to Glen Tomasetti when Tomasetti was working on her biography of Hephzibah. A letter from Glen to Joan explains that she would be unable to write a story that the Nicholas family, the Hausers, Menuhins, and Hephzibah would have approved of, and returned the letters in 2002; Tomasetti died in 2003. Some of her notes, written in pencil on the letters, remain partially legible, but most have been erased. The letters have been numbered twice.
