Collection Guide Prepared By:
Mark Davidson and Corinne Kannenberg
Collection Date Range:
1961-2012 [bulk 1964-2012]
Collection Provenance:
The Bob Dylan Archive® was purchased in 2016. The George Kaiser Family Foundation (GKFF) and the University of Tulsa (TU) purchased Bob Dylan’s personal archive of his working life and career from Dylan and his management team. GKFF bought out TU’s stake shortly thereafter. The collection was housed at the Helmerich Center for American Research at Gilcrease Museum before being relocated to the American Song Archives in late 2022.
Scope and Contents:
The Bob Dylan Archive® is Bob Dylan’s personal collection of his life and work spanning roughly the years 1961 to 2012. The collection consists of both physical materials (lyric manuscripts, notebooks, correspondence, sheet music, photographs, session logs, artifacts, promotional materials, etc.) and digital materials (digitized audio, film and video footage, photographs, etc.). The bulk of the lyric manuscripts span Another Side of Bob Dylan (1964) to Tempest (2012).
Arrangement:
The collection is physically arranged and preserved according to its original order—as arranged previously by those directly affiliated with Dylan’s music office—in order to maintain the original context of the materials. When necessary for preservation or redaction, some materials have been rehoused and a separation sheet has been inserted into the original location. This finding aid is arranged intellectually into eleven series.
Additional acquisitions to the Dylan Archive have been added to the end of the original finding aid. See the Addition of 2017 for additional correspondence that was added to the collection in 2016 and 2017.
