Scope and Content NoteThe papers of Vannevar Bush (1890-1974) span the years 1901-1974, with the bulk of the items concentrated in the periodfrom 1932 to 1955. The collection consists of general correspondence, family papers, scientific papers, speeches andwritings, subject files, and printed matter. It documents various phases of Bush's professional life as a physicist, engineer,and administrator of scientific research. Bush's advocacy of closer cooperation between scientists and the federalgovernment during World War II led to his role as the principal mobilizer of American scientific and engineering talent inthe wartime defense of the nation. His first national appointment was to the chairmanship of the National Defense ResearchCommittee, an embryonic agency for weapons development that Bush proposed and that President Franklin D. Rooseveltinaugurated in 1940. One year later Bush assumed the directorship of a greatly expanded successor organization, the Officeof Scientific Research and Development (OSRD), where he supervised the Manhattan Project and a number of otherprograms. The collection is organized in six series: General Correspondence , Family Papers , Speeches and Writings ,Scientific File , Miscellany , and Additions .
The primary series of Bush's papers is the General Correspondence , which includes letters sent and received and a widevariety of material ranging from personal writings and memoranda to organizational reports and minutes covering thegamut of Bush's professional and avocational interests from the late 1930s through 1955. Illuminated are his variousinventive probings (Bush was knowledgeable in optics, medicine, ornithology, and zoology) and his puzzling overquestions such as the uses of penicillin, the "homing instinct" of birds, and the development of a "rapid selector" for theretrieval of microfilm and tape recordings. Evident as well are his connections to businessmen, academic associates, andgovernment officials who shared his enthusiasms or had an interest in their practical resolution and marketability. There isalso information regarding his career as a teacher and dean at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology in the 1930s.
The main focus of the correspondence, however, is on Bush's responsibilities as coordinator of the scientific communityduring and after World War II. Featured are the complexities and challenges of running the OSRD, but prominent as wellare the activities of other governmental and quasi-governmental bodies whose tasks supplemented or continued OSRDpolicies through World War II and into the Cold War era. Included among the agencies which are represented in somedetail are the National Advisory Committee for Aeronautics, the Joint Committee on New Weapons and Equipment of theJoint Chiefs of Staff, the National Science Foundation, the National Research Council, and the National Academy ofSciences. Important, too, are files concerning Bush's numerous corporate and academic affiliations, including his service onthe board of directors of American Telephone and Telegraph Company,1947-1962; as chairman of the board of Merck andCompany, 1957-1962; as corporate chairman of MIT, 1959-1966; and as a trustee of Tufts College and Johns HopkinsUniversity.
The Scientific File pertains to diverse topics such as air engines, fly rods, immunological reactions, and solar pumps. In itare diagrams, photographs, laboratory notes, bibliographies, patent reports, and correspondence. His family papers , whichare relatively few, contain correspondence with immediate family members but consist mainly of financial records and

miscellany. The Speeches and Writings series provides a full account of Bush's views on a host of subjects, with notabletopics being the interrelationship of science and government and the technological assumptions behind America's postwarrelations with the Soviet Union. Especially relevant to this latter theme are papers relating to Bush's book, Modern Armsand Free Men (New York, 1949) and to numerous talks and articles delineating his views on international control of atomicenergy, the garrison state, America's military and ideological confrontation with the Soviet Union, and the loyaltycontroversies of the McCarthy period.
The Additions series consists mainly of a speeches and writings file from the Carnegie Institute of Washington where Bushserved as president during 1939-1955.
Important correspondents include scores of legislators, policymakers, executives, scientists, and military officials. Amongthem are Presidents Dwight D. Eisenhower and Harry S. Truman; army leaders Henry Harley Arnold, Omar NelsonBradley, Robert Porter Patterson, and Carl Spaatz; and government experts Dean Acheson, James Forrestal, and David EliLilienthal. Additional names of significance and frequency include Niels Henrik David Bohr, Robert A. Choate, Karl K. T.Compton, James Bryant Conant, Bradley Dewey, Charles Dollard, W. W. Garth, Jr., Caryl Parker Haskins, D. C. Josephs,James Rhyne Killian, Russell R. C. Leffingwell, F.
