[0014] Carl W. Ackerman Papers, 1833-1970 (bulk 1931-1956), MSS50039

Location: Manuscript Division, Library of Congress, 101 Independence Ave. SE, Room LM 101, James Madison Memorial Bldg, Washington, D.C. 20540-4680

Description: Carl W. Ackerman (1890-1970) was a journalist, educator, and public relations consultant.
