Lawrence, John Hundale, 1904-
John Hundale Lawrence papers, 1926-1987.
The John Hundale Lawrence Papers offer a window into a highly significant period of scientific history: the development of nuclear energy and the exploration of its applications. The John Hundale Lawrence Papers also reveal the politics of nuclear research during the period following World War II. His writings (Series 1) document his findings and progress in, as well as his advocacy for, nuclear medicine and his role in national and international political and scientific policy-making. Lawrence's course notes from Harvard Medical School (Series 2) are written on note cards and are neatly organized by course name. Very little of Lawrence's personal correspondence is found in the correspondence series (Series 3), although there is a small collection of photocopies of letters from Lawrence's father, Carl G. Lawrence, addressed to both John and his older brother Ernest, as well as letters from Ernest to John. Most of the is professional in nature, and includes correspondence with such prominent individuals as Albert Hosmer Bowker, Charles Johnston Hitch, Hardin B. Jones, Edward Teller, Cornelius A. Tobias, and Caspar W. Weinberger. Subject files (Series 4) contain Lawrence's papers on a variety of subjects, including national and international organizations and conferences; biographical materials on Carl G. Lawrence, John H. Lawrence, and the Lawrence family; some records relating to the administration of Donner Laboratory; papers regarding issues Lawrence faced as a Regent of the University of California; and one laboratory notebook.
