Grants and Acquisitions

Abstract

The University of Pittsburgh Library System (ULS) has received a $1 million grant from the Henry L. Hillman Foundation to support the final preparation of the August Wilson Archive for its opening to the public followed by two years of support for in-depth public engagement with the archive. This is the biggest grant in the history of ULS and builds upon the many other charitable donations and grants supporting this project. ULS acquired the archive of Pittsburgh native August Wilson in 2020. Wilson is one of the greatest American playwrights and is most widely known for his American Century Cycle.
