Official account for the archives of Harry Everett Smith - filmmaker, musicologist, mystic, & one of the least understood figures in postwar American culture

Thanks to the wonderful @currincy & the @librarycongress, we now know that Harry’s Anthology was one of the first records purchased for the White House Record Library! More shocking perhaps is the implication that Smith & Nixon might’ve shared common ground 😂

We love to see it

I've heard for years that the Nixon White House had a copy of Harry Smith's Anthology of American Folk Music. Thanks to the Library of Congress for doing the digging to confirm it, maybe for the first time? @HS_Archives @Folkways

One of my favorite parts of the @HS_Archives at @GettyMuseum are Harry Smith's stationery border works. Why? Harry Smith's border art is important, because all his art is border art! Pages and pages of psychedelic rectangles of margin-defining edginess. #harrysmith
