The collection includes the author's personal copies of first and foreign editions of his works, original typescripts of his fiction and screenplays, correspondence, research notes, illustrative artwork for dustcovers and paperbacks, in addition to personal mementos and photographs.  In 1934, Theodore Pratt and his wife Belle Jacqueline Jacques moved to Lake Worth, Florida and made it their home until his death in 1969. He published 35 novels, including four mysteries under the pseudonym of \"Timothy Brace,\" two collections of short stories, two plays (adapted from his novels), and numerous short stories and articles. Pratt used a second pseudonym, \"Peter Steel\" for an adult novel titled The Amulet.  Of the 35 novels, 14 of Pratt's novels and many of his short stories are set in Florida. His trilogy, consisting of The Barefoot Mailman, The Flame Tree, and The Big Bubble (reprinted as My Bride in the Storm), tell the story of the state between 1880 and 1924 and resulted in the author being dubbed \"the literary laureate of Florida.\" Four of his novels and one article were adapted to screenplays and became feature films.

Pratt's interest in sexology or the scientific study of human sexual behavior can be seen in his novels, The Tormented (1950), The Lovers of Pompeii (1961), and Without Consent (1962). The Tormented is a study of nymphomania that was rejected by thirty-four publishers. Once published, it sold more than a million copies. Because of the paperback format and mass market appeal of his books, critics paid little attention to most of his work.","Materials in the collections are to be used for private study, scholarship, or research in accord with the copyright law of the United States (Title 17, United States Code).

At that time the couple began collecting art by African American artists as well.","In 1998, the Hewitts sold 58 of their major works to the Bank of America which resulted in a travelling exhibition of the pieces at 25 museums.

It started in 1975 as the Broward County Library \"Project for the Economically Disadvantaged\" but soon became internationally known as Library-in-Action Project. The project ran until 2002.","The Von D. Mizell Library in the historic Sistrunk neighborhood, which became part of the Broward County Library system in 1974, was the headquarters of Library-In-Action. As a result of LIA-authored grant funding, four additional libraries were opened: Dania Beach Library (Feb. 5, 1979), Collier City Library (1980), Rock Island Library (1980), and Carver Ranches Library (1982). Also in 1980, the Von D. Mizell Library moved to a new building with a larger collection. These five libraries provided youth and adults with free access to books, literacy classes, and tutoring services. They also created tailor-made services and programs based on community input.","Broward County Library's Assistant Director, Samuel Morrison, hired an administrative team to oversee the LIA program: Tyrone Bryant (Director), Janet Hansen (Assistant Director), and Tanya Simons-Oparah (Outreach Services Coordinator). The LIA team earned millions of dollars in grants, trained librarians and staff, and conducted programming. ","From 1977 to 1980, Library-In-Action staff canvassed neighborhoods and offered library resources to the Collier City community before the Collier City Library was built. The LIA's Homework Assistance program bussed children from elementary schools to the Collier City Library, where they received help with their homework and school projects, graduating more than 200 students in its early years. ","The LIA project also involved a Bookmobile and a Footmobile service - where staff went door-to-door promoting libraries and delivering books. Other notable programs included speakers such as Alex Haley (author of \"Roots\") in 1980, Elton Fox, and Tom Feelings. The Black Heritage program educated children on Africa, and an African hut was constructed in the Von D. Mizell Library as part of the programming.","LIA Director Tyrone Bryant coined the name \"Library-In-Action\". Tyrone Bryant (1942-1988) was a graduate of Florida Agriculture and Mechanical University. Prior to his directorship at the Langston Hughes Library he was the director of the Committee for the Corona-East Elmhurst Community Corp, where he began working in 1967. The Committee's activism ultimately formed the Langston Hughes Cultural Center and Library in the Corona neighborhood in New York City. Tyrone Bryant became the first Director of the Langston Hughes Library which opened April 26, 1969 and served the needs of inner-city residents. Bryant moved to Fort Lauderdale in 1975 to become the LIA Director. The many programs conducted during the BCL LIA project originated from Tyrone Byrant's experience with programs at the Langston Hughes Library, such as the Homework Assistance Program. In 1983 Bryant was named Assistant Director of the Broward County Library system in charge of Special Services while also retaining his position as Project Director of LIA. Bryant also served as the chairman of the Sistrunk Historical Festival from 1983 until 1988. He married Claudia Wright in 1986. Tyrone Bryant died on February 24, 1988 at age 45. The Rock Island Library was rededicated in his honor on April 20, 1988 as the Tyrone Bryant Library Branch.","The 1980 Sistrunk Historical Festival saw the dedication of the Von D. Mizell Center which housed the Von D. Mizell Branch Library.","The LIA program collaborated with the City of Fort Lauderdale to create the Sistrunk Historical Festival in 1979, celebrating the county's black pioneers. The festival began as a two-day event to initiate economic redevelopment and held programming on African American culture, and under Bryant's chairmanship grew to a month-long event drawing over 100,000 people by 1988.","This collection received file level processing.

He migrated to Dania Beach, Florida in 1907 where he and Minnie began farming and raising children as one of the pioneering Black families in Broward County, Florida. He was a strong believer in education and is credited for establishing the Dania School for Coloreds and St. Ruth Baptist Church in Broward County. All 14 of the Mizell children attended high school and 10 of them went on to obtain college degrees. Some of the more prominent Mizell children include Dr. Von DeLaney Mizell, Reverend Ivory Mizell, and Leroy \"Roy\" Mizell.","Reverend Ivory Mizell was a photographer, documenting the lives of African Americans in Broward County. He also established the first library in 1948 at Dixie Court Projects. Leroy \"Roy\" Mizell was a mortician and established the Roy Mizell Funeral Home, today known as the Roy Mizell \u0026 Kurtz Funeral Home.","Dr. Von DeLaney Mizell (1910-1973) earned a Bachelor of Science degree at Moorehouse College in 1932 and completed his medical education at Meharry Medical College in 1936.

Dr. Mizell advocated for better healthcare for the Black community in Broward County. He established Provident Hospital with Dr. James Franklin Sistrunk in 1938. Dr. Sistrunk was the first Black doctor in Fort Lauderdale, Florida. Sistrunk Avenue in Fort Lauderdale is named in his honor. In addition to his medical profession, Dr. Mizell and Eula Mae Johnson initiated the wade-ins at the \"white-only\" beaches in Fort Lauderdale, Florida in 1961. One of Florida's state parks' name changed to honor their activism – Dr. Von D. Mizell-Eula Johnson State Park in Dania Beach, Florida.","Ethel Mizell Pappy was born on May 27, 1916.
