Collection Scope
The correspondence in this collection reflects both the romantic attachment between Eero Saarinen and Astrid Sampe, as well as her role as a critic of his design ideas. Envelopes have also been retained for the information they provide.
Translations of the letters were done by Ann Gheorghiade, a volunteer at the Archives. Acid-free copies of the translations are included with each letter.
