Peter Lawford was born to Sir Sidney and Lady May Lawford in London, England on September 7, 1923. He moved with his family from England to France, Hawaii, Ceylon, Nassau, and Florida before he went to Hollywood. Here, he completed three films in two years and went on to secure a twelve-year contract with MGM. He also acted on television in such shows as The Thin Man and was a member of Frank Sinatra's "Rat Pack" until he and Sinatra fell out over political issues in the 1960s. His many prominent acquaintances included Elizabeth Taylor, Lana Turner, Marilyn Monroe, the Kennedy family, and Nancy (Davis) Reagan. Lawford was married four times: to Patricia Kennedy (1954-1966), to Mary Rowan (1971-1975), to Deborah Gould (1976-1977), and finally to Patricia Seaton (1984). He had four children with his first wife, Christopher, Sydney Maleia Kennedy, Victoria Francis, and Robin Elizabeth. Peter Lawford died in Los Angeles on December 24, 1984.
Series I through Series VII of the Peter Lawford Papers contain biographical material, family and professional correspondence, film and television contracts, production records, business and financial records, scripts, magazine articles, newspaper clippings, scrapbooks, and memorabilia documenting Lawford's career in show business.
The majority of images in Series VIII: Photographs were generated by Lawford's career in the entertainment industry. Also included are a substantial number of photographs documenting Lawford's relationship with the Kennedy family. Most of the photographs are 8" x 10" black and white silver gelatin prints that were taken on the sets of films that Lawford worked on. Photographs showing the Kennedy family are primarily 8" x 10" black and white photographs used for press releases and public relations. Very few negatives and personal photographs are present.

Arrangement | |||||||||||
The materials were received in disarray and were placed in major subject oriented divisions that have a specific chronology. The film related materials are organized according to the year in which the films were made and then by the responsible agency's negative numbers, which appear in brackets [ ] in the contents list. (See Appendix III for a complete listing of known negative numbers and the specific films that they correspond to). The other sub-series are arranged chronologically as well; however, the dates are not as specific. Several albums are included in the collection and their original order and arrangement have been preserved. | |||||||||||
