Situated on scenic Columbia Point, with views of downtown Boston and the harbor, since 1968 the JFK Library has been the official repository of the correspondences and papers of the Kennedy Administration. Although JFK and Ernest Hemingway never met in real life, after Hemingway’s death in 1961 President Kennedy lifted the travel ban to Cuba, enabling Mary Hemingway to travel to their former home Finca Vigía and bring back crates of his papers and paintings on a shrimp boat. Mary Hemingway agreed to donate her husband’s collection to the JFK Library only after First Lady Jackie Kennedy personally assured her that there would be a dedicated space for his works and artifacts.

When we asked if Hemingway shot the lion, Stacey conjectured it might’ve been Mary who pulled the trigger. (Good shot, Mary!)

The Hemingway Collection contains only a fraction of Hemingway’s papers and artifacts; thousands of materials (manuscripts, letters, photographs, and more) are stored in the JFK Library’s cage, to which only a few senior staff members have access.
