Anson Conger Goodyear was born June 20, 1877 to a socially prominent family in Buffalo, New York. He achieved his undergraduate
degree from Yale University in 1899 and established a successful career in the lumber and railroad industries. In 1912, Goodyear
succeeded his father as a director of the Buffalo Academy of Fine Arts and was appointed the first president of The Museum
of Modern Art in 1929. He served in that position until 1939 when he was succeeded by Nelson A. Rockefeller, but Goodyear
continued serving on the acquisitions committee until the 1950s and remained a trustee of the Museum until his death on April
24, 1964.
These scrapbooks were compiled by Goodyear and his office during the years he served as president of the Museum. Organized
in a rough chonological order (different volumes overlap coverage), the scrapbooks focus on exhibitions of the first decade
of the Museum. Documentation includes exhibition catalogs, preview invitations, lecture announcements, organizational records,
correspondence, extensive newspaper and magazine coverage, brochures and other materials describing the nascent days of the
MoMA organization. Volume 53 is devoted solely to annual reports and reports of the director from the Museum's first ten years.
