This collection contains ten letters sent from James Agee to Tamara Comstock between August 1954 and March 1955. The letters detail Agee's personal life (recounting events surrounding the birth of his last child and his health problems), his writing (updating her on his current professional projects and struggles with his personal work), and some discussion of Agee and Comstock's relationship.

Seven of the original envelopes and five photocopies of photographs of Tamara Comstock are also included.
