Biography/Profile

Dr. Preston Bradley (1888-1983), clergyman, author, and lecturer, is widely known as the founder and Pastor of the Peoples Church, Chicago, Illinois. In 1912, Dr. Bradley withdrew from the Presbyterian ministry to establish an independent church based on a creed of "the Good, the True, and the Beautiful." The Peoples Church affiliated with the Unitarian Conference in 1922, accepting full fellowship in that church body the following year. From an original membership of 67 persons, the Peoples Church grew to be the largest Unitarian congregation in the United States. In 1926, after meeting in north side theaters for thirteen years, the congregation dedicated the Uptown Temple, an auditorium structure seating more than 1700 people. Dr. Bradley occupied his pulpit for over 50 years and was the Dean of Chicago clergymen.

Born in Linden, Michigan, Dr. Bradley attended Alma [Michigan] College and studied law before entering the ministry. Among his honorary degrees were a D.C.L. from Hamilton College of Law [Chicago, Illinois], an L.L.D. from Lake Forest [Illinois] College, and a D.D. from Meadville Theological Seminary [Chicago, Illinois]. He served on the Illinois State Teachers College and Normal School Boards for many years. He was a founding member and past president of the Isaak Walton League of America, an organization devoted to conservation of natural resources. A noted orator, Dr. Bradley made numerous addresses every year throughout the United States. He conducted a number of radio series, including book reviews, news commentaries, and religious programs. In addition, his sermons, prayers, and inspirational essays have been col1ected in a number of popular books including: Courage for Today, 1934; Mastering Fear, 1935; Power from Right Thinking , 1936; Life and-You, 1940; New Wealth for You, 1941; Meditations, 1941; My Daily Strength; and Happiness Through Creative Living, 1955. His autobiography, Along the Way, written with Harry Barnard, was published in 1962. Dr. Bradley also edited The Liberalist, a monthly magazine published by the Peoples Church.

Dr. Bradley occupied a unique position in Chicago. In addition to his religious leadership of the Peoples Church and its large radio congregation, he was active in civic affairs. He served on the Chicago Council against Racial Discrimination and on the Mayor's Committee on Race Relations, A life member of the Art Institute of Chicago, he was also a trustee of the Municipal Art League. Starting in 1925, Dr. Bradley was a member of the Chicago Public Library Board. Under his direction the Peoples Church has served as a community forum offering lectures and institutes on a wide variety of topics. The Church also sponsored the Uptown Players, a drama group directed for many years by Dr. Brad- ley's adopted son, named Bradley Griffin. In 1962, Chicago honored Dr. Bradley for his fifty years of service with a testimonial dinner and citation.

Dr. Bradley was married to Grace Thayer in 1915. She died in 1950, and their adopted son, James, died the following year. In 1952, Dr. Bradley married June Haslet, and they continued to reside in Chicago. He continues as Pastor of the Peoples Church with the assistance of the Reverend Virgil A. Kraft until 1976. When asked whether he intended to retire upon completion of 50 years' ministry, Dr, Bradley replied, "I do not intend to retire. I look forward to many more years. There is work to be done. I want to do it." (Along the Way, p.277.)

Arrangement

The collection was only partially arranged when received. Much of the correspondence and many of the speeches and radio broadcasts had been grouped in several overlapping series with different titles. A large number of miscellaneous clippings, pamphlets, programs, etc., were loose. The cataloger retained the original groupings of material where possible, and supplied arrangement and titles for loose items to integrate them with the rest of the collection. Dr. Bradley's activities as head of the Peoples Church and popular lecturer and commentator were considered the central feature around which the collection was organized by subject-classification and manuscript type. The following general system was adopted:

Series I, PERSONAL PAPERS, was subject classified. Incoming letters were filed under "Correspondence," then by author's last name. Dated vacation brochures were filed chronologically under "Vacation and Travel," with undated items at the end of this series.

Series II, PROFESSIONAL PAPERS, was subject classified. The correspondence series had been subdivided under titles such as "Fan Letters," and this arrangement was retained with loose items interfiled. Material on the Peoples Church begins with the anniversaries celebrated, from the 20th to the 50th. Next are filed the church calendars (bulletins of services held). The series continues with subject-classified material [titles supplied by the cataloger] followed by the publications issued by the church, "The Dial" and The Liberalist, filed chronologically.

Series III, SPEECHES AND WRITINGS BY PRESTON BRADLEY, was filed by the cataloger according to the manuscript type - sermons, book reviews, radio broad- casts, etc. Within these categories the original alphabetical or chronological arrangement was retained; thus, book reviews are filed alphabetically by title and sermons are filed chronologically. Books by Dr. Bradley and the accompanying galley proofs are filed alphabetically by title. This section also includes inspirational poetry collected by Dr. Bradley and manuscripts submitted to him, since these items had originally been filed with his own speeches and writings.

Series IV, PUBLISHED MATERIAL, includes certificates of award and membership, arranged chronologically; clippings - chronologically, [many unarranged]; historic newspapers - chronological; pamphlets, subject-classified by the cataloger; invitations and programs, chronological; and scrapbooks, chronological.

Series V, PRINTS AND PHOTOGRAPHS, was subject classified by the cataloger and arranged a1phabetically.

Series VI, ARTIFACTS, is not arranged.
