Abstract

Era Bell Thompson, author of American Daughter and Africa, Land of My Fathers, was a pioneering photojournalist for Ebony magazine and international editor for Johnson Publishing Company for more than 30 years. She was also an important figure of the Chicago Renaissance. Her ties to the Vivian G. Harsh Research Collection of Afro-American History and Literature span nearly 50 years. Collection highlights include her manuscripts, correspondence, Johnson Publishing records and photographs.

Biographical/Historical

Era Bell Thompson’s position as co-managing and international editor of Ebony offered her a unique opportunity to interact with writers of the Harlem Renaissance and the Chicago Black Renaissance. She connected with journalists from all over the world, as well as publishers and editors from major publishing houses, and political leaders from all 7 continents. Her papers offer a lens into the evolution of Black publishing and marketing in the United States during the first decades of the 20th century.

Era Bell Thompson was born on August 10, 1905, in Des Moines, Iowa to Mary (Logan) Thompson and Stewart C. Thompson. Thompson was the youngest child and only daughter. Her father, Stewart Thompson held many different positions in his lifetime and exerted a strong lifelong influence upon his daughter. The family later moved to Driscoll, North Dakota where her father bought a farm. Her mother died when she was 12. Again, the family moved; this time to Mandan, North Dakota and later to Bismarck where her father served as a messenger for Governor Lynn Frazier.

While North Dakota was ethnically diverse with Scandinavian, Russian German, and other European ancestry, Thompson and her family were one of very few Black families in her community during the time she lived there. This experience helped shaped Thompson, as seen in her writing.

Era Bell Thompson began writing as a child. In her high school classroom, she was given a small corner to write her penciled newspaper “SNAP; which contained humor and poetry. After high school, Thompson became a correspondent for the Chicago Defender. She used the pseudonym of Dakota Dick and became a contributor to the “Lights and Shadows” column.

In 1925, Thompson attended University of North Dakota in Grand Forks. She was a successful student athlete, tying 2 intercollegiate records and breaking 5 state records in one track meet. She returned to Mandan after 2 years due to sudden illness: scarlet fever and pleurisy. She went to Minnesota in 1928 where she met Dr. Robert O’Brian whom she was to have a life-long friendship. Dr. O’Brian was instrumental in getting her back to college. She returned to the University of North Dakota in 1930, but later transferred to Morningside College, in Sioux City, Iowa when Dr. O’Brian and his family were transferred there.

Thompson earned her Bachelor of Arts in English from Morningside in 1933. After graduation, she moved to Chicago and did domestic work until she passed the civil service exams and became a typist for the United States Employment Services. From 1936-1941, she worked as a junior clerk for the Illinois Works Progress Administration (WPA) project and also as a junior clerk for the Chicago Relief Administration. There, she started her own one-page interoffice newspaper titled the Giggle Sheet and served as its editor from 1937 to 1941. Thompson also completed graduate work in journalism at the Medill School of Journalism at Northwestern University in Evanston, Illinois from 1938-1940. From 1942-1946, she worked for the Illinois division of the Employment Services as a junior clerk interviewer.

Thompson applied for a Julius Rosenwald Fellowship to write a book about North Dakota, but the committee turned her down. She later received a Newberry Library Fellowship, funded through the Rockefeller Foundation, to change her book concept from historical information about North Dakota to how a Black family was surviving “way up there.” In her proposal to Newberry, Thompson wrote, “to many, I was the First Black Child in a land that is still burying its’ First White Children. It has been a lot of fun, this business of being colored.” Her book, American Daughter, was published in 1946.

In 1947, Thompson began her over 20-year career at Johnson Publishing Company. She started out as an associate editor for Negro Digest (later named Black World). She also penned a monthly series called “Bell’s Lettres” from 1946-1951. Between 1947 and 1951 she divided her time between Negro Digest and Ebony. After 1951, she worked exclusively for Ebony becoming its co-managing editor. As co-managing editor for Ebony, Thompson was primarily responsible for assigning stories and supervising JPC’s writers. She also penned the monthly “Photo-Editorial” column. In 1954 she published Africa, Land of My Father, which grew out of her working tours of the African continent.

Thompson’s rise at Johnson Publishing continued as she became the international editor in 1964. This expanded her duties to writing and assigning articles about foreign countries; planning issues of Ebony; supervising its art department as well as editors and staff in its New York, California, Washington, D.C., and local Chicago offices.

In 1964, Era Bell Thompson became managing editor of Ebony Africa, and was integral in introducing the publication to the continent. She retired from her editor role for Ebony in 1970 but continued to work with the publication as a consultant. Thompson received numerous awards for outstanding service in the field of journalism and activism; she also has two honorary doctor of letters degrees from Morningside College and the University of North Dakota.

Era Bell Thompson died in Chicago on December 30, 1986.

JOHNSON PUBLISHING COMPANY

Johnson Publishing Company, Inc, was a Chicago-based, international reaching mass media company that produced publications that focused on African American life and achievements. Founded in 1942 by John Harold Johnson, it produced popular magazines like Ebony, Negro Digest, Tan, Jet and Ebony Jr., which were instrumental in changing how African Americans are represented in mass media.

After graduating from DuSable High School in Chicago, Arkansas-born John H. Johnson used his editorial skills honed as editor of the school’s paper and yearbook while working for Supreme Life Insurance of America. Johnson became the assistant editor of the company’s monthly newsletter, The Guardian, and began a digest in the publication of what was happening in the Black world. After serving as The Guardian’s editor, Johnson went on to establish his own publication, Negro Digest, on November 1, 1942, with a $500 investment from his mother. The opening editorial stated that “Negro Digest is published in response to a demand for a magazine to summarize and condense the leading articles and comment on the Negro now current in the press of the nation.” Its popularity inspired Johnson to consider a second magazine, Ebony in 1945. In a publisher’s statement on the 10th anniversary of Ebony, Johnson said that “Ebony was started to mirror the brighter side of Negro life”. By 1955, Johnson had publishing offices in three cities and a circulation of over 500,000 nationwide.

Johnson went on to create Jet (a pocket-sized magazine), Tan Confessions (a romance magazine), Hue, Ebony Man, Ebony Jr. and Black Stars. Ebony Africa, headed by Era Bell Thompson and William Grayson, began in March 1964 and was meant to foster a better understanding between the peoples of America and those of Africa by providing a media for direct dialogue.

In addition to its many magazine publications, Johnson Publishing Company also had a book division that started in 1963. It launched with its first hard-cover title, Before the Mayflower, a Negro history written by Ebony Senior Editor, Lerone Bennett, Jr.

Super Series 2: Johnson Publishing Company Records, circa 1912-1986

Scope and Contents

John H. Johnson started his publishing empire with a small loan of $500 from his mother, Gertrude Williams. He first published Negro Digest in 1942 and then went on to create a publishing empire that included Ebony, Tan Confession, Jet, Ebony Jr and Ebony Africa. All these magazines were published in the month of November. He had offices in Chicago, New York, California and Washington, DC as well as international offices in Paris and Africa. These records illuminate the growth and development of black publishing in the United States and how Johnson utilized the untapped marketing power of the black community to move his publishing empire forward. The Travel Abroad series sheds light on the history and political climate of the African continent during the decades of the 50s and 60s.

Series 6: Travel Abroad Notes, 1951-1978

Scope and Content

Thompson’s notes are more detailed than her journals. She used the diaries to type up her notes on the various countries she visited giving dates where possible, times, people she met, her impressions of people and country, background on people’s lives. There is detailed information on a country’s agricultural, political and social conditions. EBT kept correspondence from people in their country’s folders.

The Travel Notes are an untapped source of information on countries that she visited or did stories on. The level of detail is worthy of a commercial clearing house of information. They contain her notes on each country that she visited, time of arrival, people she had appointments to see, her take on the country and people, her plan of travel enroute and while in the country, her interviews, and her sightseeing tours. This series (along with her diaries) paints a vivid picture of EBT and the countries she visited. They contain her interview notes with government and country officials, contact information, and the country’s relationship with the United States and Black Americans. There are excellent files here on the plight of bi-racial children around the world. For example, a file on Japanese-Amerasians covers the country’s efforts to deal with the growing number of bi-racial babies between 1965-1972; covering their social and political conditions and the orphanages that operated during that time. Specific biographical details are given on some of the children and young adults.

Thompson made detailed notes of bi-racial children in each continent she visited. In Australia, she kept meticulous notes on the people, Aborigines, country’s history, politicians, political events, educators and Americans that immigrated. African travel notes contain information on the unification of South Africa, pre-Rhodesia and Zambia and Zimbabwe. Included in her notes are newspaper clippings and magazine articles from around the world that shed light on the countries, people and situations.
