The papers of Miriam Van Waters document her personal and professional life. The collection includes correspondence, diaries, notes, lectures, speeches, policies, articles, student testimonies, reports, case studies, scrapbooks, photographs, clippings, plays by Van Waters, and printed material. Van Waters's family correspondence covers more than 60 years; professional correspondence is with prominent individuals concerned with penology and juvenile delinquency and with prisoners and parolees. Miriam Van Waters used the term "student" instead of "prisoner" or "inmate" when referring to women or girls; this finding aid uses her terminology. Most correspondents are indexed in this finding aid, with the exception of students (i.e. prisoners).
The majority of the collection documents Van Waters's work at the Reformatory for Women at Framingham, and includes material on Van Waters's dismissal and reinstatement in 1948 and 1949, including scrapbooks on her hearings, student essays, and reports and articles by Van Waters and others on prison policies. This collection also includes material related to El Retiro, as well as the American Youth Commission. This material also includes speeches and writings, radio interviews, papers pertaining to her books, Youth in Conflict and Parents on Probation, autobiographical material, and lecture notes. Papers related to Van Waters's work for the Harvard Law School Crime Survey and for the National Commission on Law Observance and Enforcement were removed from this collection and are now housed in the Harvard Law School Archives; see related material.
Additional material received in June 1995 (accession number 95-M85) was added to the collection in April 2019. These materials are housed in #653-658. Existing oversized folders were numbered #630ao, 651f+, and 652o. Existing folders #268-348, 356 were not previously listed in this finding aid.

BIOGRAPHY
Miriam Van Waters, penologist, was born October 4, 1887, in Greensburg, Pennsylvania, the eldest living child (an older daughter died before Miriam was born) of George Browne (1865-1934) and Maude Vosburg (1866-1948) Van Waters. She had two sisters and two brothers: Ruth Van Waters Burton (1893-1967); Rebecca Van Waters Bartholomew (1898-1974?); George Browne Van Waters, Jr. (1899-1981); and Ralph Van Waters, Sr. (1904-1989). Van Waters graduated in 1904 from St. Helen's Hall in Portland, Oregon, and then attended the University of Oregon, where she earned a B.A. in Philosophy, 1908, and an M.A. in Psychology, 1910. She received a Ph.D. in Anthropology from Clark University, Worcester, Massachusetts, in 1913.
From 1913 to 1932, Van Waters devoted her career to various aspects of juvenile care. She served as a special agent for the Boston Children's Aid Society, 1913; the superintendent of the Frazer Detention Home in Portland, Oregon, 1914-1915; the superintendent of Juvenile Hall in Los Angeles County, California, 1917-1920; and referee of the Juvenile Court in Los Angeles, 1920-1930. In 1917, Van Waters helped found El Retiro, a school for delinquent and / or homeless girls, which was a branch of the Juvenile Hall of the Los Angeles County Probation Department, California. Van Waters served as director of the school, and was involved in its administration for several years after she resigned in 1920.
In 1926, Van Waters was director of the juvenile delinquency section of the Harvard Law School Crime Survey, and a consultant on juvenile delinquency for the National Commission on Law Observance and Enforcement ("Wickersham Commission"), from 1928 probably until 1931. Throughout this period Van Waters also served on other government and university committees and commissions, participated in various professional organizations, delivered speeches and lectures, and wrote two books: Youth in Conflict, (1925) and Parents on Probation, (1927).
In 1932, Van Waters succeeded Jessie D. Hodder as the superintendent of the Reformatory for Women at Framingham, Massachusetts. Her progressive penal policies included: emphasizing psychological treatment, allowing mothers to keep their children with them at Reformatory for Women at Framingham, and broadly interpreting the Massachusetts indenture system to allow for more day work. During her tenure there, several state officials along with local newspapers, launched critical attacks on Van Waters and her policies. After hearings in 1948, Van Waters was dismissed as Superintendent in January 1949. She was then reinstated by a governor's commission in March 1949, following further hearings and much publicity. She served as superintendent until her retirement in 1957. As in previous years, Van Waters was involved in other activities: teaching, serving on committees in professional organizations, delivering speeches, conducting research and writing.
In 1929, Van Waters assumed guardianship of a seven-year-old girl and renamed the child Sarah Ann. Van Waters, who never married, legally adopted Sarah in 1932. In 1941 Sarah Ann Van Waters (1922-1953) married Richard Hildebrandt. They had three sons before they were divorced in 1949: George (born 1941), Richard (born 1943), and Peter (born 1945). Sarah Ann Hildebrandt was killed in a car accident in February 1953.
Miriam Van Waters suffered a stroke in 1972, and died on January 17, 1974.

Repository Details
Part of the Schlesinger Library, Radcliffe Institute Repository
The preeminent research library on the history of women in the United States, the Schlesinger Library documents women's lives from the past and present for the future. In addition to its traditional strengths in the history of feminisms, women’s health, and women’s activism, the Schlesinger collections document the intersectional workings of race and ethnicity, gender, sexuality, and class in American history.
