Biographical Note
John Hawkins was born in Hamilton, Montana in 1910. He lived in Oregon
City and Gladstone before moving to Portland in 1939. Hawkins began writing
stories for such "pulp" magazines as
Popular Detective and
Ace G-Man Stories in 1933. He and his
brother Ward Hawkins (b. 1912, Vancouver, B.C.) then made the move from the
“pulp” to more respectable "slick" magazines. These included
The Saturday Evening Post,
Colliers, and
Cosmopolitan. When these magazines lost
circulation and began folding in the late 1950's, the Hawkins brothers decided
to try their hand at television and screen writing. They moved to Los Angeles
in 1938.
The two, separately and as a team, wrote scripts mainly for westerns
and police dramas, such as "Boots and Saddles," "Manhunt," and "The Virginian."
However, they wrote for a wide variety of shows, including "Alcoa Premiere,"
"The Man From U.N.C.L.E.," and "General Electric Theatre." John Hawkins was
especially successful, becoming assistant producer and story editor for
"Bonanza" and finally producer of "Little House on the Prairie." Ward
contributed scripts to both series. In addition, John was creator of and writer
for "Shannon." The Hawkins' also proposed their own series: "The Golden Tramp,"
"Jake Sloan," "Vietnam," among others.
In addition to short stories and teleplays, the Hawkins' wrote novels
and screenplays. The brothers were well known in their field and respected for
their professionalism and ability to produce quality "formula" stories and
scripts.
John Hawkins died in 1978 after a long illness, after producing
"Little House on the Prairie" for four years. Ward Hawkins is living in
California.
Content Description
The Papers of John and Ward Hawkins consist largely of fiction
manuscripts and teleplays. Correspondence, non-fiction manuscripts, and
screenplays are also included in the collection. This inventory represents an
incorporation of all the material received between 1965 and 1984.
The correspondence consisting of about 1,050 letters, is mostly with
literary agents, in particular the Brandt and Brandt agency. These agents'
letters often provide detailed commentary on the Hawk-ins' work and information
on the contemporary writing market. Later correspondence often concerns "Little
House on the Prairie." Noted correspondents include Albert R. Wetjen, August
Lenninger, and Ed-ward Abbey. The correspondence is in alphabetical order by
name of correspondent.
The fiction and non-fiction manuscripts provide samples of all types
of the Hawkins' work: pulp stories, "slick" stories; romance, sports, and
detective fiction; short stories, novel-length works, and work intended for
serialization. While many works are represented only by a single draft, others
have correspondence, outlines, notes, and/or early drafts preceding the latest
draft. Manuscripts are in alphabetical order by title. When more than one draft
of a work is present, chronological order has been established if discernible.
Several folders of untitled works and fragments come between fiction and
non-fiction manuscripts.
Teleplays (scripts for television) are in alphabetical order by
television series name. Within each series, teleplays are in order by episode
title, with final title determining placement. A series proposal, or series
format packet, if present, will precede all teleplays for a particular series.
Especially in the "Bonanza" and "Little House on the Prairie" series, many
drafts of scripts contain episode information, such as work schedules
(documenting scenes shot per day and hours worked), shooting schedules giving
brief summaries of scenes shot and including props and cast needed, cast lists,
and Broadcast Standards remarks. The following order has been established: work
schedule, shooting schedule, day-out-of-days sheet, cast list, outline
approval, Broadcast standards remarks, set sketches, and character/set lists.
Much of this information will be of interest to the television historian.
Shooting schedules are often irreverent and humorous in their scene synopses,
as well as being technically informative. Some of the cast lists for "Little
House" scripts include actors' salaries. Also, the N.B.C. Broadcast Standards
remarks, included in many "Bonanza" and a few "Little House" teleplays, provide
interesting information on sex and violence standards.
"Bonanza" and "Little House" scripts comprise more than half of the
teleplay series. The collection of "Little House" scripts, in fact, is nearly
complete through 1977. Following the "Bonanza" scripts are five folders of
information about many writers for "Bonanza" and their story ideas. Included in
the "Little House" section are notes on scripts and information from that
show.
Other television series which are well represented are: "Daniel
Boone," "Boots and Saddles," "Manhunt," "Not For Hire," "Rawhide," "Shannon,"
"Steve Canyon," "The Virginian," and "Voyage to the Bottom of the Sea,"
Outlines and scripts for such series as "The Man from U.N.C.L.E.," "Tarzan,"
"Alcoa Premiere," and "General Electric Theater" illustrate the Hawkins ability
to apply their skills to various formulas. Of particular interest to the
historian may be the Cold War attitude implicit in such series as "Behind
Closed Doors" and "Special Mission"; the series proposal "Vietnam"; the
increasing emphasis on social comment in later "Bonanza" scripts; and the
overall sexism in most of the earlier teleplays. Included in the teleplays is a
script by Gene Roddenberry, of "Star Trek" fame ("The Detectives," Blue
Fire).
Not all of the teleplays in the collection are written by John and/or
Ward Hawkins. This is especially so for "Bonanza" and "Little House," where
John worked as a producer. For other series, such scripts may have been sent to
the Hawkins' as guidelines for writing their own scripts, or for revision work.
The researcher may assume that unless otherwise indicated, all manuscripts and
published works are by both John and Ward Hawkins. A notation of "author
uncertain" indicates that the work in question is by John and/or Ward Hawkins
but it is not clear who; "author unknown" means just that.
Following the teleplays from specified series are other teleplays,
screenplays, and treatments. These include movie scripts, expanded story
treatments, and teleplays for unspecified series. These are in alphabetical
order by title. One radio play by Earl Hammer Jr., producer of "The Waltons,"
follows this section. Next are idea and plot files, which are in alphabetical
order by series. Miscellaneous fragments of manuscripts follow.
Tearsheets of the Hawkins' published stories are in alphabetical order
by title. The advertisements on the tearsheets reflect society from the late
1930s to the late 1950s. Business records including contracts, agreements,
and financial information follow. A free-standing volume, the French version of
The Floods of Fear - Alerte - completes
the collection.
