Biographical Note
Louis Kermit Sheets was a pacifist artist, printer, actor, director,
and stage designer who contributed greatly to the early development of the San
Francisco Renaissance in the late 1940s. He was born in California's Imperial
Valley on August 14, 1915, grew up in Fresno, and graduated from Chapman
College in 1936. Between January 1942 and January 1946 he served as a
conscientious objector in CPS camp 21 (Cascade Locks at Wyeth on the Columbia
River) and camp 56 (Waldport on the Oregon Coast). At Wyeth he co-edited
The Illiteratijournal and the camp
newsletter
The Columbian, and wrote and performed in
the satirical play
Mikado in CPS. At Waldport he and his
co-editor Kemper Nomland joined William Everson's Fine Arts Group, where he was
closely involved in the printing of the Untide Press and was a key member of
the high quality theater group in the camp.
Many of the camp theater personnel settled in San Francisco in 1946,
founding the Interplayers in association with Adrian Wilson, Joyce Lancaster
Wilson and other colleagues from the Waldport camp. At the same time, in
collaboration with poet James Broughton, he founded the Centaur Press,
publishing poetry and drama by Broughton, Anais Nin, Robert Duncan, Glen
Coffield, Madeline Gleason, and Muriel Rukeyser. In the early 1950s he acted in
Broughton's films
The Pleasure Garden (winner of a Cannes
Festival Award) and
Loony Tom the Happy Lover. Returning from
Europe in 1955, he became managing director of The Playhouse, until the early
1960s, mounting many successful productions, including Helen Adam’s
long-running
San Francisco’s Burning (December 1961-
June 1962) with music by Warner Jepson. In 1965 he married Jane Steckle, who
died in 1999. From 1970 to 1980 he was director of the Center at the Lighthouse
for the Blind. After retirement he spent much of the 1980s in writing novels
and short stories and traveling with Jane. He died on April 6, 2006 in San
Francisco.
The collection has been assembled with generous assistance from Norma
Miller, and early participant as actor and director in the Interplayers and
Playhouse companies, and a lifelong friend of Kermit Sheets.
Content Description
The collection consists of drafts and final typescripts of poetry,
short stories, novels, and plays; of published materials, notably of the
Centaur Press; of correspondence and documentation relating particularly to
Civilian Public Service (1941 onwards), to the Centaur Press (1949 onwards), to
Broughton and Farallone Films (1950-1952), and to the three theater groups The
Interplayers, The Playhouse, and the Center at The Lighthouse for the Blind
(1947-1981). Also numerous photographs relating to the CPS camps and to theater
productions, and family and personal photographs from foreign travel.
