|
| Mildred Gwin was born on January 31, 1903 in
Greenwood, Miss. to Sally Barnes Humphreys and Samuel Lizzie Gwin, a prominent
lawyer and cotton planter in the Mississippi Delta region. Mildred attended
the National Cathedral School in Washington, D.C., and after graduation
in 1921 returned to Mississippi to study law in her father's office. In
1923 she married Stephen Barnwell, a cotton broker of Gastonia, N.C. The
couple had one child, Gwin Barnwell, but they divorced in November 1937.
Eight years later Mildred Gwin married Elmer F. Andrews, who died in 1964.
Mildred Andrews began work in the textile industry in 1930 with the Gaston
County Yarn Spinners Association, later renamed the Southern Combed Yarn
Spinners Association (SCYSA). She also took a night job in the spinning
room of a cotton mill in order to learn mill techniques. Andrews advanced
to executive secretary of the SCYSA in 1936 and held this position for ten
years. During World War II she worked as a consultant on textiles to the
U.S. Army Office of Quartermaster General and served on the War Production
Board's Committee on Industrial Salvage. During the years 1946 to 1952,
Andrews worked as a field representative with the public relations firm
Dudley, Anderson, and Yutzy, served on the Textile Committee on Public Relations,
and helped run the Textile Information Service. |
| |
| In 1952, Andrews joined the American Textile
Machinery Association (ATMA) as director of public relations, and became
executive secretary of the organization in 1955. While associated with ATMA,
she managed the American Textile Machinery Exhibitions-International from
1952 through 1965. During this period she remained active in other fields
and with other organizations, directing publicity for the Tungsten Institute
in the mid-1950s. She retired from the ATMA in 1968, but continued to work
part-time as a consultant and as assistant to the president of ATMA. |
| |
| Andrews published numerous books and articles
regarding the textile industry, including Faces We See (1939), Cotton Magic
(1944), Profit Life of Textile Machinery (1957), and The Men and the Mills:
A History of the Southern Textile Industry (published posthumously in 1987),
and articles for newspapers, industry journals, and Encyclopaedia Britannica.
Written in the 1950s, The Textile Almanac, though never published, provided
material for later articles and for The Men and the Mills. She also wrote
Tungsten: The Story of an Indispensable Metal (1955) for the Tungsten Institute. |
| |
| In 1970, Andrews retired from the ATMA and settled
in Charlotte, N.C. She remained active, writing The Men and the Mills and
American Textiles, a serialized history of the textile industry which appeared
in the Southern Textile News. She also ran a public relations firm, Andrewtex,
consulted for the first International Trade Mart in Honduras, and lectured
on textile machinery in Asian countries. In North Carolina, Andrews participated
in civic organizations, church activities, museum fund raising, and various
charity functions. Mildred Andrews died in October 1984. |
| |
| |
|
|
| |
| This collection contains material created by
Mildred Andrews to support her publishing interests, and a smaller quantity
of materials created or received by Andrews during her term as executive
secretary of the American Textile Machinery Association (ATMA). There is
little material which documents her early career through the late 1950s,
or her later activities after the mid 1970s. |
| |
| The material primarily documents her publishing
activities, including drafts of American Textiles and The Men and the Mills,
her administration of ATMA Exhibitions, and other activities connected with
her position as executive secretary of the ATMA. The photographs primarily
document ATMA international exhibitions and other ATMA meetings and activities.
The collection is organized in three series: |
| |
| Series 1: Correspondence and
Office Records (1942-1982), contains files related to Andrews'
service as ATMA executive secretary, international trade missions and exhibitions,
Andrewtex, and a small quantity of textile industry publications. |
| |
| Series 2: Publication Materials
(1976-1979), contains various stages of drafts of her writing for American
Textiles and The Men and The Mills. |
