Biographical Note

Frances Minor was born Frances Anderson, an only child, to Francis Elmo Anderson and Sadie Hilyard on February 8, 1923, in Provident Hospital, Chicago, Illinois. She married Chicago Public Schools administrator Byron Minor. Ms. Minor has collected from, and provided support to, African American artists in Chicago for nearly five decades. She is a board member of the both the South Side Community Art Center and the Vivian G. Harsh Society, and has also been active with the DuSable Museum of African American History. Her role as collector and volunteer in the Chicago arts and community organizations has been wide- reaching and significant.

Her mother was active with many grass-roots community organizations during the 1930s and 40s, while her father was a Pullman porter, active with A. Phillip Randolph and the Brotherhood of Sleeping Car Porters. After losing his position as a Pullman Porter as a result of his union activity, Sadie Anderson secured a political job for her husband. She then went on to Loyola University night school in order to become a social worker. She served the Veterans Administration as a social worker until the Depression, after which she began working with the Works Progress Administration (WPA) as a supervisor for adults.

Her maternal grandfather, William Kidd Hilyard, lived in Philadelphia during the late 1800s. He and a group of men decided to move to Minnesota in order to “make their fortune.” The winter was so cold, that they went back to Pennsylvania for warm clothing, and then went back to Minnesota. Mr. Hilyard became a merchant and a millionaire, and one of the founders of St. Phillips Episcopal Church.. He was also the creator of the unique scrapbooks in the collection.

Her paternal grandfather, Moses Anderson, had three sons, and was a land agent with the Northern Pacific Railroad. He would meet the people in Chicago, and settle them out west, from the Dakotas out to Washington. He created a town called Hilyard near Seattle. He served in the Army and is buried at Fort Snell in Minneapolis.

Because jobs were limited in Minnesota, Sadie Anderson decided to move the family to Chicago. Frances and her family lived on the south side of Chicago for the entirety of her childhood, living first at 53rd Street and Prairie. Because her father was Presbyterian, Frances was baptized in the Presbyterian faith. Later, she and her mother began attending Grace Presbyterian Church, one of the oldest African American Presbyterian churches in Chicago. When the family moved to 58th and Indiana, she began going to the St. Edmund Episcopal Church with her mother, where she remains a member.

Frances Minor attended Bethesda Church at 53rd and Michigan for nursery school. It was bombed at the time she was attending. After nursery school, she attended Carter Elementary School. After receiving threats from two female students, Frances attended Lucy Flowers High School, in lieu of DuSable High School. She was a student at Lucy Flowers for two years, 1937- 1939, but left because of extreme prejudice against African American students there. They were forced to sit in the back of the classroom and were only allowed to take certain classes. Because of this, she transferred to Englewood High School where she remained until graduation.

As a student at Roosevelt night school around 1946, she met Byron Minor. Don Bonaparte, a mutual friend, and Minor were students at John Marshall Law School, and Bonaparte introduced Frances to Byron. They married in 1949. Byron and Frances had three living children, Diane, Courtney, and Frank, and one who is deceased. Her daughter, Diane, is an administrator for Chicago Community Colleges, and Courtney Minor has a law degree, an MBA, and is an administrator for Housing and Urban Development.

Byron Minor and the Minor/Mollison Family

Byron Minor was a Chicago area educator for nearly 40 years. Before World War II, he taught at DuSable High School, and then moved on to Dunbar High School. Later, he became the first black principal of DuSable, and served as a district superintendent.

Byron Minor is linked to the Mollisons, a historically significant family of lawyers and bankers originating in Vicksburg, Mississippi, through his mother Wylie Ethel Mollison. Willis Mollison, Byron’s maternal grandfather, was a prominent lawyer in Vicksburg. When racism in Vicksburg had taken a particularly violent turn, and tarring and feathering blacks in Vicksburg became common, Willis Mollison boarded a train and came to Chicago. Later, he brought the rest of his family to the city.

The Mollisons opened the first African American law firm in the Chicago Loop, on Washington Street. Bryon worked there along with his uncle, Irvin C. Mollison. Judge Irvin C. Mollison was appointed to the United State Customs Court by President Harry S. Truman, the first African American appointed to the position, and the first appointed to the Federal Judiciary as a whole.

The Minors/Mollisons are also linked to the DePriest and the McKissick families. Frances Minor’s papers includes materials regarding all four families, with detailed journal articles, military records, family lineage, and memorabilia documenting the Mollison family’s work in Vicksburg, and with historical documentation regarding the Minors’ plantation history.

The Art Collection

The Minors began collecting art because Frances’ mother and father were both collectors. Francis and Sadie Anderson belonged to a group of friends who traveled and attended social events together, had dinner parties, and belonged to the same clubs. Artist William Edouard Scott was a part of this group. Known to Frances as “Uncle Billy,” Scott would often come to the Anderson house to wash his paintings. After the death of her parents, Frances inherited their art collection, and continued adding to it while working with the South Side Community Art Center.

Byron Minor’s uncle, Irvin Mollison, also collected art, and their collection includes paintings by Archibald Motley, who was a friend of Irvin’s. After his death, Irvin Mollison’s art collection was donated to Spelman College in Atlanta, and they, in turn, sent a few of the paintings back to Byron and Frances.

In 1941, Frances’ mother went to the South Side Community Art Center (SSCAC) to watch Eleanor Roosevelt dedicate the building. Later, when Frances married, she learned that her husband Byron was a member of the SSCAC’s Camera Club, and that Gordon Parks was his instructor. Frank London Brown was also in the photography club at that time.

In the 1950s, Frances officially joined the SSCAC, having been urged to do so by artists Ramon Price, Earnest Alexander, and family friend William E. Scott. At the time Frances joined the SSCAC, it was poorly organized and lacking funding. She worked with Grace Lemmie, Fern Gayden and others to keep it going. They paid for postage and organized events. As her work there continued, she began to buy art from new artists who would later become well known.

Scope and Content Note

The Frances Minor Papers are composed chiefly of materials on artists, art shows, gallery materials, and newspaper clippings collected from the 1950s to 2008. Also included are pamphlets, photographs, and ephemera from throughout Byron and Frances’ life together, and from Byron’s career with the Chicago Public Schools. The collection has been divided into 18 series: Biography, Sadie Anderson’s papers, Correspondence, Grants and Proposals, Programs, Artists Subject Files, Art and Artists Files, South Side Community Art Center, Organizations, Serials, Clippings, Pamphlets, Books, Memorabilia, Photographs and Oversized. Oversized Clippings and Serials are located in separate containers near the end of the arrangement.

The Biography series is divided into three categories: Frances Minor, Byron Minor, and materials related to both parties. This series includes birth and death records, family obituaries, and military records for Byron Minor and Colonel J.W. Welbourne. Highlights also included in the Biography series, of particular interest, are several documents tracking family lineage.

The Papers of Sadie Anderson series highlights documents collected by Sadie Anderson during her work with the WPA, and her later service as social worker. Of particular interest in this series are the program books produced by the WPA, and a rare issue of Illinois Labor Notes dedicated to the National Negro Conference in 1936.

The Correspondence series includes a wide variety of exchanges, the majority of which are from the United States Army, and from artists and friends.

The Grants and Proposals series includes two applications to the Black Metropolis Consortium, a proposal for an African American Military Museum, an application for a Timuel Black Fellowship, and Bronzeville Community Improvement plans.

The Programs series includes over fifty art and community programs from a wide geographic dispersal, various dedications such as the dedication ceremony for the Irvin C. Mollison School and the Charles Drew School, along with other organizations of which Frances and Byron were a part.

The Artists Subject Files include materials related to specific artists, sorted by artist name. These files include clippings, obituaries, art show information, and resumes.

Art and Artists Files is a collection of art-related materials, various art show programs that include multiple artists, newspaper clippings regarding various art-related events, and catalogs from galleries. This series includes many hard to find show materials dating back to the 1950s.

The South Side Community Art Center (SSCAC) series is an aggregation of all materials in the papers relating specifically to the operations and events of the SSCAC. Included in this series are art-related materials, various art show programs that include multiple artists, newspaper clippings, and catalogs from galleries. This series includes many hard to find show materials dating back to the 1950s.

The Organization Files series includes information on the many organizations with which Byron and Frances were affiliated. They are sorted alphabetically. Among these organizations are Provident Hospital, the DuSable Museum, The Original 40 Club, and the Chicago Principals Club.

Serials is a collection of magazines and entire issues of newspapers collected by Frances Minor between the late 1930s and the late 1980s. Included in this series are many special issues of Callaloo, N’Digo Magazine, The Chicago Tribune and Sun-Times, along with various other newspapers, magazines, and journals.

The Clippings series, one of the largest in the collection, contains articles from various newspapers and articles dating back to the 1930s, and covers local events, World War II news, local and national politics, local education news, and clippings covering events which Frances and Byron attended.

The Pamphlet series is comprised primarily writings relating to black history and culture, travel, and writings by poets and artists.

The Books series includes just over twenty titles, most relating to African and African American culture and history, and poetry books written by local authors. Notable are the compositions written by Margaret Burroughs, noted artist, writer, teacher, and co-founder of the DuSable Museum of African American History.

The collection of Memorabilia includes three early yearbooks from Hyde Park High School, a Dunbar High School yearbook, and various black history month ephemera.

Finally, there are over 250 Photographs in the collection, showing various family members and social functions, school dedications, Byron Minor during his tenure as Superintendent, as well as photos taken by Bryon both during and after his photography class at the SSCAC. Noteworthy are the collection of Hi-Jinks photos taken during Byron’s time at DuSable High School, and an extensive number of photos from Cab Calloway’s concert at The Regal in 1940.
