Zustand: Good. Als. 265 x 185mm., sheet size. Letter from Hemingway's son Gregory following the death of his father on July 2, 1961 asking "To Whom it May Concern" to help Roberto Herrera, Hemingway's friend and secretary in [settling the estate.].Gregory Hancock Hemingway (November 12, 1931 - October 1, 2001), also known as Gloria Hemingway in later life, was the third and youngest child of author Ernest Hemingway and Pauline Pfeiffer.The tragic death in 2001 of Ernest Hemingway's son revealed him/her to have long been addicted to fetishistic transvestism. At some point Gregory had one breast implanted and later on underwent SRS. However, he only occasionally dressed as a woman in public, and was referred to by the Hemingway family as Gregory (rather than Gloria or Vanessa, names he sometimes used when dressed as a female). Even after SRS he usually appeared in public as a man, as in this photo with his wife Ida, in 1999. Such is often the case when a fetishistic man undergoes SRS but doesn't have any deep need to take on a female social role. For more about other cases of such transition failures after SRS.In the course of his first four marriages, Gregory Hemingway had eight children: Patrick, Edward, Sean, Brendan, Vanessa, Maria, John, and Lorian. One of his marriages, to Valerie Danby-Smith, Ernest Hemingway's secretary, lasted almost 20 years Gregory's fourth marriage, to Ida Mae Galliher, ended in divorce in 1995 after three years, though they continued to live together and remarried in 1997.ASSOCIATED PRESS October 4, 2001 MIAMI - Novelist Ernest Hemingway's troubled youngest son died of natural causes in a jail cell. He was 69.Gregory Hemingway, a former doctor also known as Gloria Hemingway, was found dead at 5:45 a.m. Monday, said Janelle Hall, a spokeswoman for the county corrections department. He had been arrested last week, at least his third arrest in the county.He often dressed as a woman, and Hall said jail officials had classified him as a woman and believe he had undergone a sex change operation. He died in the women's section of the jail.Police said family members, whose names they did not make public, confirmed the deceased was Ernest Hemingway's son.The elder Hemingway killed himself in 1961. A book Gregory Hemingway wrote about his father, "Papa: A Personal Memoir," was published in 1976. It had a preface by Norman Mailer.Roberto Herrera Sotolongo, Hemingway's friend and personal secretary, whom Hemingway met in 1942, when Herrera became a crewmember aboard ''Pilar'', at the height of World War II when Hemingway patrolled the Gulf Stream for German submarines for the U.S. government. After Hemingway's death in 1961, Herrera was appointed to represent his affairs in Cuba, including the deeding of the property and contents of ''Il Finca Vigia'' to the Cuban people ''as a place of opportunity for wider education and research, to be maintained in his memory.'' The property became a museum, and Herrera acted as its Conservator until his death in 1970. The candid photo is of two men on the veranda of Hemingway's Havana home, Finca La Vigia.Herrera was Hemingway's friend, personal secretary, and manager of Finca La Vigia, Hemingway's Cuban property. Herrera and Hemingway became good friends while sharing their mutual interests in hunting, fishing aboard the "Pilar", and drinking at their favorite bar, La Floridita, in Havana.They also attended bullfights together, and Herrera, an avid photographer, captured many photos and movies of all these activities. Hemingway called Herrera "El Monstruo" (the Monster), and signed much of his correspondence to Herrera "Mr. Papa". By the mid-1940s, Hemingway was travelling extensively and for long periods of time, leaving his Cuban home, Finca La Vigia (Lookout Farm), in the hands of Herrera. After Hemingway's 1961 suicide, Herrera was appointed to represent Hemingway's affairs in Cuba, including the deeding of the property and contents of "Finca La Vigia" to the Cuban people "as a place. …
