Edward St. John Gorey (1925-2000) was an American author and artist, primarily known for his children’s stories and illustrations
of children’s books, although he also produced adult-oriented work. Sometime around 1977, Gorey established a company, Doomed
Enterprises, to handle all matters related to publication and licensing of his work. This collection consists primarily of
records of Andreas Brown's and the Gotham Book Mart's records relating to Doomed Enterprises, documents relating to the execution
of the Edward Gorey estate after 2000 (for which Brown served as an executor), and other documents and artifacts documenting
Gorey’s public image and legacy.
