Title	Malabar Farm Photographs
Subject	Geography and Natural Resources Agriculture Farms Houses Bromfield, Louis, 1896-1956
Place	Lucas (Ohio) Richland County (Ohio)
Description	Malabar Farm, shown in these three photographs, was the home of Ohio author, farmer, and conservationist Louis Bromfield. Bromfield (1896-1956) received the Pulitzer Prize for his book Early Autumn in 1927 and wrote 30 best-selling books during his 32-year literary career. In 1939, he created his dream, Malabar Farm, where he could demonstrate sound soil and water conservation practices and teach others about sustainable agriculture. Many Hollywood celebrities visited the farm, and Humphrey Bogart and Lauren Bacall were married there. Bromfield's 32-room country mansion is preserved exactly the way he left it upon his death in 1956 and includes personal artifacts, books, photographs, original paintings, antique furniture, and a 914-acre working farm complete with livestock and crops.The photographs are 5" x 4" (12.7 x 10.16 cm).
