Donald Hunter was Director of the MRC Department for Research in Industrial Medicine, at the London Hospital, and author of Diseases of Occupations. Born, 1898; Student at the London Hospital, 1915; Surgeon-probationer RNVR HMS Faulknor, 1918; MB BS London, MRCS LRCP, 1920; MD London, 1922; Member of RCP, 1923; Research fellowship, Harvard, 1926; Assistant Physician, London Hospital, 1927; FRCP, 1929; Goulstonian Lecture, RCP, 1930; Curator of London Hospital Medical School Museum, 1933-1963; Croonian Lecture, RCP, 1942; Director of the MRC Department for Research in Industrial Medicine at the London Hospital, 1943; First editor of British Journal of Industrial Medicine, 1944; Hon DIH Society of Apothecaries, 1960; Retirement from London Hospital, 1963; Middlesex Hospital, lecturing on occupational diseases, 1963-1967; Guy's Hospital, lecturing on occupational diseases, 1967-1971; died, 1977.

These papers were given to the Contemporary Medical Archives Centre in November 1987 by Donald Hunter's daughter, Dr Elizabeth McLean, and son, Dr Peter Hunter. Previously they had been stored at the London Hospital Medical College. Some papers remain with Dr Peter Hunter, pending final deposit in the Wellcome Library. Copies of some similar historical notes by Hunter are held by the Royal London Hospital archives, which also holds his student records and those of his wife (MC/S/1/17), and the Medical College pathology museum displays some of his specimens relating to lead and arsenic poisoning.

Papers of Donald Hunter, 1910-1977. There are two large, parallel series of case files and reference files (section C) relating to a wide range of conditions, most but not all connected with occupational hazards and many being dermatological or osteopathic, as well as factory visit notes, correspondence, both personal and professional, publications, writings, and audio-visual material.

On arrival the papers were in a reasonable state of order, mainly comprising two large, parallel series of case files and reference files (section C). The other papers included correspondence, both personal and professional, publications, writings, and audio-visual material. Unfortunately Hunter's departmental correspondence appears to be incomplete. Duplicate material and material of a purely personal or family nature was removed and returned to Dr McLean. Two boxes of books from Hunter's library were placed in the printed books department of the Institute Library, and a small number of prints were placed with the Iconographic Department.

Divided into sections as follows:

A Personal And Biographical:1 Personal correspondence 1910-1969; 2 Engagement diaries and address books 1912-1977; 3 Student notebooks 1912-1923; 4 Accounts and visitors' books 1920-1973; 5 Certificates.

B General Correspondence 1929-1974

C Case Notes And Reference Files: 1 Case notes 1905-1968; 2 Reference files 1926-1952.

The majority of the papers are available subject to the usual conditions of access to Archives and Manuscripts material, by prior appointment with Archives and Manuscripts staff and after the completion of a Reader's Undertaking. Please note that various files are closed until different dates because they contain sensitive personal data.

Photocopies/photographs/microfilm are supplied for private research only at the Archivist's discretion.
