  • Prolific writer Ernest Hemingway was also a pack rat. Saving “old passports and used bullfight tickets,” he left behind “one of the longest paper trails of any author.” The author’s many mementos are now on display at the exhibit, “Ernest Hemingway: Between Two Wars” at the Morgan Library & Museum, Manhattan through Jan. 31, and then at the John F. Kennedy Presidential Library and Museum in Boston. Via The New York Times.
