Papers of Kouzmanoff, a former nun, adult educator, and psychotherapist primarily relating to her role in the establishment and operation of the Mind's Eye Institute (MEI) in Brookfield, Wisconsin and brief papers of her husband John Kouzmanoff (1930-1995). The Mind's Eye Institute was a non-profit membership organization formed in 1988 and disbanded in 1999 that attempted to enhance inner personal development through Jungian psychoanalysis and techniques of the “New Age” philosophy. The records documenting MEI include articles of incorporation, minutes and other policy records, newsletters, brochures and other publicity materials, and video and sound recordings of special group programs. Scattered papers including photocopied scrapbooks, writings, additional sound recordings, and biographical materials contain information on Kouzmanoff's own life and ideas as well as her role in MEI. Political and civil rights activist John Kouzmanoff is documented by a 1985 reminiscence of participation in several Chicago civil rights marches with Martin Luther King, Jr., and a file of mailings and papers collected as a result of his role as a Jesse Jackson delegate to the 1988 National Democratic Party Convention. Several photographs of the Kouzmanoffs have been filed in the Visual Materials Name File in Madison. English
