Container Title
M2009-043
Part 4 (M2009-043, Audio 1498A, CC 456-CC 457): Additions, 1937-2007
Physical Description: 9.9 cubic feet (19 archives boxes and 9 card boxes), 0.2 cubic feet of photographs, 2 film reels (16 mm), 2 videocassettes, 30 audio cassettes, 1 reel-to-reel audio tape, and 39 computer diskettes (5.25 inch) 
Scope and Content Note: Additions, 1937-2007, consisting of diaries, texts of occasional articles and speeches by Fannie Taylor, scrapbooks, personal correpondence; papers related to Fannie Taylor's activities in Madison and Shorewood Hills, Wisconsin; papers related to her work for the Association of Performing Arts Presenters, the Wisconsin Academy of Arts, Sciences and Letters, and the National Endowment for the Arts.
Series: Diaries, 1941-2006
Scope and Content Note: Several slightly different kinds of records are grouped here: address books (including one card-index file of addresses and other contact information); appointment books; expenditure records; jottings books; and diaries recording the day's events day by day (but rarely every day). The last are mostly in small loose-leaf ring binders, without pre-printed dates. As some of the pages seems to have been misplaced, and Professor Taylor did not usually include the year in her handwritten dates, it is often hard to determine the proper sequence.
Access Restrictions: Diaries (Boxes 1-10) are closed until January 1, 2033.
