Correspondence, 1960-1991

This series consists of letters to and from Thomas F. Walsh as well as some miscellaneous materials (drafts of scholarly articles, correspondence from others, applications) related to individual correspondence files. Letters printed from Walsh's computer disks both by him and by his wife after his death have been added to the files of letters with individuals. Also, some letters to Walsh originally filed in his personal correspondence file have been moved to the file for a specific individual. There are individual files for persons (i.e., Virginia Spencer Carr, Mary Louis Doherty, Joan Givner, etc.), files for governmental agencies and institutions (National Endowment for the Humanities, University of Illinois Press), and subject files (Searching Correspondence with Libraries, Uncollected Prose of KAP). The correspondence with the University of Texas Press and with various other presses and institutions concerning Katherine Anne Porter and Mexico is contained in Series 3.
