Collection Overview
The papers of Kate Millett span the years
1912-2002, with the bulk of the
papers dating between 1951 and 2001. The collection is arranged into the
following series: Correspondence (CLOSED); Writings and Speeches; Subject
Files; Art Files ; Farm Papers; Course Materials ; Personal Files; Documentary
Film:
Three Lives (1970); Clippings; Audiovisual
Materials; Photographic Materials; Ephemera; and Printed Materials. The
collection provides rich documentation of Millett's activities as a feminist
activist, artist, and author of numerous works, including
Sexual Politics, whose publication
established her as one of the founding 20th century feminists. Other works for
which supporting materials exist are
The Loony-bin Trip,
Flying, and
The Basement.
The collection reflects the intensely personal nature of much of
Millett's work and the frequent fusion of her personal, political, and
professional interests. There are many files of personal and literary
correspondence, including significant exchanges with
Ti-Grace Atkinson,
Rita Mae Brown,
Phyllis Chesler,
Andrea Dworkin,
Cynthia McAdams,
Yoko Ono,
Alix Kates Shulman, and
Gloria Steinem, and many other activists, writers,
artists, friends, lovers, and family. Additional series include writings by
other authors; extensive topical files; materials documenting Millett's work as
an artist; files relating to her New York farm and artists' colony; course
materials from Millett's student and teaching careers; and scripts and other
papers relating to Millett's little-known
documentary film,
Three Lives. Other materials document her
relationship with her mother during the last years of her mother's life, also
the topic of her book,
Mother Millett. Subject files contain
materials relating to Millett's involvement with the
gay and lesbian communities, her research on
prisons and
torture, and her diagnosis with
bipolar disorder and subsequent involvement in
anti-psychiatry activism. Audiovisual materials
include
audio and
video recordings of Millett's lectures, speeches,
and many conversations with activists, friends, and family; many
photographs round out the visual components of the
collection. There are also extensive printed materials such as clippings,
posters,
newsletters, and
serial publications.
Seen in a broader context, Millett's papers also provide important
documentation of the history of the
feminist movement and
feminist theory in the United States, including the
history of the
National Organization for Women. Materials in the
collection also cover
feminism and the social conditions for women around
the globe, especially in
France,
Italy, and the Middle East -- most notably
Iran, where Millett traveled in the seventies.
The collection includes some correspondence, book drafts, and other
writings in electronic form. Documents in electronic formats are included in
the container list under the appropriate series. The electronic files are
located on the Special Collections server. Consult a reference archivist for
access to them.
The Correspondence Series is CLOSED to
research until the year 2020.
Drafts and other materials relating to Millett's published works are
housed in eponymous subseries in the Writings and Speeches
Series . Other subseries include Interviews, Speeches, Engagements, and
Writings by Others. The extensive correspondence in this series relating to
Millett's public appearances suggests the importance of this aspect of her
professional life, while the many folders of correspondence from fans document
the impact that Millett's writings had on many of her readers' lives.
The Subject Files Series is arranged into
the following subseries:
Prisons,
Psychiatric Survivors Movement,
Torture,
Travel,
Women's Archives Project,
Women's Rights Movement,and General Subject Files.
It primarily consists of materials collected and arranged by Millett that
document her political activities as a feminist,
mental health reformer, and social activist;
information that Millett gathered for her writings and other projects; and
personal papers related to travel, funding for her farm, and other issues.
There are detailed records dating from the late 1960s to the mid-1970s of
Millett's involvement in the
National Organization for Women and other feminist
groups, first in
New York and later in
California. Local and national self-advocacy
organizations for those diagnosed with
mental illness are also well-represented for the
period from the mid-1980s to the mid-1990s.
Millett's career as a sculptor and artist is documented in the
Art Files Series , which houses correspondence,
art show announcements, financial records, and other
materials. There is substantial documentation of Millett's involvement in the
cooperative
Noho Gallery and her sales of posters and silk
screens through advertising in
feminist publications. There is a small amount of
material related to Millett's involvement in the
Fluxus art movement, which emerged in New York
during the 1960s and spread to Europe and then Japan (Yoko Ono was one of its
proponents).
The Farm Papers Series includes
correspondence and administrative records from Millett's farm in
Poughkeepsie, New York. The farm is run as a
women's cooperative and artists' colony, with writers and artists applying for
residency and working on the farm. The Correspondence Subseries provides a
portrait of Millett's relationships with former farm residents, and includes
application materials for prospective residents. The Administrative Files
Subseries include some materials on the farm's financial difficulties, as well
as a variety of records related to the day-to-day operation of the farm and its
Christmas tree operation.
Class notes, papers, and records from Millett's work as a student and
as a professor are found in the Course Materials Series
. The bulk of the series consists of reading notes, lecture notes, and
student papers by Millett and her students. Records of Millett's student work
are primarily from the
University of Minnesota and
Oxford University. Her most well-documented
teaching positions were at
Barnard College and the
California State University at Sacramento. In
addition to class records, the series contains some correspondence and
university-related records documenting Millett's life as a student and her
activities as a professor. The course materials from Millett's graduate work
and teaching positions in the 1960s and 1970s provide evidence of her
increasing feminist involvement and insight into the evolution of her work,
Sexual Politics.
The Personal Files Series is arranged into
a number of subseries. The most substantial of these is the Loft Papers, which
houses records related to Millett's artist's loft in the
Cooper Square area of
New York City. These records document her
involvement in neighborhood groups and artists' organizations working to
protect the area from development, and provide an excellent view of
New York City neighborhood activism on development
issues. There are smaller groups of records related to Millett's financial,
legal, and medical affairs, and some personal papers of Millett's mother
Helen Millett.
The Documentary Film:
Three Lives Series contains
records of a
documentary film produced by Millett and featuring
Millett's sister
Mallory Millett-Jones,
Lillian Shreve, and
Robin Mide. The film led to a lawsuit over the
distribution of profits among the various women involved. The series consists
of production materials, distribution and financial records, and some legal
correspondence. A viewing copy of the film is not currently available in this
collection.
The Clippings Series chiefly consists of
articles covering Millett's 1979 visit to and expulsion from
Iran, and provides insights into Iranian
feminism and the Iranian political situation during
that period. Sources include the American, French, and (to a lesser extent)
Persian-language media. A second focus of the series is media coverage of
Millett's activities and projects, especially during the 1970s. Other clippings
are related to Millett's wide-ranging personal and professional interests,
especially prison reform and the status of women around the world. The series
also includes a number of grassroots publications and newsletters.
The bulk of the Audiovisual Materials Series
consists of audio recordings of Millett's public appearances and of
private conversations and social events involving Millett. The years 1979 and
1980 are particularly well represented. Millett made recordings almost daily
during and after her 1979 visit to
Iran and during the late summer of 1980. There are
also audio recordings of Millett's mother and other family members, oral
interviews for Millett's research on
torture, and dictated drafts of
A.D. and
The Loony-bin Trip. Other materials in
this series include videotapes of interviews and television shows, and of
several New York City functions for which Millett was a reader or speaker. Some
materials in this series may not be immediately available, as use copies may
need to be made of original recordings.
The Photographic Materials Series consist
primarily of photographs taken by others and sent to Millett. The professional
photographers among Millett's acquaintance, including
Cynthia MacAdams and
Jill Krementz, took a number of portraits of
Millett. Photographs most likely taken by Millett include a large number of
slides dating from 1980, documenting the same time period as many of the
audiotapes in the Audiovisual Materials Series. There are a limited number of
photographs from Millett's childhood and early adulthood.
Finally, the Printed Materials Series
consists of magazines and journals, newspapers, and a small number of books
collected by Millett. Many periodicals contain articles by or about Millett.
The series includes scattered issues of various local and ephemeral periodicals
from the feminist movement, the
lesbian community, and the
psychiatric survivors movement. Printed materials
can also be found scattered throughout the collection, particularly in the
Subject Files and Clippings
Series. In order to provide better housing, an extensive group of
printed materials, chiefly books by feminists, has been separated from the Kate
Millett Papers and housed with the Rare Books, Manuscript and Special
Collections Library's rare materials. Please consult with the reference
librarians to see the title list.
The papers of Kate Millett arrived together with a collection of over
270 pieces of Millett's artwork. Most of the pieces consist of ink drawings,
calligraphy, and prints. There are also sculptures and other three-dimensional
works, some of which formed part of an installation representing events that
surrounded the murder of Sylvia Likens, also the subject of Millett's book,
The Basement. A full inventory of the
artwork is located in the Research Room of the library; please contact the
Research Services staff.

Detailed Description of Collection
Correspondence Series (CLOSED),
1958-1999 and
undated
[CLOSED to use until 2020.]
Writings and Speeches Series,
1928-2001 and
undated,
bulk 1968-1998
(42 boxes)
Contains drafts, notes, correspondence, and other materials
related to Millett's books, speeches, interviews, and minor writings.
Manuscripts of fiction, non-fiction, and poetry by other authors can be found
in the Writings by Others Subseries at the end of the series, arranged by
author name.
Materials on
Sexual Politics,
Flying,
Sita,
The Basement,
The Loony-bin Trip,
The Politics of Cruelty, and
Mother Millett are located in
individual subseries. Less extensive material on Millett's other published
books can be found at the beginning of the Other Writings Subseries. For each
published book, undated drafts and notes are placed first, followed by book
reviews, fan mail, contracts, and material collected by Millett as background
for the book. Book drafts are sometimes labeled by letter, as in "draft A" or
"draft B." This does not imply that one was written before the other, but only
gives an order to their presentation.
The Other Writings Subseries also includes material on Millett's
articles and unpublished manuscripts. The Interviews Subseries contains
correspondence, clippings, and a small number of transcripts of interviews with
Millett. The Speeches Subseries includes Millett's speech notes and drafts,
along with related records, while the Engagements Subseries primarily consists
of correspondence about speaking engagements and material from conferences in
which Millett participated. These subseries are in chronological order.
The series includes some documents in
electronic format. In general, electronic
documents are grouped with folders containing related paper documents. If there
is no corresponding folder, the documents are marked "electronic format only."
Electronic versions of book drafts are in chronological order together with
other dated material. For each electronic document, the container list provides
the file name, the date the file was last modified, and the number assigned to
the original computer disk on which the file was received. Consult a reference
archivist for access to electronic documents.
Millett's own folder labels have been retained when possible.
Additional correspondence from readers, correspondence with publishers and
Millett's agent, and correspondence regarding articles and speeches by Millett
can be found in the Correspondence Series. Research material for
Going to Iran and additional book
reviews, especially for
Sexual Politics, are located in the
Clippings Series. The Printed Material Series includes additional reviews,
interviews, and articles by Millett. Audio recordings for drafts of
The Loony-bin Trip and
A.D. are located in the Audiovisual
Material Series. The Audiovisual Series also includes recordings of Millett's
speeches, readings, and interviews.

Subject Files Series,
1957-2002 and
undated
(18 boxes)
The Subject Files primarily include records from Millett's
political involvements as a feminist, a
mental health reformer, and a social activist;
information that Millett collected for her writings and other projects; and
personal papers related to
travel, funding for the farm, and other issues.
The early
women's rights movement, from the late 1960s to
the mid-1970s, is strongly represented. Various
self-advocacy organizations within the
psychiatric survivors movement, primarily from
the mid 1980s to the mid 1990s, are also well-represented. The series includes
the following subseries:
Prisons,
Psychiatric Survivors Movement,
Torture,
Travel, Women's Archives Project, and
Women's Rights Movement. Within each subseries,
files are organized in alphabetical order. General subject files are placed at
the end of the series in alphabetical order. Millett's own folder titles have
been retained where possible.
The series includes some documents in
electronic format. Electronic documents are
grouped with folders containing related paper documents. If there is no
corresponding folder, the documents are marked "electronic format only." For
each document, the container list provides the file name, the date the file was
last modified, and the number assigned to the original computer disk on which
the file was received. Consult a reference archivist for access to electronic
documents.

(5 boxes)
The Art Files Series contains correspondence, art show
announcements, financial records, and other materials related to Millett's work
as a sculptor and artist. Included also are some materials on other artists'
work. Millett's activities as a member of the cooperative
Noho Gallery are documented, and there are
some materials from her involvement in the
Fluxus movement. There are detailed records of
Millett's direct sales of posters and silk screens, including fan letters from
individuals who saw Millett's posters advertised in
Ms. magazine and other women's media
outlets. Files in this series have not been arranged.
The series includes some documents in
electronic format. Electronic documents are
grouped with folders containing related paper documents. If there is no
corresponding folder, the documents are marked "electronic format only." For
each document, the container list provides the file name, the date the file was
last modified, and the number assigned to the original computer disk on which
the file was received. Consult a reference archivist for access to electronic
documents.
See the Subject Files for additional material on other artists'
shows and on Millett's poster sales.

The Farm is a
women's art colony and
farm collective in
Poughkeepsie, New York, founded and operated
by Kate Millett. The series is divided into correspondence and administrative
files. The correspondence consists chiefly of letters from friends and former
students of Millett, and applications for residency. It is arranged
chronologically, with application materials, including writing samples and
artwork from prospective residents, placed at the end of the Correspondence
Subseries. Administrative files are arranged chronologically at the end of the
series. The administrative files consist of business records, plus a wide
variety of other material related to the operation of the farm. This includes
correspondence with past residents who volunteered to help with farmwork,
publicity material on the farm and its Christmas tree sales, and Millett's
personal account of the difficulties of running the farm in the early 1990s.
Additional material on efforts to raise funds in the early 1990s can be found
in the Women's Archives Project Subseries of the Subject Files.
The series includes some documents in
electronic format. Electronic documents are
grouped with folders containing related paper documents. If there is no
corresponding folder, the documents are marked "electronic format only." For
each document, the container list provides the file name, the date the file was
last modified, and the number assigned to the original computer disk on which
the file was received. Consult a reference archivist for access to electronic
documents.

Course Materials Series,
1951-1999 and
undated
(13 boxes)
The bulk of this series consists of reading notes and lecture
notes from Millett's work as a student and as a professor. The series also
contains Millett's student papers, papers written by her own students, and
correspondence and other material related to her university activities.
Millett's undergraduate work at the
University of Minnesota and
Oxford University is well represented, and
some material is available from Millett's graduate work at
Columbia University. Teaching materials are
primarily from Millett's work at
Barnard College and
California State University at Sacramento.
The series is divided into two subseries for Millett's student
work and teaching materials, and is in chronological order within each
subseries. However, it is sometimes unclear whether notes from the 1960s
represent student or teaching work, since Millett both taught and completed her
graduate work during this period.
The series includes some documents in
electronic format. Electronic documents are
grouped with folders containing related paper documents. If there is no
corresponding folder, the documents are marked "electronic format only." For
each document, the container list provides the file name, the date the file was
last modified, and the number assigned to the original computer disk on which
the file was received. Consult a reference archivist for access to electronic
documents.

to preserve
artists' lofts in that area. Records are
arranged chronologically within each subseries.
The series includes some documents in
electronic format. Electronic documents are
grouped with folders containing related paper documents. If there is no
corresponding folder, the documents are marked "electronic format only." For
each document, the container list provides the file name, the date the file was
last modified, and the number assigned to the original computer disk on which
the file was received. Consult a reference archivist for access to electronic
documents.
Additional personal records can be found throughout the
collection. See also the Correspondence, Subject, Writings and Speeches, and

Documentary Film:
Three Lives (1970) Series,
1970-1991 and
undated
(2 boxes)
Three Lives was a
documentary film produced by Millett and featuring
Millett's sister
Mallory Millett-Jones,
Lillian Shreve, and
Robin Mide. The film led to a lawsuit over the
distribution of profits among the various women involved. The series consists
of production material, distribution and financial records, and some legal
correspondence. Undated production material are placed first, followed by other
records in chronological order. A 16mm audio recording from the film production
is located in the Audiovisual Materials Series. A viewing copy of the film is
not currently available.

Clippings Series,
1970s-1980 and
undated
(3 boxes)
Newspaper and magazine clippings covering Millett's 1979 visit to
and expulsion from
Iran, Iranian
feminism, and the Iranian political situation
during that period. A wide spectrum of American, French, and (to a lesser
extent) Persian-language media is included. A second focus of the series is
media coverage of Millett's activities and projects, especially for the 1970s.
Other clippings are related to Millett's wide-ranging personal and professional
interests, particularly prison reform and the status of women's rights around
the world. A small amount of correspondence and other material is intermixed
with the clippings. There are also a number of full issues of activist
publications and newsletters.
In most cases, files in this series are arranged in original
order, and have been left undated unless Millett's original folder title
included a date range. There are few clippings from the 1980s. The series is in
alphabetical order.
Iran clippings are placed last, and are
unorganized. Substantial numbers of clippings can be also found in the Subject
Files and the Writings and Speeches Series.

Audiovisual Materials Series,
1971-2000 and
undated
(22 boxes)
The bulk of the series consists of
audio recordings, chiefly on audiocassette,
of Millett's public appearances, lectures, and interviews, and audio recordings
of private conversations and social events involving Millett. The years 1979
and 1980 are particularly well represented. Millett made recordings almost
daily during and after her 1979 visit to
Iran and during the late summer of 1980. There
are also audio recordings of Millett's mother and other family members, oral
interviews for Millett's research on
torture, and dictated drafts of
A.D. and
The Loony-Bin Trip. Early video
recordings include lectures by Millett and Millett's readings of
Anas Nin.
The series is divided into subseries by format: audiocassettes,
mixed materials, phonograph records, audiotapes (reels), and video recordings.
The Mixed Material Subseries consists of several different formats, chiefly
audio cassette, accompanied by substantial amounts of written material.
Audiocassette tapes are grouped by subject and organized chronologically within
each subject where feasible. Other materials generally have been left in
original order. Millett's titles have been retained throughout the series.

Video Recordings,
1976, circa 1977, 1996 and
undated
Consists of VHS videocassettes and open reel videotapes. VHS
tapes contain interviews and lectures given by Millett. There are two series of
recordings on open reel videotape, both dating from the mid to late 1970s. The
first series shows a 1976 reading at the Woman's Salon, a feminist literary
salon in New York City. Millett and other writers speak about Anas Nin and read
Nin's works. The second group of open reel recordings were made by
Alida Walsh and
Janey Washburn as a gift for Millett. They
show the opening reception of a Millett art show, most likely at the Chuck
Levitan Gallery in New York City. The recordings are unedited, with random
crowd scenes mixed with informal interviews with guests.
Cynthia MacAdams is mentioned as the model
for the artwork, and makes frequent appearances in the recordings.
Detailed notes about the open reel videos are available in the
information folder in reading room; please consult with Research Services
staff.

Photographic Materials Series,
1912-1998 and
undated
(4 boxes)
Consists primarily of photographs taken by others and sent to
Millett. Formats include
prints,
slides, and
negatives. There are portraits of Millett
from a variety of sources. The professional photographers among Millett's
acquaintance, including
Cynthia MacAdams and
Jill Krementz, took a number of photographs of
Millett. Photographs most likely taken by Millett include a large number of
slides dating from 1980, documenting the same time period as many of the
audiotapes in the Audiovisual Materials Series. There are a limited number of
snapshots from Millett's childhood and early adulthood.
Some photographs have been removed from correspondence located in
other series. In these cases, the original series is identified and as much
information as is available is given about the matching correspondence. The
series is in chronological order. Oversize photographs can be found in Oversize
Materials.
