[top]Collection Overview
The Nell Irvin Painter Papers span the
years 1793-2006, with the bulk of the material dating between 1876 and 2004,
and are primarily composed of the extensive correspondence, writing, research,
teaching materials, and other professional papers that Painter has produced in
a forty-year career as a student, scholar, teacher, and writer in 19th- and
20th-century American and African American history. These materials document
the breadth and depth of Painter's interests and her intellectual and personal
influence on a generation of historians. Her varied roles as student, teacher,
colleague, and mentor are recorded in a wide variety of formats: correspondence
with colleagues, students, family, and friends; syllabi, department memoranda,
and meeting minutes from her graduate and faculty positions at Harvard,
Princeton, and the Universities of North Carolina and Pennsylvania; materials
from many professional organizations in the fields of African American history,
Southern history, American studies, and women's studies; and records of her
speaking engagements, conferences, and meetings. Painter the historian and
author are revealed in the extensive notes, photocopies, recordings,
photographs, manuscripts, and proofs produced in writing many articles and five
of her major books:
Exodusters: Black Migration to Kansas after
Reconstruction;
The Narrative of Hosea Hudson: His Life as a Negro
Communist in the South;
Standing at Armageddon: The United States,
1877-1919;
Sojourner Truth, A Life, A Symbol; and
Creating Black Americans: African-American History
and its Meanings, 1619 to the Present. The portrait is rounded out by
the materials in several smaller series: personal files, which include
materials from her student years at Harvard and abroad in Ghana and France as
well as personal journals; a few papers of Ghanaian writer Ayi Kwei Armah; photographs, including many historical photographs
of African Americans as well as many personal snapshots in color and
black-and-white; and other non-print media such as audiotapes, audiocassettes,
videocassettes, and computer diskettes.
In effect the collection creates a record of both historical and
contemporary value at once. Because of Painter's intellectual interests and
research, her papers contain a wealth of information about many topics in
American history: biography of African Americans; biography as a literary form;
slavery; Reconstruction; the 1870s migration from the South to Kansas; a
variety of social reform movements--such as abolition, communism, labor, and
women's suffrage--and movers, such as Sojourner Truth and Hosea Hudson; and the
history of social conditions and political change in the United States from the
early-19th to the mid-20th century, particularly as expressed in race
relations, in women's history, and in the South. At the same time, because of
her own life and career, Painter's papers not only document the content and
process of her historiographic inquiry, they also constitute their own,
contemporary record of many trends in American culture, especially as regards
career and educational choices and opportunities for women and African
Americans. Her correspondence with students, colleagues, and longtime friends
such as Nellie Y. McKay, her teaching material and academic files, her papers
from an array of historians' organizations, and her personal journals each shed
their own light on these themes. In sum these documents both outline and detail
some of the emerging roles of women and African Americans in American society.
The collection attests to the value and stimulation of the intellectual life
while recording almost every step taken in pursuit of it, from the minutiae of
academic research and job-hunting, to the attainment of personal success, to
the challenges and rewards that inhere in a lifetime's worth of effort to get
new fields accepted and established in the academic community.
The collection is arranged in nine series: Correspondence, Writings and Research, Teaching Materials,
Professional Service, Personal Files, Photographic Materials, Audiovisual
Materials, Electronic Formats, and the Ayi Kwei Armah Papers.The first
four series comprise almost ninety percent of the physical extent of the
collection and are each divided into several subseries. The
Correspondence
Series, arranged in four subseries-- Chronological, Alphabetical,
Student/Candidate Files, and Nellie Y. McKay--is the largest in the collection. It
follows Painter's personal life, education, and professional career from her
graduate years at Harvard in the late 1960s through her retirement from
Princeton in 2004. The subseries reflect the various filing arrangements that
Painter used over this long span, so there is much overlap between the largest
subseries here, the Chronological Subseries, and the other three subseries
arranged by the names of individual, organizations, and topics. All of the
subseries are rich with detail of the personal and professional lives and
intellectual interests of Painter, her colleagues, and a generation of her
students, many of whom have gone on to careers as professional historians
themselves. But the Nellie Y. McKay Subseries (CLOSED) is of
particular interest because it illustrates the same issues at such depth and
length, providing a longitudinal record of the parallel paths of two
friends--both women, both African American, and both scholars--balancing their
personal lives with their lifelong effort to establish themselves and their
chosen fields of study, African American history and African American
literature, in the academic community.
The
Writings and Research
Series is arranged in seven subseries. The first five of these are
based on five of Painter's major books, as described below; the final two
subseries are Other Research Topics, which gathers
many of Painter's shorter writings, and Writings by
Others. With the exception of the last, all the subseries here contain
correspondence with colleagues and editors; typescript drafts of works; various
stages of proof; photocopies of archival materials and published articles;
extensive notes about her readings and research; and some photographs and
recordings, most of which have been removed to their respective series for
preservation. The subseries based on Painter's major books are arranged by
title, with the first being also her most recent,
Creating Black Americans:
African-American History and its Meanings, 1619 to the Present.
The smallest subseries in Writings and Research, it consists mainly of
typescript drafts of several chapters of a work that uses many examples of
20th-century African American art to enrich and illustrate a broad survey of
African American history. The next subseries is based on Painter's first book,
Exodusters: Black Migration to
Kansas after Reconstruction, which recounts and interprets the
emigration of thousands of African Americans from the South to the Midwest in
the late 1870s. Because the book was a revision and expansion of her
dissertation, the subseries contains research, notes, and writing from her
graduate years in addition to the material derived directly from her work on
the book. The
Exodusters files consist heavily of
photocopies of archival materials and newspaper and periodical articles. The
next subseries is based on Painter's second book,
The Narrative of Hosea Hudson:
His Life as a Negro Communist in the South; it departs sharply
from her first in subject matter and treatment, and its differences are
reflected in the material gathered here. This book marked her first major
publication in biography, a form that became a career-long interest as literary
genre and historiographical tool. It is based on the life of Hosea Hudson, an
African American labor organizer and Communist Party member in
Birmingham, Alabama, from the early 1930s until
losing his job and being blacklisted as a communist in 1947. The subseries
documents how Painter came into contact with Hudson (by way of her close
friend, Nellie McKay), and how their collaboration evolved into a work that
synthesizes Hudson's responses to Painter's questions into a narrative of his
long and varied life. The unusual genesis of the book is reflected in the
make-up of the subseries, which differs from others here in being, rather than
predominantly research material and notes, an even distribution among the
categories of correspondence, drafts, and research. The
Sojourner Truth, A Life, A Symbol
Subseries documents Painter's work on the life, work, and cultural image
of the famous ex-slave who became an abolitionist, preacher, and early women's
suffragist. While religion plays a strong role in her analysis of Truth,
Painter also focuses on the effects of
physical and sexual abuse of women of that period,
including how it influenced the
child-rearing practices of slaves and former slaves.
The final subseries based on Painter's major books is the
Standing at Armageddon: The United States,
1877-1919 Subseries. This 1987 work analyzes the political,
economic, and social history of the United States from the end of
Reconstruction to the end of
World War I, including discussion of Progressivism,
socialism,
labor radicalism and the reactions to it,
women's suffrage,
immigration, and race. In addition to correspondence,
manuscripts, and research related directly to
Standing at Armageddon, this subseries
also gathers much other research and writing on the same issues addressed in
the book, including work on how labor, gender, and race relate to American
economic and political conditions of the late-19th and early-20th centuries. As
mentioned, the Other Research Topics Subseries
gathers research, correspondence, and drafts of many of Painter's shorter
writings such as addresses, articles, and essays; these cover many of the same
issues addressed in the books, and in some cases represent early versions of
specific chapters. Finally, the Writings by Others
Subseries consists of drafts, published works, and lectures by family
members, colleagues, and other individuals. Although other such works appear in
other subseries, too, these differ in that they could not be specifically
related to Painter's work on a particular book or article, and most of them had
been foldered by her under the name of individual authors rather than grouped
by topic or by the title of one of her own works-in-progress. The subseries
contains some reproductions of 19th- and early-20th-century writings but
predominantly consists of the work of contemporary historians.
The
Teaching Materials
Series documents Painter's work with students and academic
colleagues at several universities: Harvard, the University of Pennsylvania,
the University of North Carolina, Hunter College, and Princeton University. The
Courses Subseries contains syllabi, reading lists,
and Painter's notes on the development of her courses. Course titles and
content reflect not only the differences between teaching undergraduate survey
courses and directing graduate-level seminars, but also the evolution of
women's studies and African American studies in the curriculum. The
Academic Files Subseries shows Painter in many
different roles over three decades: graduate student, job applicant, junior and
tenured faculty member, dissertation advisor, mentor, and department head. This
portrait is supported by a varied collection of correspondence, departmental
and university memoranda, files on her job searches, and files on the
development of curricula and programs at several major universities.
The
Professional Service
Series, arranged in two subseries, documents Painter's activities
in the broader academic community beyond her university of employment and her
personal connections. The Organizations Subseries
collects materials from well over one hundred professional organizations,
conferences, foundations, committees and task forces, as well as editorial
boards of journals and publishers with which Painter has worked during her
career. The subseries is particularly rich with information about the work of
organizations and some publishers in the fields of American and African
American history, American studies, Southern history, and women's studies. The
Engagements Subseries shows Painter's involvement
with such organizations from a slightly different angle. Gathered here are
documents relating to addresses, speeches, and honors at some three hundred
conferences, meetings, and symposia. Although drafts of some of these
presentations appear here, most of the substantive drafts have been placed in
the Writings Series; this subseries is more a record of what topics she spoke
on, what occasioned the event, and with what organizations she has interacted
throughout her career.
Five smaller series and a gathering of oversize material round out the
collection. The
Personal Files Series
contains an assortment of biographical information, including copies of many
curricula vitae; clippings and other documents about her family; and some
records of her student years, especially her travel and study in France and
Africa. The richest material in the series, however, is the collection of some
three dozen personal journals covering most of the years from 1959-2005; they
contain several thousand pages of Painter's thought about her life and career,
from before her college years to her retirement as an internationally-renowned
scholar and writer (NOTE: some journals are CLOSED--see series note for further details). The
Photographic Materials
Series contains several hundred photographs, predominantly
personal snapshots but also including some professional portraits of Painter as
well as a number of original photographs and reproductions of archival
photographs she used in her research and writing. Much of the material in the
early years of the
Audiovisual Materials
Series is related to her research and writing; by the 1990s, the
content shifts focus to documenting Painter herself on the occasion of various
interviews and addresses. The
Electronic Formats
Series consists of diskettes with a variety of files containing
correspondence and drafts of writings. It is likely that much of this material
is already represented elsewhere in the collection in printed form. Painter's documents conclude with the
Oversize Materials,
where a small number of items from several series and subseries are gathered. Much of this material
is of peripheral interest to the main body of the collection, although the
oversize Writings Series contains a number of unique research items. The final series in the collection consists not of Painter's own work but that of a Ghanaian novelist and poet; see the Ayi Kwei Armah Papers (RESTRICTED) series note for further information on the provenance and usage of these materials.
Note about date range of materials: The
primary material produced by Painter begins around 1959 with her earliest
journals. Earlier dates in various series, occurring mainly in Writings and
Research, reflect the intellectual content and original publication of the
large volume of reproduced research material present in the collection.

Detailed Description of Collection
Correspondence Series, 1862-2005 and undated, bulk 1970-2003
(89 boxes)
Contains professional correspondence between Painter and her
professors, colleagues, and students over the course of her career; personal
letters to and from family, friends, and colleagues; and some administrative
and interdepartmental memoranda from each of the universities at which Painter
served as professor. Documents Painter's personal life, education, and career
from her graduate years at Harvard in the late 1960s up through her retirement
from Princeton in 2004. Major figures who corresponded with Painter include
African-American novelist
Toni Morrison; professors of English
Houston A. Baker, Jr.,
Werner Sollors, and
Nellie Y. McKay; and historians
Darlene Clark Hine and
William L. Andrews. Theirs and others'
correspondence may appear in either the Chronological Subseries or Alphabetical
Subseries. Professional correspondence also includes some letters related to
editorial matters, organizations such as the National Endowment for the
Humanities, and such publishers as
Heinneman of the African Writer's Series.
Arranged in four subseries: the Chronological,
Alphabetical, Student/Candidate
Files, and Nellie Y. McKay (CLOSED).
In addition to the material gathered in this series,
correspondence can be found in many other places in the collection. This is
particularly true of the
Writings and Research Series and the
Professional Service Series. In the case of
the former, each of the five subseries for Painter's major books contains a
Correspondence subgroup within it related to research and publication of the
book, and correspondence also appears in various folders throughout the other
two subseries. In the Professional Service Series, correspondence appears in
both subseries, though in more substantial amounts in the Organizations
Subseries.
Processing Note: Letters often include
attachments, such as photographs, articles, newspaper clippings, and booklets
related to Painter's research or academia in general, and abstracts and drafts
of dissertation chapters from students. Unattached photographs have been
removed to the
Photographic Materials Series. Unattached
book manuscripts and articles from colleagues have been removed to the Writings
and Research Series, Writings by Others Subseries. Unattached departmental
memoranda, course syllabi, and writings by students have been removed to the
Teaching Materials Series.
Processing Note: Materials in this
series containing mold have been remediated, replaced in the collection, and so
identified on the folder and in the box list. See Processing Information
section of this finding aid for more complete information.
Chronological Subseries, 1969-2005 and undated, bulk 1970-2003
(51 boxes)
Correspondence between Painter and professors, colleagues,
students, friends, and family over the course of her career.
Arranged in chronological order by year, month, and, in some
places, day. Where possible, Painter's own system of labeling has been
retained, which accounts for some overlap in dates across folders. Materials
from the mid to late 1990s and early 2000 often have been divided into the
categories
"professional,"
"business,"
and
"personal"
as Painter saw fit,
and the folders containing these materials have been so labeled along with the
year and, at times, month. Printed electronic correspondence was largely
separated by Painter from traditionally-formatted letters when it first began
to appear in the mid-1990s and has been retained in her folders; after a few
years, however, she began to treat e-mail as any other correspondence and by
2002 was interfiling items regardless of how they originated.

Student/Candidate Files Subseries, 1862-2001 and undated, bulk 1988-2000
(12 boxes)
Correspondence with current and former students, including some
undergraduates but mainly graduate students and masters and doctoral advisees.
Contains many attached writings, proposals, resumes, and requests for
references. Many of the same correspondents may also appear in the
Chronological Subseries. Arranged alphabetically.
Sensitive Material: Materials
covered by the privacy and confidentiality agreement signed by all researchers
appear at many points throughout the collection, but they are especially
concentrated in this subseries. During processing, all grades, social security
numbers, and various medical information were removed or redacted when they
were found, but this does not guarantee all such items were located. In
addition, material such as letters of recommendation, commentary on students'
writing or performance, and other potentially sensitive information appears and
was retained in many folders. Researchers should review the confidentiality
agreement or consult with Research Services staff if they have questions about
the appropriate use of this material.

Nellie Y. McKay Subseries (CLOSED), 1977-1996
(8 boxes)
Correspondence between Painter and
Nellie Y. McKay, who met in 1969 when both
were first-year graduate students at Harvard (Painter in history, McKay in
English). McKay went on to become a professor of American and African-American
Literature and published important works on Toni Morrison and Jean Toomer among
other writers. She spent most of her career at the University of
Wisconsin-Madison. Bulk of subseries consists of correspondence from McKay, but
several years into the sequence many copies of Painter's letters begin to
appear, too. Letters cover the personal and professional lives of both women,
enriched by a variety of attachments, including drafts of writings, newspaper
clippings about their careers and current events, promotional materials,
snapshots, and sometimes copies of correspondence with third parties. Arranged
chronologically, although researchers should note that Painter's original
labeling on the folders is not always complete. Often the correspondence inside
the folders covers a longer span of months than she indicated; this has been
amended in pencil, but items were not shifted between or within folders, so
contiguous folders should be examined for particular weeks or months.
Related material may appear elsewhere in this collection and in
the Rare Book, Manuscript, and Special Collections Library. Although the McKay
correspondence was clearly labeled and separated in Painter's papers, it stops
in 1996; however, there is no indication that the friendship ceased before
McKay's death in early 2006. Since the mid-1990s is also when a large volume of
e-mail begins to appear in Painter's files, it is likely that more
correspondence with McKay can be found in the Chronological Subseries of the
Correspondence Series. Additionally, the library is the repository for the
Nellie Y. McKay Papers, a small collection of
correspondence with Painter that is unprocessed as of this writing (January
2007); contact Research Services for the current status of this collection.
[CLOSED: Items in the Nellie Y. McKay Subseries are closed until forty years from the original date of creation of each item.]

Writings and Research Series, 1793, 1835-2006 and undated, bulk 1876-2004
(64 boxes)
Writings, research materials, notes, and correspondence that
document the genesis of Painter's major books and many articles, essays, and
reviews. Contains significant amounts of
correspondence with publishers, sources, and
colleagues; articles and talks sent by colleagues; and copious notes and
numerous
photocopies of primary sources, including
newspapers and
government records. There are also many
drafts of Painter's talks and writings, including
manuscripts,
typescripts, and
printer's proofs.
Arranged in seven subseries, the first five of which are based on
five of Painter's major books:
Exodusters: Black
Migration to Kansas After Reconstruction (1976);
The Narrative of Hosea
Hudson: His Life as a Negro Communist in the South (1979);
Sojourner Truth, A Life, A
Symbol (1996);
Standing at Armageddon:
The United States, 1877-1919 (1987); and
Creating Black Americans:
African American History and Its Meanings, 1619 to the Present
(2005). Each subseries is further divided into three subgroups, Correspondence,
Drafts, and Research Materials; see specific subseries notes for further detail
about the arrangement and content of these categories for each book. Materials
unrelated to these five books--or whose relationship to them could not be
established--have been placed in one of the final two subseries,
Other Research Topics or Writings by Others. Note that while all the subseries
contain writings by other authors, the main criterion for placing materials in
Writings by Others is that the folder contains only such writing. If a folder
contains Painter's notes and commentary in addition to writings by other
authors or contains works by multiple authors that Painter gathered under a
topical heading, then they are placed in one of the first five subseries or in
Other Research Topics. This subseries, the largest in the Writings and Research
Series, is further divided into subgroups by topic; see its subseries note for
further details on its arrangement.
Several types of documents that appear in this series are
supported by related material in other series. Three are of particular note:
correspondence, addresses, and writing by other authors. Much correspondence
appears in various subseries in Writings and Research, and it addresses many of
the same topics broached in the Correspondence Series; it can be searched
alphabetically or chronologically according to the arrangement of the
particular subseries. Drafts of Painter's addresses and articles have generally
been placed in the Writings and Research Series--especially in the Other
Research Topics Subseries--if the folders consist mainly of substantive drafts
of the work or research on it; but other versions may also appear in the
Engagements Subseries of the Professional Service Series. Finally, a
substantial amount of writing by other authors, especially when those authors
were current or former students or advisees of Painter's, appears in two other
series. Most such material appears as attachments to letters in the
Student/Candidate Files Subseries of the Correspondence Series; a smaller
amount, in the form of drafts unattached to correspondence, appears at the end
of the Teaching Materials Series, Academic Files Subseries.
As mentioned in the Collection Overview, the dating of folder
titles is of particular note in this series due to the large volume of
photocopies and microform printouts of archival and historical material. If the
folder contains Painter's notes or quotations from a primary source, the date
corresponds to the time Painter worked on the subject. If the folder contains
an original source or photocopy of one (almost always the latter), the date
corresponds to when the intellectual content was originally produced or
published.
Processing Note: Materials in this
series containing mold have been remediated, replaced in the collection, and so
identified on the folder and in the box list. See Processing Information
section of this finding aid for more complete information.

(2 boxes)

Materials have been organized into three subgroups,
Correspondence, Drafts, and Research Materials. Correspondence also includes
book reviews. The Drafts subgroup consists of typescripts and printer's proofs.
Related writings and speeches by Painter are organized with the research
materials. The materials in the Correspondence and Research Materials subgroups
are arranged alphabetically, while those in the Drafts subgroup are arranged
chronologically. Because they lack precise date information, three typescripts
and three printer's proofs have been labeled A to C. This labeling does not
reflect any chronological ordering among those documents. In the Research
Materials subgroup, articles by Painter are indicated by (NIP); writings by
others are listed alphabetically by last name. The designations "(d)" and "(w)"
she occasionally places after the names of certain newspapers indicate whether
it was a daily or weekly publication, respectively.

Hosea Hudson Subseries, 1931-1996 and undated, bulk 1976-1982
(8 boxes)
Contains correspondence,
readers' reports, drafts,
interview transcripts, and research
materials for
The Narrative of Hosea Hudson: His Life as a
Negro Communist in the South (1979), as well as related talks and
articles by Painter.
Materials have been divided into three subgroups:
Correspondence, Drafts, and Research Materials. The Correspondence subgroup
largely consists of publication-related materials and correspondence between
Painter and Hudson, which began in 1976 and lasted through 1982. Many of
Hudson's letters contain newspaper articles that he routinely clipped, typed
notes onto, and attached to the letter. Other items of note in the subgroup
include readers' reports and Painter's replies to them and a letter of
consignment for the Hudson interview tapes, which Painter donated to the
Southern Oral History Program at the
University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill,
where they are housed in the Southern Historical Collection.
The Research Materials subgroup largely consists of materials
used in verifying and annotating the text. Hudson's FBI file is of particular
interest. Also contained are several interview transcripts and related articles
and talks by Painter, including her talk at UNC,
"How
I Wrote Hosea Hudson."
The materials contained in the Correspondence and Research
Materials subgroups have been organized alphabetically. The folder titles for
articles or talks by Painter begin with the work's title, followed by
"(NIP)"
. Folder titles for works by other
others are organized by author, last name first. The materials in the Drafts
subgroup are organized chronologically.

(9 boxes)
Contains correspondence, reviews, photos, comments from readers,
and research materials for
Sojourner Truth: A Life, A Symbol
(1996), as well as related talks and articles by Painter. Divided into three
subgroups: Correspondence, Drafts, and Research Materials. The Correspondence
subgroup includes materials regarding fellowships Painter received, reviews,
photos, answers to questions regarding Sojourner
Truth, publication information, and requests for others to review drafts
of her chapters. These items have been ordered alphabetically.
Painter sent a number of typescript chapter drafts to other
scholars. The Drafts subgroup largely consists of the drafts that these
scholars returned, with their comments and suggestions. The majority of the
drafts are of the first three chapters, but a few copies of chapters four and
five are also included. These items have been organized chronologically.
The Research Materials subgroup largely consists of notes,
articles, and photocopies of book chapters and letters. There are also a number
of talks and articles by Painter in relation to Sojourner
Truth. In particular, there are several folders with materials relating
to the chapter
"Difference, Slavery, and Memory:
Sojourner Truth in Feminist Abolitionism,"
which appeared in Jean Fagan
Yellin and John C. Van Horne's The Abolitionist
Sisterhood: Women's Political Culture in Antebellum America. At the time
the materials in the collection were prepared, the chapter was known only by
its subtitle and the book was called An Untrodden
Path. Also of interest is an article by Richard Powell, which is related
to a chapter in
Sojourner Truth on photography and
representations of Truth. Other materials relevant to this topic, particularly
cartes de visite, are found in the Writings by Others Subseries and the
Photography subgroup of the Other Research Topics Subseries. The Research
Materials subgroup has been ordered alphabetically.

Standing at Armageddon Subseries, 1851-1999 and undated, bulk 1882-1913 and 1971-1988
(11 boxes)
Consists of correspondence, drafts, related talks and writings,
and extensive research materials related to Painter's work on
Standing at Armageddon: The United States,
1877-1919 (1987). Divided into Correspondence, Drafts, and Research
Materials subgroups.
Compared to other subseries, the
Standing at Armageddon Subseries
contains relatively little correspondence. The existing materials are largely
publication-related. The correspondence with the Henry George School of Social
Science includes a lesson plan and quiz questions on Standing at Armageddon. Related correspondence perhaps
may be found in the Correspondence Series. The Drafts subgroup includes a
manuscript, several typescripts, and two master proofs. The Research subgroup
materials include photocopies of scholarly articles, newspaper articles, and
Congressional records, as well as extensive notes from those materials and
books. The subgroup also includes talks, reviews, and articles by Painter.
In addition to materials directly about the book, all materials
in the Writings and Research Series involving the issues of labor, gender, and
race, as they relate to the economic and political conditions of the late
nineteenth and early twentieth centuries, have been incorporated into the
Standing at Armageddon Subseries.
The subseries also includes materials on the South that are relevant to the
period addressed by
Standing at Armageddon.
The correspondence and research materials are arranged
alphabetically, while the drafts are arranged chronologically. Talks or
articles by Painter have generally been identified by
"(NIP)"
following the work's title. As three
typescripts of
Standing at Armageddon lack any date
information, they have been labeled A to C. This labeling does not reflect any
chronological ordering among those typescripts. In addition, inasmuch as their
dating is uncertain, those typescripts have been placed after the other
typescripts in the subseries.

Gender and
Sexuality
The second largest subgroup in the Other Research Topics
Subseries. Many of the materials focus on
women in the American South, but they also
examine abuse, including sexual abuse; the distinctions between one's identity
as black, as a woman, and as a black woman; minority women as historians and
scholars; and black women in relation to civil rights, voting, and affirmative
action.

surrounding
political correctness, race and money, and
language. Of particular interest are the materials about the
Somerset reunion, a reunion of all the

North Carolina, and three fictional works
of unknown origin.

Southern
History
Contains materials on the differences between African-American
and Southern history;
emancipation; the
Ku Klux Klan; identity, blood and race;
and Reconstruction. Because of the number of materials on Reconstruction, these
have been organized into a group within Southern History. Many of the materials
in this subgroup relate to a work on the South and identity that Painter
proposed and researched, which she entitled
"American Views of the South."
Although it was not written, some of the themes for this work are addressed in
Painter's introductory essay for
The Secret Eye, which was
reprinted in
Southern History Across the Color
Line, as well as in
Creating Black Americans and other
essays in
Southern History Across the Color
Line.

Walter White
Materials compiled by Painter while working in the late 1980s
with one of her students, Leah Hagedorn, on a reprint edition (never published)
of the novels of
Walter White, an early 20th century
African American author and chief executive of the
NAACP from 1929-1935. Subgroup contains
copies of correspondence to, from, and about White; copies of his newspapers
columns, fiction manuscripts, and other writings; and Painter's original
correspondence, drafts, and notes about White's life and work. Arranged
alphabetically based on Painter's original folder titles; descriptive words
such as "correspondence" and "photocopies" were added as needed to clarify
folder contents.

Writings by Others Subseries, 1859-2003 and undated, bulk 1972-1996
(6 boxes)
Consists of drafts, published works, and lectures by family
members, colleagues, and other individuals. Although Painter probably used
these materials for her own research, they have been placed in the Writings by
Others Subseries because they were unrelated to, or could not be particularly
identified with, any of her major books. Moreover, they have not been included
among the materials in the Other Research Topics Subseries, although they
frequently include notes or marginalia by Painter, because Painter organized
these materials in such a way that the work in each folder is primarily the
work of a single author other than herself. Correspondence, including notes
from those sending materials to Painter, can be found in some folders, and
related material from some authors may also be found in the Correspondence
Series.
Significant topics covered in the subseries include
feminism, photography, and the
history of photography. Other materials on
photography are found in the
Sojourner Truth Subseries and the
Photography subgroup of the Other Research Topics Subseries. Of interest is a
work by Painter's mother,
Dona Irvin, about the members of
Downs Memorial United Methodist Church. The
work focuses on the lives of middle-class African-Americans rather than
prominent figures or the underprivileged. Here entitled
The Downs People, it was published
as
The Unsung Heart of Black America: A
Middle-class Church at Midcentury.
The materials in the Writings by Others Subseries are arranged
alphabetically by last name.

Departmental correspondence and memoranda, meeting minutes,
university and department forms and invoices, printed materials, files on
students for whom Painter served as advisor or committee member, student
writings, and other materials. Arranged alphabetically by institution (Harvard,
Princeton, University of North Carolina, University of Pennsylvania, and
Wellesley College), then chronologically within those groups. At the end of the
series are several folder groups that span Painter's years in various
positions, arranged alphabetically by topic. The largest of these are
Applications and Job Searches, containing correspondence and other documents
relating to various positions and fellowships she sought at different times;
and Student Writings, containing various papers, theses, and dissertations
written by Painter's students. Note that student files gathered here are mainly
writings that were found unattached to correspondence and represent only a
fraction of such material; the bulk of her extensive correspondence with her
students, including discussion and copies of their research and writing, is in
the Correspondence Series.

Documents relating to Painter's addresses, speeches, and honors
at some three hundred conferences, meetings, and symposia over the course of
three decades. Although drafts of some of these presentations appear here, most
of the substantive drafts have been placed in the Writings and Research Series.
This subseries is more a record of what topics she spoke on, what occasioned
the event, and with what organizations she has interacted throughout her
career. Arranged chronologically.
Processing note: Text appearing in quotation marks in folder
titles generally indicates the titles of papers or addresses presented or
discussed at conferences and meetings, not the names of the events
themselves.
