BOX 69, 114-168, 296R Correspondence, 1956-2019
This series contains letters, faxes, and printed emails exchanged between Norman’s business managers and assistants and individuals or organizations with whom she had working relationships throughout her career. These include Philips Records, Harold Shaw Concerts, Schleswig-Holstein Music Festival, Carnegie Hall, the John F. Kennedy Center for the Performing Arts, and the Boston Symphony Orchestra. Much of the correspondence details inquiries and negotiations for Norman’s performances. There are also letters from collaborators, such as composer and professor Bruce Saylor, director Robert "Bob" Wilson, and University of Michigan music faculty member Willis Patterson.
Correspondence with the Margie Gillis Dance Foundation is restricted until 2044, at which time it will be reviewed by the Library of Congress Office of General Council.
Arranged alphabetically by correspondent and chronologically therein.
