Scope and Content Note
The series consists of files Paul Carter Harrison kept on subjects of personal and professional interest, project development, and university duties from 1967-2012. General subject files include printed material, correspondence, and reports on various subjects and organizations, most of which concern African Americans and the arts. Project and grant proposal files pertain to the projects Harrison and others developed relating to production of his plays and other black theatre projects; these files contain correspondence, descriptions of projects, and grant applications and associated material. Teaching files contain syllabi and course notes, correspondence, printed material, administrative documents, recommendation letters, and student writings (excepting dissertations, which can be found in Series 2.2: Writings by Others). Much of the material relates to student productions Harrison directed or produced at numerous universities, documenting his dual role as educator and dramatist.
