content: Professional files form the bulk of the collection and encompass Browne's career as a painter, educator, critic and writer. 

A file for American Abstract Artists comments on Browne's affiliation as a founding member of the organization and includes correspondence, printed material, and drafts of questionnaires, some of which are photocopies. Works Progress Administration material contains scattered information on Browne's work on murals at the Central Nurses Home. 

Also found are files for schools at which Browne taught, most notably for the New School for Social Research; exhibition files; and files for publications such as the Encyclopedia Judaica, The New York Star, and Pictures on Exhibit. Of note is a file for Francis V. O'Connor's compiled work on the New Deal Art Projects in which Browne is included.
