content: This series is comprised of Polly Thayer's drafts of papers, articles, letters to the editor, and speeches.  Although the bulk of material consists of typescript drafts, folders often contain multiple drafts of writing, some of which are handwritten.  Polly Thayer wrote on a range of topics such as art, religion, and politics, as well as several memorial tributes to friends.  There is a draft of Looking At Animals, an anthology of poems by various writers for which Thayer selected the contents and wrote the introduction.  Also included are writings by friends and relatives which are about Thayer or reference her.
