content: Subseries includes one folder related to the general history of Yeh's prison programs, including an introduction to her work and a description, "Art in Prisons," both written by Yeh. The folder also includes a description of the Lily Project at SCI Muncy, a letter and enclosed proposal written by Mary DeWitt for an art project with incarcerated women, and records of other resources, such as the Books Through Bars program, kept by Yeh. Also found is a folder of material related to programs and a book by Phyllis Kornfeld who writes about and works with prisoners and organizes exhibitions of their artwork. One folder of printed material is not specifically about Yeh's programs but documents related subjects.

The rest of the subseries consists of Yeh's correspondence with inmates from prisons other than Bellefonte and Graterford.
