Currier, in which she shares information about her father, and answers two questionnaires compiled by White. Other letters are primarily requests to, and responses from, galleries and individuals for reproductions of Currier's artwork, and correspondence with others interested in Currier.

General correspondence, D-F, includes copies of 2 letters from artist and wife of Thomas Wilmer Dewing, Maria Oakey Dewing.
