content: Biographical materials include resumes, lists of works of art, and a calendar. The bulk of the correspondence is personal in nature and includes letters and greeting cards written between Zipora Schreiber, her aunt, husband, children, and nieces or nephews. Other letters are from smaller institutions in Massachusetts and New York concerning the exhibition of Schreiber's works. A notebook kept by Schreiber during a math class at Hunter College includes notes and sketches of geometric principles. Personal business records include price lists and sales records. Photographs depict Schreiber, with her art, at archaeological digs, her friends and family, and works of art. Printed materials consist of clippings, exhibition announcements and catalogs, and theater posters. A mixed-media scrapbook contains news clippings, programs, military discharge papers and service acknowledgements, and photographs of Louis Schreiber. It was likely compiled by Zipora Schreiber upon the death of her husband.
