content: This series consists of personal materials from Benjamin H. Stansbury (1934-1996) and his wife Helen Beheney Stansbury (1936-2014). Materials include biographical sketches, resumes, business cards,  photographs, drawings and sketches, and secretarial handbooks.  The drawings and sketches, many of which are on presentation boards, were created by Stansbury while a student at the Georgia Institute of Technology, School of Architecture. 

Of note are secretarial handbooks and manuals used by Helen Beheney while working at Walter Dorwin Teague  Associates as a secretary in the early 1960s.  The materials include P.S. for Private Secretaries, published by Prentice-Hall. The publication was directed at secretaries and provided tips on how to make their work more pleasant and efficient. Some of the issues contain advice to secretaries on getting along with others, letter writing, and fashion. Other secretarial handbooks relate to typing.
