content: This series consists of other academic work by Klima, including correspondence relating to professional activities and general anthropological research and teaching materials (mostly from Klima's career at SUNY Albany). Of note are a series of live lectures by noted anthropologists and artists, including Margaret Mead, Edmund Carpenter, and Marvin Harris, among others; these recordings often include audience questions and informal discussion with the lecturer.

This series also includes materials apparently for Klima's personal use, including experimental films, home movies, and documentation of painting purchases. The exact relation of any of these materials to his anthropological career is unestablished.

This series is arranged in the following 3 subseries: 3.1 Correspondence, 1955-1987, undated; 3.2 Other academic materials, 1958, 1962, 1974-1979, undated; 3.3 Personal materials, 1952-1993, undated.
