Hanks, Nancy, 1927-1983. Papers, 1894-1987 (bulk 1945-1983).

Title: Papers, 1894-1987 (bulk 1945-1983).

Correspondence; minutes; reports; typed, mimeographed, and printed material; financial papers; clippings; mail logs; telephone records; calendars; office files; interviews; questionnaires; and diaries. In addition there are scrapbooks, pictures, photograph albums, slides, cassette tapes, and video-cassettes. One series contains awards, honorary degrees, and memorabilia. The Nancy Hanks collection is useful as a study of the development of private and governmental arts programs, in particular through the National Endowment for the Arts (NEA), and the personal life and career (1950s-1970s) of an upper-class single woman. Arts and the federal government is a recurrent theme. The collection also contains information about a variety of arts organizations in which Hanks was involved, often as a board member. Although the papers document both her personal and professional life and present a balanced account, there are relatively few professional papers in the collection concerning her early career, 1951-1957. However, there is some information in the letters to Hank's parents in the Personal Series which reflects this early work. The private life of Nancy Hanks is chiefly documented in the Personal, Duke University, Bryan and Virginia Hanks, Larry Hanks, and Pictures series. Her work at NEA is reflected in the National Endowment for the Arts Series as well as the American Film Institute (AFI), Commission on Critical Choices for Americans, and National Council on the Arts series, which depict related responsibilities of Hanks. The alphabetical files in the Personal Series include Awards in the Visual Arts, Commission on Museums for a New Century, Continental Oil Company (Conoco), the Conservation Foundation, the Equitable Life Assurance Society of the U.S., the Independent Sector, the Indo-U.S. Subcommission on Education and Culture, Partners for Livable Places, the Phillips Collection, Presidential Task Force on the Arts and Humanities, Salzburg Seminar in American Studies, and the Smithsonian Institution Board of Regents. The Rockefeller Brothers Fund Series reflects Hank's retirement years. Philip Hanes material appears in the Personal Series and the NEA Series.
