https://dimes.rockarch.org/FA624/overview

The papers of David Bell, Vice President of the Ford Foundation's International Division from 1966 to 1981, document his activities at the Ford Foundation and those of the International Division during this period. They were sent to the Foundation's Archives in July 1981 by Alice Maloney, who served as Secretary and Executive Assistant to Mr. Bell for the duration of his tenure. The papers consist primarily of correspondence, memoranda, and Bell's rough notes summarizing meetings and conferences attended. They are divided into six series. The series' order is based on substance and size. Arrangement of files within a series corresponds closely to the original order established by Ms. Maloney. The papers are particularly rich in the following areas: • the activities of the International Division: the Office of the Vice President and the overseas field offices (Series I) • the annual meetings of the Board of Trustees and its subcommittees (Series II) • the activities of the international agricultural center system, including the Consultative Group on International Agricultural Research (Series IV) • the Foundation's Population Program (Series V)
