In addition to the correspondence from Arnold and Giannini, there are single and small groups of letters from Noam Chomsky, J. M. Coetzee, Clayton Eshleman, John Kenneth Galbraith, William Herrick, William Heyen, Stephen Spender, and Elie Wiesel, many of which were written to Hauptman in his capacity as a journal editor.
