{"value"=>"<p>Files for \"All the Dark and Beautiful Warriors\" include writings (poems, short stories and essays) by Hansberry, which Robert Nemiroff compiled and attempted to publish after her death. Much of the material is edited and annotated by both Hansberry and Nemiroff. A sizable part of the files are for \"The Children: Part One\", for which there are many drafts, including a bound one. There is also a substantial volume of poems, fragments and notes. Excerpts from the manuscript appeared in The Village Voice (1983) and a special \"Chicago\" issue of Tri-Quarterly Magazine (1984).</p> <p>Nemiroff undertook other projects to promote Hansberry's legacy, some of which included publication of her writings, as well as helping to create special products such as films and recordings. These efforts are detailed in the correspondence with the William Morris Agency, and resulted in the publication of a number of Hansberry's plays and other writings including A Raisin in the Sun, the Sign in Sidney Brustein's Window, and Les Blancs: the Collected Last Plays of Lorraine Hansberry, in addition to Nemiroff's works based on Hansberry's work, (e. g., To Be Young, Gifted and Black and Raisin.).</p>"}
