{"value"=>"<p>This series holds memorabilia of Gore's life and career, including photographs, writings, letters, programs, school files, clippings, music notebooks, scrapbooks, and awards.</p> <p>The photographs consist of portraits and publicity images; informal shots, including Gore in the recording studio, in performance, at public events, and at home; family photographs; and photos of others, including Gore's partner, Lois Sasson. Gore and Sasson knew politician and activist Bella Abzug, and attended two Abzug-related events documented here with photographs.</p> <p>Gore's writings include notes for and multiple drafts of her unfinished memoir, as well as correspondence with an editor. The memoir is of particular interest as it reveals events and aspects of Gore's life and career that have never previously been disclosed. The writings also hold biographical and personal notes (similar to journal entries) dating back to the 1970s, and scripts for multiple episodes of an untitled television series.</p> <p>Documentation of Gore's career includes a scrapbook of clippings and programs, and a file of programs and handbills. Additional programs can be found in the Show Lists file in Series II. The scrapbook covers only the years 1963 to 1967. The clippings file covers the entirety of Gore's career.</p> <p>The Music Studies file contains Gore's notebooks for her piano and composition studies in the late-1960s and early 1970s. The Dwight School and Sarah Lawrence College files hold Gore's diplomas, a yearbook excerpt, and a scrapbook. The awards include a plaque for the 1963 Grammy nomination of \"It's My Party\" for best rock and roll recording.</p>"}
