{"value"=>"<p>This series details Charlip's teaching activities, residencies, and fellowships from the 1970s through the 2000s, with emphasis on the 1980s and 1990s. Charlip's grant applications and research, largely for dance-related work, are also found here. The series is arranged alphabetically by subject into Teaching, Residencies, and Workshops; and Grants and Fellowships. A set of Charlip's resumes, biographies, bibliographies, and lists of dance and theater works are filed at the end. Charlip used many of these for applications, and they are useful in establishing a chronology of his career and how he conceived of his work.</p> <p>The Teaching, Residencies, and Workshops files contain notes, outlines, correspondence, administrative materials, and course and workshop descriptions. There are files on several institutions Charlip taught at, specifically Hofstra University, Naropa Institute, Sarah Lawrence College, University of California, Santa Barbara, and Wesleyan University. Of special interest are Charlip's contracts and extensive notes for the San Francisco Arts Education Foundation. Also of note are his booklets and manuals on the Jin Shin Jyutsu technique, and Alexander Technique diagrams; Charlip's additional writings on the Alexander Technique are located in series III.</p> <p>Prominent among the Grant and Fellowship files are Charlip's applications for the National Endowment for the Arts, dating from 1988 to 1996, and materials for his John Simon Guggenheim Memorial Foundation fellowship in 2005. There are many materials related to Charlip's Asian Cultural Council fellowship in Japan, including correspondence, notes, lists of items to ship, schedules, and programs for events that Charlip conducted. Materials for Charlip's Japan-United States Friendship Commission fellowship are prominent as well, and include his grant application and calligraphy he drew during the fellowship.</p>"}
