{"value"=>"<p>Series I and Series II contain both incoming and outgoing correspondence. Both executive secretary Ben Irwin and Alice Evans (of the play department) correspond with theater groups, school officials, colleges, labor unions, and playwrights. Some of the letters relate to routine matters such as the sale of scripts owned by the New Theatre League and permission to perform and publish its plays. Other letters address the development of a progressive or labor theater in America. Correspondents include Barbara Corcoran, Archibald MacLeish, Clifford Odets, and Upton Sinclair.</p>"}
