{"value"=>"<p>The majority of the letters in the Correspondence series are from those individuals whose work is discussed in <span class=\"title\">The Concert Dance</span>. Frequently included with the letters is a carbon copy or original typescript of the portion of the manuscript about that individual, returned with annotations or corrections. Among those respondents who provided detailed comments on sections of the manuscript are Franziska Boas, Valerie Bettis, Angna Enters, Jean Erdman, Eve Gentry, Hadassah (through her husband, Milton Epstein), Pauline Koner, Juana de Laban, Alwin Nikolais, Pearl Primus, Jan Veen, and Mary Wigman. In addition to her commentary on the book, there is extensive correspondence from Eleanor King, who also was a long time friend of Wolfe's. At the end of the series is one folder containing photocopies of several of Wolfe's annual Christmas letters to her friends (she often typed her notes on the back of these and other mimeographed leaves from her office), which partially document her work on the book and other activities.</p> <p> <ul> <li>Sub-series 1 – <span class=\"title\">The Ballet</span> (Volume 1), 1912-1966 and undated</li> <li>Sub-series 2 – <span class=\"title\">Modern Dance: Beginnings in Germany</span> (Volume 2), 1926-1964 and undated</li> <li>Sub-series 3 – <span class=\"title\">Modern Dance in America</span> (Volume 3), 1926-1972 and undated</li> <li>Sub-series 4 – <span class=\"title\">Ethnic Dance and Dance Mime in America</span> (Volume 4), 1926-1969 and undated</li></ul></p>"}
