{"value"=>"<p>Sidney Cowell made several attempts at writing a biography of husband, producing various drafts of a manuscript, participating in an oral history project at the Institute for Studies in American Music in the mid-1970s, and assembling notes and anecdotes on Cowell that were never assembled into a final form. This sub-series divides the Sidney Cowell biographical material into four parts: manuscripts, oral history transcripts, material prepared for biography and further biographical notes. See also the manuscript of Sidney Cowell's autobiographical memoir <span class=\"title\">Chapbook Of Cheer</span> in Series XVI, some portions of which deal with Henry Cowell and may duplicate portions of manuscripts in this sub-series. Sidney Cowell edited the transcripts of her own oral history by subject; unedited transcripts of the tapes are also in this sub-series. Other oral history subjects include John Cage, Evelyn Becker, Olive Cowell, Lou Harrison, Charles Seeger, Nicolas Slonimsky and Frank Wigglesworth.</p>"}
