{"value"=>"<p>This series is made up of files that contain items to, from, or concerning various individuals. The bulk of the items in this series are personal in nature. Files contain Gruson's communications with New York Times staff members; with notable politicians, journalist, business figures, and individuals in the New York City performing arts and culture scene; and with former colleagues and friends from Gruson's days as a foreign correspondent. Also present are letters from educational and philanthropic institutions seeking financial or networking support. Of note is the Sydney Schanberg file, which includes letters from readers who were dismayed by the decision to discontinue Schanberg's column on New York City issues. Copies of Gruson's responses to these readers are included.</p> <p>Files are arranged alphabetically by name. Entries without box and folder numbers cross-reference related material in other files. These files do not necessarily collect every letter, memorandum, or document related to the individual; subject files should also be consulted.</p>"}
