A small quantity of notes and letters pertain to the spread of the disease in Zaire. Correspondents include Elizabeth Kubler-Ross, Benjamin Bradlee, and Robert Gallo. Notes and manuscripts pertain to books, articles, and interviews by Fettner. Transcripts are from interviews with members of the medical community documenting their early clinical experience with AIDS and related diseases like Kaposi's sarcoma, Burkitt's lymphoma, and Pneumocystis pneumonia, and their personal experiences with AIDS patients.

Anne O'Hare McCormick (1882-1954), journalist and newspaper editor, spent most of her career at the New York Times. She began as a foreign correspondent in 1922 reporting from the U.S. and Europe. She became well known for her interviews with world leaders and in 1936 became the first woman to be appointed to the Times editorial board. McCormick received the Pulitzer Prize for Journalism in 1937 and served as a member of the U.S. delegation to the first and third UNESCO conferences. Collection consists of general correspondence, manuscripts of McCormick's writings and printed matter. Approximately half of her papers consists of correspondence received at the New York Times, 1936-1954. Carbons of her replies are on the backs of letters or are interfiled. Also included are typescripts of lectures, 1940-1952; clippings of articles by or about McCormick, ca. 1931-1954; UNESCO documents, 1946 and 1948; interview notes; photographs; and printed materials. Fifteen scrapbooks containing clippings of McCormick's columns, ca. 1936-1954, have been microfilmed (original scrapbooks are held by the Women's Press Club of New York City).
