The papers of Hazel Lockwood Muller, covering the period 1910-1954, pertain primarily to the program series “Around the World with Dance and Song”, presented at New York City's Museum of Natural History, which Muller produced from 1943-1952. The business files consist of correspondence and publicity for the Museum series and some scripts for Muller's radio program based on the series.

Lockwood, and a collection of chronologically-arranged series announcements and programs for Around the World with Dance and Song. less
