Scope and arrangement
The Hazel Lockwood Muller papers, Additions hold correspondence, programs, notes, and performer files which document her presentation of Around the World with Dance and Song and the illustrative music program at the Museum. There are also scripts from her radio show, Dance Horizons.
Around the World With Dance and Song files include programs, performer research files, and notecards with Muller's introductory remarks. The performer research files hold promotional material, clippings, notes, and correspondence on various individual performers or troupes under consideration for the program. Some performers have their own files (notable artists include La Meri and Reginald and Gladys Laubin), but others are grouped by region or dance type such as Russian or folk dance. Muller's introductory remarks are alphabetical by artist and cover the background of each performer as well as announcements about future performances.
The illustrative music files hold program lists with albums and songs used for each exhibit hall, a list of albums available for Muller's use, and annual reports to the Museum on the success of the program. The Dance Horizons files hold radio scripts, some with "revised as broadcast" annotations.
