Scope and arrangement
The Peter Mark Schifter papers hold production files, correspondence, photographs, and other material documenting his career as a director, designer, and writer.
Production files vary in content and may contain annotated scripts and librettos, set and costume designs, photographs, production schedules, clippings, promotional material, and other items documenting Schifter's work in theater, film, and opera.
The bulk of the correspondence consists of holiday cards and get well letters from his final illness in 1993. There is a limited amount of business correspondence with theatre companies and writers discussing potential productions.
Photographs are Schifter's professional headshots, personal snapshots, and a limited amount of unidentified production photographs. Other materials include award certificates, Schiffer's art, appointment and address books, and work contracts degrees, and material related to his 1993 memorial service.
