This collection consists of the research materials of Drs. Judith McArthur and Harold Smith. Included are copies of materials held at other institutions as well as the authors’ notes. The collection is divided into six series: Minnie Fisher Cunningham, People, Conventions/Conferences, Organizations/Committees, Issues, and Photographic Material. All materials relate to Minnie and her various efforts across differing fields of interest. The bulk of the papers consist of correspondence between Minnie and individuals and organizations. The series is organized thematically and alphabetically.

Note: A significant portion of the materials included in the collection are photocopies or reprints acquired from institutions other than the University of Houston and as such the holding institution must be cited where applicable.
