Several of the artist files are further broken down into areas such as Biographical Material, Letters, Writings, Notes, Printed Material, Audio material, and Photographs. Examples of Biographical material include curricula vita and resumes, fellowship applications, copies of birth certificates, written statements by artists concerning their work, and brief reference information written by Blanc about the artists and their artwork.
