Letters to and from Dr. Rhoda Metraux, of American Museum of Natural History.

1978 letters (and one from 1983) inquiring about and giving permission for Rhoda Metraux (American Museum of Natural History ) to use Louis Pierre Ledoux's manuscript (lot # 108) including Margaret Mead's comments (lot # 127) for research at the American Museum of Natural History.

Includes reference that most of Louis Pierre Ledoux's collection ended up at the Berlin Museum [presumable the Ethnological Museum of Berlin] due to a reporter in Brisbane violating Louis Pierre Ledoux's confidence and publishing his remarks, thus rendering Louis Pierre Ledoux unpublishable. Rhoda Metraux was Research Associate at the American Museum of Natural History in 1978. She was a prominent cross-cultural anthropologist, and professional partner and friend to Margaret Mead with whom she published and edited various articles and publications.

9 Pages including a handwritten note draft to Margaret Mead.

Date: 1970's and 80's
