  • A collection of letters written by Mary Wigman, great German modern dance pioneer, to Miss Margaret Erlanger, Supervisor of the Dance Division at the University of Illinois. The correspondence begins with Miss Wigman's replies to Miss Erlanger's inquiries about a summer session at the Wigman School in Berlin, and reflects the warm friendship which follows (1952-1969).
  • Also included are two letters to a Mr. Potter written by Mary Wigman in 1932, and a number of letters to Margaret Erlanger from other correspondents discussing topics including Wigman Day in Milwaukee, Wisconsin, March 23, 1958 and Mary Wigman's 80th Birthday Celebration, November 13, 1966.
