- Summary
- Geraldine Louise Wilson (1931-1986), was an early childhood specialist, poet, writer and civil rights activist. Wilson would begin her educational career in Philadelphia. She moved to New York City and would eventually become Director of the Regional Training Office for the Head Start Program. She also worked as a consultant. During the 1960s Wilson joined the Student Nonviolent Coordinating Committee (SNCC) and was a co-planner of the Mississippi Institute for Early Childhood Education. The collection, dating from the 1950s to the 1980s, mostly focuses on Wilson's career as an educator, consultant and poet and to a lesser extent the Civil Rights Movement. There are audio and moving image materials that support the collection.
