Subseries Scope and Content Summary

From the Sub-Series:

This subseries contains a small number of files relating to Paul Nash's private and academic life. The Personal file includes a 1979 letter from the Los Angeles Police Department relating to a confrontation between Nash and two police officers in Griffith Park, materials relating to the 1986 general election, and a congratulatory note in the California Medical Review employee newsletter congratulating Nash and Lombardi on their participation in the mass "marriage" at the 1987 March on Washington. Two files derive from a speech class Nash took at Los Angeles City College in 1977; they include extensive course materials and note cards for four speeches, one autobiographical, the others on Alex Haley's television program Roots, journalism and the gay press, and the Panama Canal. The Abigail Van Buren file contains correspondence between Nash and Van Buren relating to his MA thesis on articles relating to homosexuals and the GLBT community printed in the Los Angeles Times, and her positive treatment of homosexuals in her "Dear Abby" newspaper column.
