SERIES LIST

Series I. Journals and Personal Memorabilia
Boxes 2-3, 15-16, 37-49

This series contains documents from Wright's childhood through the time of the first donation in 2000. A school records book contains yearly photos of him and information about his teachers and classes from elementary through high school. There are additional mementos from high school, his senior year of high school spent in Germany, his years at the State University of New York at Albany, and his graduate work in comparative literature at the University of California- Berkeley, followed by files on his student loan payments. A draft of his dissertation, "The Chiasmic War: AIDS, Writing, and Gay Community in the US" is found here, as well as his dossier submitted for tenure review at Mount Ida College. The series includes his personal journals from 1970 to 1989, medical files from 1958 to 1995, files about receiving government assistance (welfare and Supplemental Security Income), mementos from places he lived and visited, and some family genealogy.

This series also contains a brown vinyl scrapbook in which he kept newspaper clipping and keepsakes from his youth through adulthood, 1966-1984. The scrapbook shows his early academic successes, Rotary award, and high school achievements and his later political affiliations and involvements. For instance, his membership cards for the American Civil Liberties Union and the National Gay and Lesbian Task Force are included. This scrapbook posed a preservation challenge due to its adhesives and plastics. To preserve a record of the way everything was originally laid out, we photocopied the contents onto acid-free paper. This copy is available in Box 2, folder 32. We removed items that were intact enough and not fused to the pages and are storing them in separate acid-free envelopes.

Series II. Publications and Academic Work
Boxes 3-4, 17-21, 26, 31, 36, 50-52

Publications contains Wright's files from his various writing projects on German literature, German gay history, US gay politics, gay literature, and the bear gay subculture. Included are numerous articles, his dissertation prospectus, and comments by Jim Jones and Billie Aul on the dissertation drafts. As part of his dissertation research, he also collected some files on gay communities in the Netherlands and other European countries. There are manuscripts from The Bear Book I and II, reviews, and correspondence with contributors. Additionally, there are research notes on the history of the Castro as a gay ghetto, utopia, and neighborhood, along with notes/correspondence regarding research into the lives of long-term HIV/AIDS survivors for the "Surviving Soul Murder" project (book?). Non-bear related conference materials where Wright led workshops are also included. There are also a large number of movie and book reviews written by Wright.
