Correspondence includes invoices and letters from artists, including David Smith, Dorothy Leibes, and Jacob Lawrence; memos and invoices from her publishing agent, McIntosh and Otis Inc.; and correspondence from her brother and sister, Ross McCausland and Helen McCausland Kentor, regarding their personal lives and the family's estate.

The general project files consist of research and miscellaneous material gathered on artists, subjects, and other potential writing projects.
