The collection consists of two series. The first series contains a set of chronological files Iritani created to organize her correspondence. This series continues the run of Iritani's chronological files found in Series IV of the Ford Foundation records, Developing Countries Program, Program Staff Files (FA528 collection. Iritani was not placed in the Developing Countries Program when she created several of the files found in the collection. Letters from February 1990 show a shift in Iritani's position title from Program Division, Developing Countries Program to just Program Division. Therefore, it was decided during processing to keep the records as a separate collection.
