Ford Foundation records, Democracy, Rights, and Justice Program, Vice President, Office Files of Maya Harris, 1996-2005, 1996-2005 .71 Cubic Feet
This collection holds the office files of Ford Foundation executive staff member Maya Harris. However, the records in the collection were not actually created by Harris. They all originate from the Office of Ford Foundation Peace and Social Justice Program Vice President Bradford K. Smith. Inventory information provided by Ford to the RAC described the materials as historical documents, suggesting that Harris had inherited Smith's files and that her Office absorbed those documents into its own records. Harris served as Vice President for Ford's Democracy, Rights, and Justice Program between 2008 and 2013. This program likely succeeded the Peace and Social Justice Program that Smith served. Future accessions may expand the collection so that it includes documents produced by Harris' Office.
