Collection contains the staff subject files that June Zeitlin created during her tenure as Deputy Director of the Ford Foundation's Rights and Social Justice Program. Records consist solely of Zeitlin's chronological correspondence. In addition to the files Zeitlin created when she served in the Rights and Social Justice Program, there is also some material that originates from Zeitlin's time as a Program Officer in the Human Rights and Governance Program. The responsibilities of the Human Rights and Governance Program transferred to the Rights and Social Justice Program in June 1991.

Collection contains the office files of Robert Williams who occupied different records management related positions in the Ford Foundation's Logistical Services unit between 1969 and 1974. Logistical Services operated within the Foundation's Division of Administration, and Williams was hired as a Records Analyst before becoming Records Services Manager. The collection consists of one series of subject files. Williams' staff subject files include a lot of material that originated from before he joined the Foundation and some material that appears to have been created by Robert Mayer who was Officer-in-Charge of Logistical Services. This material may have been collected by Williams or may have been mixed in with his subject files at some point by the Foundation's archives.

The collection contains the personal and professional files of Marcia T. Thompson, longtime promoter of financial stabilization projects in the arts. The collection includes reports and correspondence related to the Trude Lash Fellowship Program, reports and correspondence from Thompson's time at the Ford Foundation, and financial reports, correspondence, and long-term planning materials from the National Arts Stabilization Fund (NASF). There are many files related to the School of American Ballet, the New York City Ballet, and arts stabilization projects in major cities across the United States.

The collection contains the office files of Marcia T. Thompson, program officer in the Office of the Humanities and the Arts at the Ford Foundation from 1953-1983. Contents include background papers, reports, correspondence, grant files, and materials relating to the Symphony Orchestra Program, the Cash Reserve Program, the Ford Foundation Stabilization Program, the Office of the Humanities and the Arts, the Education and Culture Program, and the National Arts Stabilization Fund (NASF).

The Francis X. (Frank) Sutton papers primarily consist of material related to Sutton's time at the Ford Foundation, spanning his tenure as Assistant to the Vice President, Deputy Vice President, and his work writing the history of the Ford Foundation as a consultant. This collection documents Sutton's involvement beyond the Ford Foundation as well; it contains a substantial amount of information on the Aga Khan University in Pakistan, the Rockefeller Foundation and Bellagio Conference, and the Social Science Research Council (SSRC). Additionally, there is a small amount of material on the American Foundation for Intellectual Cooperation with Europe (AFICE) which documents its foundation and eventually, its termination. Personal files can be found at the end of the collection (Series 6) which consist of family correspondence, awards, publications, datebooks, and notebooks – most of which document Sutton's cross-organization involvement, travels, and projects.

Collection contains the office files of Peter W. Stanley who served as Program Officer in Charge and then Program Director of the Ford Foundation's Education and Culture Program from between 1983 and 1991. The Education and Culture Program was situated within the Foundation's United States and International Affairs Program (USIAP). In addition to holding the records that Stanley and his office created and maintained, the collection also includes some material from the larger Education and Culture Program. A few of these documents were created from before and after Stanley's tenure at the Foundation. The records' creators appear to have organized Stanley's files according to file type. The collection's arrangement scheme represents these different types with the implementation of 4 different series. The series are: Series 1. Correspondence files; Series 2. Subject files; Series 3. Meeting and trip files; and Series 4. General files. However, terms like Desk file and Work file were also used to label many of the collection's files and remain part of those files' titles. Moreover, there does not appear to be a clear distinction between the structure and content of files in Series 4. General files and some of the files in Series 1. Correspondence files. Different and evolving filing systems were probably imposed on the records throughout their creation, use, and management.

Collection contains the staff subject files of Ted Smith (Theodore M. Smith) who worked at the Ford Foundation from between 1967 and 1979. Although Smith was primarily associated with the Jakarta, Indonesia Regional Office during his tenure at Ford, the collection so far consists only of the files Smith created during the course of his work on two other projects. First, between 1973 and 1974, he assisted Francis Sutton in reviewing the Foundation's support of public management initiatives in developing countries. Then, between 1974 and 1976, he worked on the Foundation budget under President McGeorge Bundy. Nevertheless, there is some correspondence in the collection that discusses a period of time between 1974 and 1975 where Smith returned to Indonesia at the request of the Indonesian government in order to assist the National Family Planning Coordinating Board.

Collection contains the staff subject files Betty Skolnick created during her time in the Ford Foundation's Middle East and Africa Program (MEA). Between 1973 and 1975, Skolnick served in the MEA, first as a Training Associate and then as an Assistant Program Officer. Materials within the collection document her assistance on Foundation projects aimed at supporting language development research. Records such as correspondence, memos, notes, reports, articles, and brochures show the Foundation's interest in engaging and promoting research regarding language in education, language policy and planning, and linguistics. This research primarily concerns language development in African countries such as Nigeria and Tanzania. Some records document the Foundation's grant support to institutions in African countries for development oriented language research and training.

The collection consists of Dr. Gary Sick's correspondence with grantees regarding ongoing grants, grant rejection and acceptance letters, and requests for further information on proposed projects. The collection also contains Dr. Sick's inter-office memos with Ford Foundation International Affairs program staff regarding grantmaking decisions, Recommended Grant Action forms (RGAs), trip and conference summaries, Dr. Sick's publications, and discussions of how to evenly allocate funding to underserved areas of study.

Collection contains the office files of Ford Foundation program executive Enid C.B. (Curtis Bok) Schoettle.

Schoettle served as Program Officer, Program Officer in Charge, and Director of IAP. Her work primarily focused on managing grants for international security and arms control research and initiatives.
