Scope and Content

From the Collection: Arden Tice's personal papers include correspondence and other materials pertaining to artists and writers of the Southwest, including Vivian Ayres, Robert Burlingame, Jerry and Sally Romotsky, Sandi Casillas, Judson Crews, Mildred Tolbert, Thurman Dillard, Wendell B. Anderson, and Dr. Wolfgang Cordon of Mexico. Tice's collection also includes family correspondence and other materials for her Hewitt ancestors in Oklahoma dating back to the 1880's. The bulk of the collection, however, covers Tice's own life between 1948 and 1987. Her experiences have been diverse and wide-ranging, geographically. The collection contains material on Alaska and Eskimos gathered when Tice was a teacher at Point Barrow (1951-53) and also research materials on the Tarahumara Indians gathered during a visit to Mexico in the late 1960's. Tice also gathered research materials on the Lancandon Indians of Central America for her interview with Dr. Cordon (Secret of the Forest) in 1964.
