This series includes the persona papers of James Whitehead, former director of University Relations, assistant to the president, treasurer, and director of the Reeves Center at Washington and Lee University. These records are from his time as the director of the Reeves Center, and reflect different exhibitions, donor relations, and general correspondence during that time. Much of the collection is correspondence between Whitehead and other museum curators, directors of historical societies, and donors. Includes museum pamphlets, institutional publications, and photographs of collections, and occasionally Whitehead himself. Major subjects of interests covered in the records include matierals concerning the Bicentennial Celebration of American Independence, Foreign Advisory Services (i.e. repossession of Reeves Collection), the Reeves Center, the Morris House, Skylark, Wamsutta Hills, exhibitions of Louise Herreshoff's work, the Reeves Collection of fine China, and miscellaneous correspondence. Also includes some files from Tom Litzenberg, the successor for Whitehead's role as director of the Reeves' center.
