This series primarily consists of personal correspondence between Michelle Crone and her friends and personal acquaintances. Crone's personal life often overlapped with her professional and political life, and thus, many letters discuss topics from other series. Postcards and greeting cards were retained only when they possessed informational content. Additionally, the "Resumes" folder contains several version of Crone's resume, documenting a number of events and activities that she was involved with until 1996.
