New York State Modern Political Archive
Elected officials, interest groups, and activists from New York State.
The New York State Modern Political Archive (NYSMPA) was established in 1982 to document the work of individuals and private interest groups concerned with New York State public policy issues in the 20th century. Originally named the Archives of Public Affairs and Policy, the NYSMPA collects, preserves, and facilitates access to primary sources pertaining to New York State public affairs and policy, and now includes the personal papers of members of the gubernatorial administrations of Nelson A. Rockefeller; papers of former New York Congressional members and elected officials who served in New York State Legislature; and the official records and papers of numerous private groups, professional associations, individuals, public-sector labor unions, community groups, and other organizations concerned with Empire State public-policy issues.

Graves spent 14 years in the New York State Senate. This series contains political, legislative and personal correspondence sometimes separated by subject, author or location and sometimes filed together in less defined groupings. Also included in this series are Senate bills, campaign materials, reference materials, and political and civic organization materials. As she was no longer in the Assembly and campaigning for a seat in the Senate, Graves' unsuccessful 1932 Senate campaign materials are part of this collection.
