Five letters to Helen and Alec Grant from Joan Anstee, 1972 - 1976

 File
Reference Code: GBR/0271/GCPP Grant 2/8

Scope and Contents

These are long annual letters giving much news, chiefly re UN work, life in Chile and New York etc, also some personal news - nothing sensitive [death of remaining parent in 1972 etc]. Copies of these letters were presumably sent to many friends and colleagues. Most bear UN addresses, although two bear a personal address in Chile, which she appears to have left for good in 1976.
