4. Writings, 1955-2016

 Series

Series Overview

This series, the largest in the collection, consists largely of diaries, journals, and notebooks from the 1950s through the 2010s. In addition, there are sub-series containing creative writing--scripts, poetry, and children's books--and her non-fiction writing, mostly in the form of memoir drafts. One small sub-series contains writings by others that Legendre collected, often on topics related to spirituality, and two others are writings and book drafts on floppy disks and CDs. These diaries and notebooks, CDs, and floppy disks have been placed in chronological order; the remaining files retain their original order.
