Scope and content

The Maxwell Anderson papers, 2000-2010, contain records regarding the Indianapolis Museum of Art after Anderson officially took over as director from Anthony Hirschel. The collection contains records primarily sourced from the director’s office and documents the administrative actions of the institution from the director level. The collection is organized by subject, but the individual files are in original order with no further arrangement. Due to Anderson’s involvement with the surrounding community, researchers will find information regarding Crown Hill of value. Not all records fall within Anderson’s time as director. The collection contains records regarding Lawrence O’Conner who served as interim director between Hirschel and Anderson. There are also copies, references, or continuations of projects started by past directors that were used by Anderson.
