| Abstract: | Interviews with 42 former directors and other individuals significant to the foundation and early history of the National Institute of Mental Health conducted by Eli A. Rubenstein between 1975-1978. |
The collection contains interviews with 42 former directors and other individuals significant to the foundation and early history of the National Institute of Mental Health. Dr. Eli A. Rubenstein conducted the interviews between the years 1975-1978, with the hope of publishing a book about the institute. Unfortunately he was never able to write the book. Consequently, in 1989 he gave his interview collection to the NIMH when James Pittmana proposed creation of a formal oral history program. This program never came to life when funding did not become available.
Each interview contains a transcript and sound cassette, separately filed. Many of the transcripts also contain the individual's curriculum vitae and some also contain associated material, such as articles or conference papers, the interviewee felt pertinent to the subjects discussed during the interview. The Interview Index in box 3 lists each interviewee along with the interview date, number of pages, dates the individual worked at NIMH, and their position title.
