Series 5: Manuscripts
Inside of the Manuscripts series are documents that Alan wrote while he was a student, most of which were about drama and theatre and its impacts on Deaf culture. Perhaps most interesting in this series are folders six and seven in box 15 titled “Living in Silence.” This manuscript about Alan’s life was being worked on with the assistance of Anna Michel and was planned to be published; however, it was never completed. Nonetheless, it is an intriguing autobiography of Alan’s childhood.
