Contact seller5-star sellerAn archive of material belonging to Rosemary Gaffney (?-2024). Gaffney lived in the New York City area with her partner, Joyce Vinson; the two were involved in a number of feminist activist organizations including the New York Radical Feminists (NYRF), the National Organization for Women (NOW-NYC), and the Women's Liberation Cen…ter. Gaffney was a performer, involved in filmmaking with Women Make Movies (WMM), and an employee at Mother Courage for the entire duration that the restaurant was in business, from 1972 to 1977. She also collected feminist literature and material from across the country. The collection spans several decades and includes numerous publications, event flyers, and behind-the-scenes notes from feminist groups. It is highlighted by collections of material related to WMM-particularly the 1976 short Healthcaring: From Our End of the Speculum-women's theater and performance, and women's health. The film and performing arts material records the efforts women put in to carve out a space for their own work in creative fields that were then disproportionately composed of men, while the women's health material documents some of the early organizing around issues that arose from the similar underrepresentation of women and their issues in healthcare. Interestingly, the two topics intersect in the archive, particularly in Healthcaring but also in projects like the "Mental Prisoners Liberation" screening at the Kitchen, which suggests a connection to the psychiatric survivors movement. These materials are of interest to researchers not just of feminist history but also the history of women in film and the arts; working, both in performance and healthcare; and in patient activism. The following description begins with these materials before turning to the remainder of the collection: Other Original and Unpublished Material; NYRF; Women's Strike for Equality; NOW; The Women's Liberation Center; Mother Courage Restaurant; Other Events and Organizations; and Other Publications. Women Make Movies (WMM) Founded in 1969 by Ariel Dougherty, Sheila Paige, and Dolores Bargowski, Women Make Movies is a non-profit feminist film organization based in New York City. It started as a workshop to teach local women to make films, and expanded to include screenings and film distribution. Today, WMM distributes films from nearly thirty countries, and its films have played at Sundance and Cannes. Though generally not found in OCLC, some items offered here may appear in WMM collections at the MoMA and the Academy Film Archive, or in the Ariel Dougherty collection at Harvard University. The present collection includes a significant amount of material on Denise Bostrom and Jane Warrenbrand's 1976 short film Healthcaring: From Our End of the Speculum, which is listed in its own section.
