Inscribed by Merrill on the ffe: "To Maya with love Jimmy 1955'. Maya Deren (1917 - 1961) was a Ukrainian-born American experimental filmmaker and important part of the avant-garde in the 1940s and 1950s. Deren was also a choreographer, dancer, film theorist, poet, lecturer, writer, and photographer. She was a close friend of poet James Merrill and appears as a chief spirit, along with WH Auden, in Merrill's long narrative poem, The Changing Light at Sandover (1976-1980), which incorporates Merrill's experiences with Ouija board with his partner David Jackson. Signed or inscribed copies of Merrill's earlier works like Short Stories are not that common, but those with associations like his with Deren quite scarce indeed. . Inscribed by Author(s).

These workshops bring together approximately eighteen experts in closed session for two days. The topic is determined by the Foundation but the direction that conversation takes is determined by the participants. There is no agenda. The workshops are taped, transcribed, edited, published in the present form and distributed to participants, interested parties, museums and libraries." -- Henry T. Hopkins, director.
