The audiovisual collection, which is now opened for research, has a fascinating variety of materials, including film reels, vinyl records, and audio cassettes reflecting Doris\u2019 interests in travel, music, the performing arts, and historical events. It\u2019s chock-full of surprises for those willing to delve into the detailed and intricate collection. Homemade recordings of Doris practicing the piano and singing, four original nitrate film reels of the Nazi Supreme Court Trial of the Anti-Hitler Plot from 1944-45 (which we\u2019re presuming Doris obtained while working for the Office of Strategic Services [OSS] during World War II), and a somewhat sketchy telephone interview with Howard Hughes from the 1970s are just a few of the treasures awaiting discovery in this collection.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center\"><a href=\"http:\/\/blogs.library.duke.edu\/rubenstein\/files\/2013\/06\/ddpph011600130.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter  wp-image-7989\" alt=\"ddpph011600130\" src=\"http:\/\/blogs.library.duke.edu\/rubenstein\/files\/2013\/06\/ddpph011600130.jpg\" width=\"600\" height=\"422\" srcset=\"https:\/\/blogs.library.duke.edu\/rubenstein\/files\/2013\/06\/ddpph011600130.jpg 1000w, https:\/\/blogs.library.duke.edu\/rubenstein\/files\/2013\/06\/ddpph011600130-300x210.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 600px) 100vw, 600px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>The Doris Duke Audiovisual Collection also marks a significant milestone for the Doris Duke Charitable Foundation Historical Archives. It is the final collection in the historical archives to be processed, described, and opened for research, thus ending my three year processing journey.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: left\">Working so intimately with the materials has been quite a remarkable experience, and not surprisingly I\u2019ve grown quite attached to both Doris Duke and the materials over the past three years! The nineteen collections comprising the historical archives are filled with artifacts and clues that leave evidence of a woman who did big things, yet they also give insight to unexpected and hidden facets of Doris\u2019 life. Collectively they paint a picture of Doris that challenges the general perception of her as an eccentric and tragic figure.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: left\">While I am sincerely grateful for having had the opportunity to process and promote the materials in the historical archives, I am equally thankful for having had the chance to meet researchers and patrons interested in both Doris Duke and the historical archives. Their enthusiasm for learning more about her spurred several of the events, exhibits, and digital initiatives developed during the course of the processing project.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: left\">And so a journey for me ends, but the journey for the materials in the historical archives continues!<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: left\"><em>Post contributed by Mary Samouelian, the former Doris Duke Collection Archivist.
