content: Barbara Ritchie Honeyman was born in 1910 in Portland, Oregon. She attended Smith College, graduating in 1932. Honeyman did her graduate work at New York University in the early 1950s.  In 1953 She married Scott Alexander Heath.  After his death in 1974, she married G. Frederick Roll. Barbara Honeyman Heath Roll was a leading authority on somatotyping (the study of human physical types in relation to culture and society) challenging the work of her former mentor, anthropologist William Sheldon.  In 1958, Margaret Mead asked Roll to conduct a somatype study of the Pere villagers to compliment Mead's own longitudinal study of social change on the Manus Island.  Roll's collaboration with Mead resulted in 16 visits to Pere village over the next 30 years. Roll died in 1998 in Carmel, California.

content: Outtakes are from an edited film which is part of a series on Tibetan Buddhism created by Bastian during his research and teaching in Tibetan Buddhist studies. The footage was shot during the four seasons in Lukil Valley, Ladakh, India and is the first film portrait of the annual cycle of ritual interdependence between Buddhist monks, laity, diety-protectors, and nature. The film observes how Buddhist families incorporate ethical precepts, prayers, and rituals into their daily life for healing; planting and harvesting crops; and warding off evil spirits. Documented are subsistence practices in the high valleys of Ladakh and the Tibetan plateau as well as weaving, dyeing, pottery making, and the preparation of herbal medicines. Film concludes with documentation of the winter chaam, a festival dance of protector deities, and the torgyal, a ritual battle performed to dispatch evil forces.  Also includes sound recordings.

This subseries consists of prints, negatives, and slides produced by Chickering and Porterfield in their print photography career. It is arranged in two further subseries: 9.3.1 Selected photographs, circa 1985-circa 1995; and 9.3.2 Travel slide collection, 1963-2001, undated.

Subseries 9.3.1 consists of prints, negatives, and slides. Prints and negatives are largely associated with the New York Times, while slides were mostly deposited with Photo Researchers; these images, which often remained in their original return mailing envelopes, were selected by Chickering and Porterfield for publication submission and may or may not have been published.

Subseries 9.3.2 encompasses an estimated 146,500 35mm slides with a wide geographic range, though a particular emphasis on North American, Caribbean, and European tourist sites and ports. Many slides (especially those sent out for deposit with a stock photography company) are individually labeled with explanatory captions. In contrast to 9.3.2, these slides remained in the binders in which Chickering and Porterfield had originally housed them, suggesting they were retained in storage rather than submitted for publication.

Slides that had been housed in binders are arranged alphabetically by geographic location, then chronologically. Other photographs arrived loose and generally remain unarranged. Many materials still in original housing.

Series 4 consists of materials from 1959-2002, undated, and is comprised of magazine and newspaper articles in two categories: articles and photography generated by Chickering and Porterfield, and articles by others concerning Chickering and Porterfield. The former is largely made up of travel writing and photography over a wide geographic range, and includes a substantial amount of work on cruise ship vacations. The latter primarily addresses the pair's filmmaking career, with a large volume of articles from the 1960s-1970s. The materials in this series include original newsprint and magazines as well as photocopies, and were retained to provide the researcher with a centralized collection of press generated by Chickering and Porterfield in their professional lives.

For travel writing manuscripts, please see series 3.3. For associated photography, see series 9.
