The Michael Kleff Research Collection (MKRC) contains materials created or gathered by Michael Kleff in his work as author, radio producer, and presenter throughout the 1980 – 2020s. Items in the MKRC have been arranged by Person or Subject, and – where possible – the original order of Michael Kleff’s filing has been maintained.

Title: Michael Kleff Research Collection

Creators: Michael Kleff

Extent: 65+ Vertical File Boxes (TBD)

Language: English + German

Location: Michael Kleff Research Office / 125 East Main Street, Suite #200 Mount Kisco, NY 10549

Processing Archivist: Tiffany Colannino, 2022 – 2023

Processing Notes:

Arrangement of this collection is based on Michael Kleff’s original filing system. Folder titles have been edited for clarity and consistency. Date ranges have been added to folder titles. Original content of the folders has been maintained. Preservation concerns have been addressed, including removal of galvanized staples, interfiling of news clippings with acid-free papers, photographs or fragile original paper documents have been sleeved in polypropylene film protectors, and any plastic, cardboard, or other original filing tools have been removed and discarded. All items have been housed in acid-free Archival Record Storage Cartons (15” x 12” x 10.5”), Box 01 - 12. Materials have been described at the folder level.

Additional Materials:

In addition to the contents of Box 01 - 15, there are other unprocessed research files in the MKRC. The Research Files include approximately 307 linear inches (65+ vertical magazine boxes) of newspaper clippings, printed materials, articles, ticket stubs, concert programs, photographs, and other ephemeral materials collected and arranged by Michael Kleff for use as background research materials for work on his Radio Shows. Materials are arranged by subject, person, event, or theme. Related to these files are a collection of commercially available Books and Audio CDs organized by similar themes. These additional items are similar in scope to the materials processed in Box 01 - 12. Similar “More Product/Less Process” work can be completed on these files with the goal of stabilizing the documents through preservation work and providing points of access to the materials by generating a Finding Aid providing an overview of the people/events/themes into which Kleff has organized the files. There is no need to re-arrange the research files into physical alphabetical or chronological order, this can be accomplished though searching the Finding Aid and identifying each folder with a both a descriptive title and a unique identifier (Box Number, Folder Number). There may be some duplication of titles, and where possible notes will be made in the finding aid to direct the researcher to similarly titled folders or materials.
