Acquisition InformationThese papers were donated to the NAA by Ann Dunham's daughter, Maya Soetoro-Ng, in2011.

Separated MaterialsObjects have been transferred to the Anthropology Collections department. For moreinformation please contact the department at 301.238.1340.

Processing InformationPrior to their arrival at the National Anthropological Archives (NAA) in 2011, the S. AnnDunham papers were provisionally processed by Bronwen Solyom, a librarian at the Universityof Hawaii, Manoa and friend of Ann Dunham’s, with the help of volunteers. Solyom re-housedand labeled the majority of the materials in archival folders and sorted, re-housed, and labeledphotographs and negatives in mylar sleeves. Solyom had proof sheets printed for someof the negatives and slides. A preliminary arrangement was determined during this phaseof processing as, other than the field notebooks, the materials had very little intrinsic ordercreated by Dunham.

Upon arrival at the NAA, the archivist re-boxed all the material, re-housed slides, somephotographs, and oversized items, removed plastic bindings and deconstructed the spiralnotebooks, removed and copied post it notes, removed rusty fasteners, and interleaved

newspaper clippings and other highly acidic materials. The existing folder description wasedited for consistency and dates were determined and added to the description wherenecessary. The series delineations and order determined by Solyom were minimallyrearranged and streamlined by the NAA archivist. Many of the series notes in this collectionwere written based on information provided by Solyom.

Dunham worked for Bank Rakyat Indonesia (BRI), the Peoples Bank of Indonesia, between 1988 and1992 on short-term consultancies funded by the World Bank. She was associated with the HarvardInstitute for International Development that advised the Minister of Finance and BRI.

Dunham managed and supervised research in seven Indonesian provinces on BRI’s rural bankingprograms, from development of design strategies to presentation of final recommendations. She was

Series 2: Professional S. Ann Dunham papersNAA.2011-04

Page 14 of 35

involved at a critical period when BRI’s failing government-subsidized rural credit program for ricefarmers (known as BIMAS) had been discontinued, and was being replaced by a rapidly expandingunsubsidized commercial microfinance operation made widely available to a variety of rural and thenmore general borrowers. It became very successful. Through market potential surveys (MARPOTSU)and arrears studies, Dunham obtained data that supported her argument for replicating and expandingthe program to a wider range of small borrowers than at first envisioned, and to understanding andreducing the rate of arrears in loan repayments.

She worked at Woman’s World Banking in New York as Research and Policy Coordinator from February1993 to mid-1994. There are very few hardcopy papers from this period as much of the material relatingto her work was saved on floppy disks.

The Bank Rakyat Indonesia materials appear first in alphabetical order. The Women's World Bankingmaterial is filed at the end of the series.

This series comprises material related to Ann Dunham’s academic work, dated 1973-1992. Thematerial primarily deals with her graduate work including reading lists and examination questions for hercomprehensive exams, and reports, interviews, notes, proposals, drafts, and correspondence regardingher dissertation.

Dunham began her PhD program in 1978. After dropping out of school, Dunham was readmitted in 1984and completed her comprehensive examinations in 1986. It took her 14 years to complete her dissertation.She carried out intensive field research in 1978–79 with support of an East-West Center scholarship, afterwhich she continued the research sporadically, while working to support her children and pay for theireducation.

During this time, the scope of the dissertation was narrowed from a study of five non-agricultural ruralindustries in Central Java, to a single industry, blacksmithing, focused on Kajar village.

This series includes documents relating to her early dissertation work as she was planning her researchand defining its scope. It includes a field study proposal, an outline, a draft of Chapter 1, compilations ofinformation on Kajar, notes for blacksmithing and metalworking glossaries, and statistics on metal workingindustries. The series also includes her later correspondence with her dissertation committee, a reviseddissertation outline, and drafts of near final chapters and the table of contents.

In addition, this series includes miscellaneous writings by Dunham, primarily on topics related toIndonesia.
