[Letter from Park Chambers, Tim Doud, and Lawrence Steger to Sterling Houston - December 22, 1992]

Letter from Park Chambers, Tim Doud, and Lawrence Steger of the School of the Art Institute of Chicago to Sterling Houston, prominent San Antonio playwright. They write to thank him for allowing them to house his documentation. It appears that Mr. Houston's contribution was helpful to an exhibition titled Private/Public. The School of the Art Institute played a seemingly large role in the exhibit as well.
