The Downing collection affords us a wide overview of her life, both personally and professionally. The collection contains memento folders from 1955 through 2006, documentation of her creative process for the nine books she has written, the five she edited, and numerous others that are in different stages of completion. Additionally, the collection holds a significant body of correspondence, both personal and professional, lecture outlines and notes, syllabi, and recordings of many of the courses she has taught over a period of more than four decades at Rutgers, San Diego State University, California School of Professional Psychology and Pacifica Graduate Institute.
