Biographical Note
Gitel P. Steed was born Gertrude Poznanski in 1914, in Columbus, Ohio, to Sara Auerbach and Jakob Poznanski. Her mother was a native of Columbus and her father, a businessman, immigrated from Poland. Shortly after her birth, Steed family moved to the Bronx, New York. She eventually attended Waleigh High School, and as a teenager adopted the Yiddish name Gitel.
In 1932 Gitel entered New York University (NYU), majoring in banking and finance, but dropped out after her first year. She later returned to NYU and in 1938 received her B.A. degree with honors in sociology and anthropology. While attending NYU Gitel lived in Greenwich Village where she developed friendships with many including the painter Rafael Soyer. She is the subject of at least two paintings by Soyer, "Girl in a White Blouse," 1932, which now hangs in the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York, and "Two Girls," 1933, which is in the collections of the Smart Museum of Art, on the campus of the University of Chicago. It was at this same time that Gitel met her future husband, the artist Robert Steed.
In 1938, with financial support arranged by Ruth Benedict, she entered graduate school in anthropology at Columbia University, where she studied under Benedict for three years. During this time Gitel undertook the first two of four ethnological projects that marked her career in anthropology. The first of these projects, under the direction of Ruth Benedict, she conducted among the Blackfoot Indians in Montana. Then, from 1939 to 1941 she worked with Vilhjalmur Stefannsson on Inuit in Greenland, studying hunter-gatherer diet and subsistence patterns. This was to be the basis of her dissertation, but she never completed the Greenland project and only much later (1969) completed her dissertation, basing it on her India research. In 1941 she left Columbia and worked until 1943 as the senior editor of information at Yale University's Institute of Human Relations.
In 1944 she was invited to join the Jewish Black Book Committee. A group of writers and researchers supported by the World Jewish Congress and other anti-fascist Jewish organizations, this committee documented in detail the Nazi death campaign against Jews in Europe during World War II. The committee compiled papers subsequently published as The Black Book: The Nazi Crime Against the Jewish People (1946). Gitel contributed a 130-page section called "Strategies of Decimation" in which she documented Nazi Germany's policies and techniques of extermination.
In 1945 and again in 1947 she taught at Hunter College in New York. In 1946 she taught at Fisk University and there edited the journal Race Relations. In 1947 she married Robert Steed, and in 1953 gave birth to their only child, Andrew Hart Steed.
She began her third ethnological project in 1947 when she was invited to join the Columbia University Research in Contemporary Cultures Project. In this project, co-directed by Ruth Benedict and Margaret Mead, Steed's assignment was to work among Chinese immigrants in New York City. Some of the results of Steed's work were published in Mead and Metraux, The Study of Culture at a Distance (1953).
After a similar China project had to be canceled, Steed formulated her fourth ethnographic project, a field study in India. Funding was received through a grant from the Department of the Navy and Steed was appointed Director of the Columbia University Research in Contemporary India Project. Upon her return to the U.S. from India in 1951, Steed presented her findings in several seminars. The most in-depth of these seminars was a lecture series, run by Abram Kardiner, that she gave at Columbia University in 1953-1954. Due to a disagreement between Steed and Kardiner, the funding for the India project was discontinued.
Steed joined the faculty of Hofstra College in New York in 1962. While teaching at Hofstra, she completed her dissertation at Columbia University, "Caste and Kinship in Gujarat: The Social Use of Space" (1969). In 1970 she returned to Kasandra for four months, with her husband, at which time she interviewed many of her old informants about social change in the village. Steed remained on the faculty of Hofstra University until she died in 1977, at the age of 63.
INDIA FIELD PROJECT
The India field project was a team effort carried out between 1949 and 1951 in three different villages in northwestern and north central India. The primary research team included Steed, as Project Director; an anthropology graduate student, James Silverberg; a British psychiatrist, G. Morris Carstairs; and Steed's husband, Robert Steed. Silverberg's wife Donna also joined the team for some time, as did an assistant researcher, Cecil B. Massey. They were joined in India by a team of Indian interpreters and researchers. These included Bhagvati Masher and Kantilal Mehta, who worked as interpreters; Nandlal Dosajh, a psychologist; N. Prabhudas, an economist who conducted the land utilization survey; and Jerome D'Souza as cook. In the second year of research, the team also included an Indian assistant, Tahera, as well as Americans Grace Langley and John Koos. The three villages were "Kasandra" in Gujarat state, "Nawabpur" in Uttar Pradesh, and "Deoli" in Rajasthan. The villages were referred to by these pseudonyms throughout the project. Steed worked primarily in Kasandra for one year (1950). She started work in Nawabpur as well but had to cut her stay there short because of illness. James Silverberg worked in both Kasandra (1950) and in Nawabpur (1951), staying in each place for one year. Carstairs worked in Sujarupa village for Steed, 1949-1950. (Carstairs did separate research in Deoli in 1951-1952 and wrote "The Twice-Born" (1957) about it.)
Steed and her team of researchers made use of a variety of fieldwork methods, gathering data both on individual psychology and on social institutions. Most of their data on individual psychology they derived from detailed life histories collected from a sample of informants. These life histories comprised long sets of free-ranging interviews that were designated "personal narration," a battery
of psychodiagnostic tests (whose validity they subsequently questioned and dismissed), as well as watercolors and drawings by both adults and children. Data on social institutions were collected through survey methods as well as participant observation. They completed thorough surveys on land tenure and economic relations, and collected data on economic, political, religious, kinship, and caste organization.
Steed formulated the project within the broader agenda of culture and personality studies in anthropology. The theoretical and methodological agenda of culture and personality studies was to study the relation between individual personality and the socio-cultural context of their enculturation. Steed was interested in studying the extent to which Indian social institutions determined individual behavior and personality. Conversely, she also asked if innate psychological or personal aspects influenced institutions. She analyzed both the cultural and the psychological aspects of character formation and was interested in where these two aspects met.
In order to judge the relation of social institutions to personality formation, the researchers required a basis for comparison, and thus they chose three villages with different institutional frameworks. Kasandra and Deoli were predominantly Hindu villages, while Nawabpur was predominantly Muslim. Each of the three villages had a different land tenure system and political history as well as being linguistically distinct.
Scope Note
The Gitel P. Steed papers, dating from 1907 to 1980, have been arranged in eight series. The basic organization of materials in these series conforms closely to the organization of the papers upon their arrival. The main feature of the collection is the material on three Indian villages in Series III to V, where the bulk of the collection is found.
Research notes from the project are found in four basic forms: life histories, general notes, field notebooks, and note extracts. Life histories comprise typed transcriptions of sets of interviews with a select number of informants as well as results and notes taken on psychodiagnostic tests administered by the researchers. General notes are typed notes that the researchers maintained on a daily basis, in which they included the results of participant-observation in the village. Field notebooks are the rough, handwritten primary sources from which both of the former sets of notes were transcribed. Finally, note extracts refer to excerpts cut, sometimes in thin strips of as little as one line of type, from both the general notes and the life history material and then refiled under topical categories such as religion, economics, and caste and kinship. Steed and her team also compiled detailed topical indices to both the general notes and the life histories. The most elaborate indices appear in a subseries of Series III.
Certain conventions adopted by Steed and her research team have been maintained in the collection. These conventions include (1) the use of pseudonyms and informant numbers to protect the anonymity of informants, and (2) the analysis of life history data, psychodiagnostic tests, and general notes, which has led to duplicated material in different parts of the collection. Pseudonyms apply to both villages and individual informants within each village. The village pseudonyms and informant numbers used in this inventory are the same as those used by the research team. Informant lists found at the beginning of Series III, IV and V list basic information (name, age, gender, and caste) on each informant by number. In cases where there was no informant number provided for a particular individual, the procedure was to label these cases "unnumbered informant."
Duplication of materials in the collection occurs primarily in Series III through Series V. Excerpts of life histories are found in the subsequent topical subseries, which include government, politics and Rajputs, caste and kinship, economics, and religion. The psychodiagnostic tests are cross-filed under the life history of a particular informant and under their own subseries. The general notes are excerpted in the topical files. Furthermore, all three types of data--life histories, psychodiagnostic tests, and general notes--are in part transcripts from the field notebooks.

The Columbia University Research in Contemporary India Field Project generated a great deal of data but publications stemming from it were relatively few. These publications included Steed's dissertation, "Caste and Kinship in Rural Gujarat" (1969), and her 1955 paper in McKim Marriott's Village India; Silverberg's dissertation, "Peasant Behavior and Its Caste-Relevancy," University of Wisconsin, 1962; and Carstairs' "The Death of a Witch" (1983), in which he incorporated materials from a later project as well as the original project.

INVENTORY
Series I: Columbia University Research Contemporary Cultures Project |
This series comprises materials from Steed's research from 1947 to 1949 among Chinese immigrants in New York City. It includes transcripts of several informant life histories collected by Steed as well as a manuscript by Ruth Bunzel.
The project, under the direction of Ruth Bunzel, was funded initially by a grant from the Human Resources Division of the Office of Naval Research, and coincided with the trend in anthropology during and just after WWII to study "culture and personality."
Steed worked with individuals and families who had migrated to New York fromChina's Kwantung Province, and used primarily life histories, community "self-analysis," and projective, psychodiagnostic tests. She collected data on friendship and childhood, among other topics.

Series II: The Columbia University Research in Contemporary India Field Project |
This series contains general and preliminary material related to Steed's research work in India. The series is divided into five subseries: General Files, Seminar on Rural India, Urban Life Histories and Tests, Note Cards, and Maps And Charts. (A description of the Field Project follows the subseries description).
Subseries 1: General Files, contains Steed's writings on the India research, including her dissertation as well as a screenplay she wrote based on characters in Kasandra; basic research materials used in the psychodiagnostic tests administered as part of the gathering of life histories; a preliminary research report; newspaper clippings, correspondence, and bibliographies; and a set of detailed inventories of the papers compiled in 1980 by James Silverberg, one of the original project team members. These inventories may be of value to the researcher who wishes to know more about the kind of material located in the files.
Subseries 2: Seminar On Rural India, comprises the set of lectures that Steed presented at Columbia University in 1952-1953. These lectures represent her first and perhaps most thorough examination of her fieldwork material. In these lectures she clearly states her theoretical goals and research methods.
Subseries 3: Urban Life Histories, contains material which was compiled in urban India prior to the village studies. These interviews and tests functioned in part as trials and in part as points for comparison to the subsequent rural studies.
Subseries 4: Note Cards, includes two card boxes of field data analysis, consisting of cut and paste notes taken from the General Notes and grouped into a set of topical areas. A third box of note cards consists of reading research notes on books and articles about India.
Subseries 5: Maps and Charts, contains maps that range in scale from the Indian sub-continent to state and district maps as well as maps of the villages produced by the research team. The charts consist of large kinship diagrams as well as posters of caste and marriage relations. Some maps from Steed's early fieldwork in Greenland are also to be found here. These latter are, however, the only material from her Inuit research in the collection.

Series III: Kasandra, 1950 |
This series contains all of the research materials produced from the study of Kasandra, a village in Gujarat State. These files were divided into eighteen subseries.
Subseries 1, Informant Life Histories and Psychodiagnostic Tests, contains life history material for 25 informants and includes a personal narration as well as a set of psychodiagnostic tests. The personal narration consists of typed transcriptions of interviews that took place in some cases over the course of an entire year. Informants were asked to speak and reflect as freely as possible on the things that they felt affected their life as they grew up and interacted with others. The psychodiagnostic tests include one or more of the following: Rorschach (which asks informants to identify shapes in ink blots), Thematic Apperception Test (which informants are shown a series of illustrations and asked to talk about the situation, people in it, what they might be doing, thinking, or feeling), Horn-Hellersberg (a drawing test), Draw-a-man (which informants are asked to draw and comment on a man, woman and child), and Color Association Test (designed for India, where informants are given a set of words and asked to
associate a color with the idea conveyed by the words). The amount of data varies for each informant.
Subseries 2, Psychodiagnostic Tests, contains the results of all tests categorized not by informant but by the test type. The tests were administered to more informants than were asked to give personal narration's.
Subseries 3 and 4, General Notes, contain notes by Gitel Steed and James Silverberg, respectively. These are typed transcripts from field notebooks that contain daily observations of life and work in Kasandra and have been chronologically arranged.
Subseries 5, Census Data, contains data of the village, including economic information categorized by household and caste. A set of maps of Kasandra is also included. Some of these maps are smaller versions of those found in Series II, subseries 5.
Subseries 6, Indices, contains a set of indices that Steed and her team devised in order to locate data on certain topics within their notes. Indices for demography, caste, politics, economics, religion, child behavior, and social relations are included. These indices reference the dates and page numbers of data to be found in general notes, life histories, and psychodiagnostic tests.
Subseries 7 through 13 are topical. Government, Politics, and Rajputs; Caste and Kinship; Economics; Land Tenure; Land Utilization Survey; Structure of Family and Child Life; and Religion. These subseries include maps, charts, genealogies, survey results, copies of government surveys and reports, a few manuscripts on the specified topics, and many extracted notes. The extracted notes are for the most part cut-and-pasted portions taken from general notes and life histories.
Subseries 14 through 16, Field Notebooks, were kept by Steed, Silverberg, and others, respectively. These are the notebooks that the researchers carried with them to their interviews and on their daily rounds in the village. Most of the notebooks were later typed up and their entries can be found in other places in the collection. It is not always clear which ones have been typed and which ones have not. Aside from the two main researchers, Steed and Silverberg, others also kept notebooks, including both Indian and non-Indian research assistants as well as informants themselves. An account book kept by Robert Steed is also found here. The notebooks are arranged chronologically, and headings correspond to those found on the notebooks themselves.
Subseries 17, Drawings, contains a large number of watercolors and drawings, in pencil, pen, and charcoal, by informants of all ages. Informants drew people, animals, houses, and landscapes as well as other objects of everyday life.
Subseries 18, Interviews, 1970-1971, contains a set of interviews Steed conducted on a return visit to India in 1970-1971. Accompanied by her husband, Steed conducted several interviews, some with her previous informants, to evaluate perceptions of social change in the intervening twenty years.

Series IV: Nawabpur Files, 1951 |
This series contains eleven subseries and includes similar material to those listed above for Kasandra. Nawabpur was a predominantly Muslim village in Uttar Pradesh where the researchers moved for their second year in India. Steed left halfway through their stay in Nawabpur due to illness, and James Silverberg took over the direction of the project during her absence. Steed's general notebooks were continued, in series, by other researchers after she left the field. There are additionally a series of notes taken by Grace Langley, an American graduate student who joined the project as an assistant this second year.

Series V: Deoli Files, 1950 |
This series contains five subseries and includes the typewritten notes and data collected by G. Morris Carstairs while in Deoli, the third village included in the India project. Carstairs worked for the most part alone and stayed in the village for approximately six months. A psychiatrist, Carstairs was mostly interested in life history material, and therefore the bulk of his data is on particular individuals.

Series VI: Art Work by Gitel and Robert Steed |
This series contains 70 photographs by Gitel Steed as well as the artwork of Robert Steed, an artist by profession. Most of Steed's photographs are believed to come from Kasandra, though some from Nawabpur are included as well. These black-and-white photographs portray parents and children, gods and rituals, and a variety of village scenes. Some of her India photographs appeared in Edward Steichen's exhibit on "The Family of Man" at the Museum of Modern Art in New York in 1955 and are reproduced in the book of the same title. Several negatives are also included in the series.
Robert Steed, having accompanied his wife to India, spent a great deal of his time sketching the villagers, their houses, shrines, etc. The collection here includes small pencil sketches on index cards, color and black-and-white xeroxes of other sketches still in the possession of the Steed family, and several watercolors of villagers and of village religious sites.
