The Joel Martin Halpern Collection
consists of various types of materials, both published and unpublished, related to
the Halpern's ethnographic fieldwork and documentation of folk cultures in Eastern
Europe, as well as their work with South Slavs in Ontario, Canada (Series 1) and
Southeast Asia (Series 2). In addition, the collection includes Joel Martin
Halpern's work in Alaska and Arctic Canada among the Inuit (Series 3), and
miscellaneous manuscripts (Series 4).
Provenance
Joel Martin Halpern; Donation; 1997-2000.
Custodial History
Since November 1997, Joel Martin Halpern has donated a substantial amount of
materials related to his and his wife's ethnographic fieldwork to the American
Folklife Center. Prior to arriving at the Library of Congress, a portion of this
collection (33 audio recordings) was stored at The Amherst College Library. Upon
Professor Halpern's request, these materials were deaccessioned in 1997, and he
donated them to the American Folklife Center. Furthermore, 126 black-and-white
photographs (see Box 13) were given to Joel Martin Halpern by the Ethnographic
Museum in Sofia, Bulgaria in exchange for anthropology textbooks. Some of the
unprocessed accruals to this collection will become part of other collections.
Accruals
Multiple unprocessed accruals are held at the American Folklife Center.
Processing History
Processing of the original acquisition and preparation of a collection guide commenced in the
spring of 2000 and was closed on July 31, 2001. Lydia Heretz, Erica Haskell, Theresa
Sotto, and Amanda Cawley processed; Milisa Petronijevic and Predrag Pajic were
consulted; Alexander F. Sheriff and Nancy-Jean Seigel finalized the guide. The
collection guide has undergone a number of revisions, including editing
contributions made by Professor Halpern.
Transfers
- 256 commercial recordings, as well as a Yugoslavian record label catalog and
its supplement, were transferred to the Motion Picture, Broadcasting, and
Recorded Sound Division at the Library of Congress.
- Photocopies of three conference papers on Vietnamese themes, not authored by
the Halperns, were added to the Folklife Reading Room's subject file.
- 558 published works, primarily on ethnographic themes relating to the Balkans,
were transferred to the Acquisitions or the Selection Officer of the East
European Division for addition to the general collection. Copies of the title
pages of these volumes are on file in this collection.

Biographical Notes
Joel Martin Halpern
Joel Martin Halpern was born April 8, 1929, in New York City. Halpern received a
B.A. in History from the University of Michigan in 1950, and in 1956 earned his
Ph.D. in anthropology from Columbia University. He started his teaching career
in 1955 as a lecturer in anthropology at Columbia; he then served as assistant
professor of anthropology at the University of California, Los Angeles, from
1958 to 1963, and as associate professor of anthropology at Brandeis University
from 1963 to 1965. From 1965 to 1967 Halpern was an associate at the Harvard
University Russian Research Center. From 1967 until his retirement in 1992, he
was first associate professor and then professor of anthropology at the
University of Massachusetts at Amherst. His ethnographic research has been
supported by grants from the National Science Foundation, the National
Institutes of Health, the State Department, the Canadian Government, the
National Academy of Sciences, the International Research and Exchanges Board
(IREX), and the National Endowment for the Humanities, as well as by the
University of California at Los Angeles and the University of Massachusetts,
Amherst.
Throughout his career, Halpern has traveled widely and conducted extensive field
research. In the summer of 1950, he studied Eskimo settlements on the Seward
Peninsula of Alaska. In 1953-54 and during several other times throughout his
career (1961-62, 1964, 1978, 1986), Halpern, and his wife traveled to and
resided in various parts of the former Yugoslavia, where they studied Serbian
village folklife. In the mid-1950s, the Halperns also conducted fieldwork in
Laos, while visiting Thailand and Vietnam. At that time, Halpern was employed as
a Field Service Officer with the Community Development Division of USOM (the
American aid mission). He returned on research trips to Laos in 1959 and 1969.
Other research trips took him to Sweden, the Soviet Union, Greece, Israel,
India, Bulgaria, and Canada. Although he conducted research in various global
locations, the majority of the primary source materials in this collection was
gathered in Yugoslavia, Laos, and Canada.
Barbara Kerewsky-Halpern
Barbara Kerewsky-Halpern was born in 1931. She received her B.A. in
geography-geology from Barnard College in 1953, her M.A. in linguistics, and her
Ph.D. in anthropology from the University of Massachusetts, Amherst, in 1979.
Initially, her career focused on socio-linguistics, though she later specialized
in medical anthropology. During her career, Barbara Kerewsky-Halpern has served
a research associate and adjunct professor at the University of Massachusetts.
She has traveled and lectured in Australia, India, Pakistan, and Hungary among
other areas. In 1974, she conducted fieldwork among South Slavic Canadians in
Ontario under the auspices of the Canadian Museum of Civilization. Her research
was supported by the National Science Foundation and the National Endowment for
the Humanities.
Scope and Content
The Joel Martin Halpern Collection consists of photographs, slides, photocopies of
photographs, photocopies of articles, audiotapes, videocassettes, published book
materials, texts in native languages, manuscripts, reproductions of visual images,
and ephemera related to his ethnographic field documentation undertaken from 1949 to
2000 in Asia, Europe, and North America. The materials were assembled by Joel Martin
Halpern, professor emeritus of anthropology at the University of Massachusetts,
Amherst, and by his wife and colleague Barbara Kerewsky-Halpern. The Halperns
conducted their fieldwork primarily from the 1950s to the 1990s, principally in the
area of the former Yugoslavia, as well as in other areas of the Balkans. Their most
intensive fieldwork was among the Serbs. In addition to this work, Joel Halpern
conducted his own ethnographic research among Laotian, Vietnamese, and Inuit ethnic
groups. The research materials in this collection emphasize historic aspects of folk
culture. This includes documentation of material culture, such as architecture,
agricultural implements, household utensils, and costume, as well as intellectual
culture, such as music within the context of peasant tradition and village folk
beliefs, and oral tradition in the setting of kinship structures and the structure
of community social organization.
Much of the primary source material of this collection consists of photographs of
Balkan areas, especially Serbian and Bulgarian villages. There is also a series of
sound recordings of music and interviews with Serbians and Bulgarians (see tape
logs), as well as a collection of folklore programs recorded from Sofia radio, plus
videocassettes of Bosnian and Serbian rural life. In addition there are interviews
with Canadian Inuit people and tapes from the Inuit Broadcasting Corporation
recorded from broadcasts in the Baffin Island area.
Manuscript and photograph dates in the Container List usually refer to publication or
photography dates; the collection contains many photocopies, with some
originals.
