The second subseries, Organization/Subject, primarily consists of files organized by organization/business name or subject, but also includes a small number of geographical files. Most of the records of Taubman's philanthropy can be found in this subseries, including his files on the Archives of American Art, the Whitney Museum, the Wexner Center for Visual Arts at Ohio State University, Harper-Grace Hospital, Sinai Hospital, and numerous Jewish organizations. Other records of note in this subseries are correspondence and legal documents related to Taubman's service on the board of directors of Chase Manhattan Corporation; records of the Athena Group, including information about projects in Moscow; and copies of speeches given by Taubman between 1967 and 1984 on topics such as retailing, urban development, the real estate industry, and charitable giving.
