Overview
Frances C. Allen Fellowship for Women of American Indian Heritage
This fellowship is for women of American Indian heritage working on a project appropriate to the collections of the Newberry Library. Applicants may be working in any graduate or pre-professional field. Financial support varies according to their need and may include travel expenses.

The tenure of the fellowship is from one month to one year. Applicants must submit a budget of travel and research expenses. Awards will vary up to $8,000 of approved expenses.
First awarded in 1983, the fellowships were established in 1980 by will of Frances Cornelia Wolfe Allen (1894-1980). A strong advocate of education, Allen became interested in the Newberry Library's programs after her 1977 and 1978 visits, while her daughter, Helen Hornbeck Tanner, was director of the Atlas of Great Lakes Indian History Project.
