Collection contains correspondence, works, diaries and research materials of Mark Popovskii, a prominent literary figure of Russian emigration. The collection also contains writings by contemporary russian authors, photographs, videotapes and scrapbooks of Popovskii's articles in Russian émigré newspapers. The date span of the collection is 1957 - 2000. In the early 1980s a fire at Popovskii's New York apartment destroyed a large part of Popovskii's archive, so the Popovskii Papers contain a very limited number of pre-1980s materials. This also explains the gap in Popovskii's diaries. The bulk of the materials are dated 1985 - 2000.
