Correspondents include extended family – Treuhaft's sister and cousins, and Mitford's family, including one of her sisters, Deborah Cavendish, Dutchess of Devonshire. Friends include writers Kay Boyle and Gail Sheehy, with short notes from correspondents as diverse as former cliients, Lawrence Ferlinghetti, Shana Alexander, and Hillary Clinton (as a law student she served a summer internship at Treuhaft's firm; her communication is a note extending condolences to Treuhaft from herself and then-President Clinton upon Mitford's death).
