Title: First Peace Corps Volunteer Families: Diary of the Zieglers in Colombia, South America, 1970-1972
Date: 1970/1972
Creator: Ziegler, Claire; Ziegler, Delwyn
Description: This diary details the daily volunteer experiences of the Ziegler family from 1970-1972 in Colombia, South America. Delwyn was age 38, Claire was age 30, Colette 4 1/2, and Andre 2 1/2. Delwyn, a former hospital controller, worked in business administration programs, including small business consulting and hospital administration. Claire, a fluent French speaker, taught French at a high school as well as at the Alliance Française. The Zieglers participated in the Peace Corps' experiment with families. Previously the Peace Corps had accepted only singles and couples. In an attempt to recruit more senior people with experience, the Peace Corps tried to see how families might work out as volunteers. The Zieglers were part of a group of five families recruited for Colombia.
