| Abstract: |
Moe Biller served as president of the New York Metro Area Postal Union (originally
the Postal Union of Manhattan-Bronx Clerks) from 1959 to 1980. As local president,
Biller led the New York City union through the hard-fought national postal strike
of 1970. From 1980 until his retirement in 2001, Biller was president of the American
Postal Workers Union. This collection is composed of selected APWU presidential files,
documentation of an oral history project carried out by retirees of the New York Metro
Area Postal Union in the late 1970s, as well as a selection of printed items, including
photographs and protest materials, as well as numerous physical artifacts in the form
of plaques and awards.
