The Anthony D. Pellegrini papers contain a variety of play-related scholarly articles. Photocopies or prints of articles written by Pellegrini comprise approximately half of the collection. A few documents have notes or accompanying correspondence. Photocopied reprints of articles written by other authors make up the remainder of the collection; many of these have been annotated by Pellegrini during his research. These are arranged by subject, with two folders arranged alphabetically by author last name. The bulk of the materials are dated between 1979 and 2009. One DVD containing digital copies of selected Pellegrini articles and draft book chapters is also included in this collection.

The Anthony D. Pellegrini papers are arranged into two series, one of which is further divided into subseries. The materials are housed in seven archival document boxes.
