Abstract:
Papers of a radio and television writer best known for his creation of the humorous daytime serial Vic and Sade (NBC). Scripts for this radio program comprise the bulk of the collection, but there are also materials pertaining to Keystone Chronicles (NBC), The Public Life of Cliff Norton (NBC), and other programs which Rhymer wrote either as an NBC staff member or as a free-lance writer. A small quantity of correspondence includes letters from James Gould Cozzens, Upton Sinclair, and James Thurber and memoranda circulated in the NBC continuity department. Also present are photographs; contracts; book reviews written for the Chicago Sun-Times; articles about Rhymer; and a copy of The Small House Halfway Up the Next Block (1972), Mrs. Rhymer's book about the Vic and Sade program.
