Papers of Norman Jewison, a noteworthy motion picture producer-director, chiefly comprised of materials relating to films made for Universal Studios and the Mirisch Corporation. Pertaining to such films as The Cincinnati Kid (MGM, 1965), Fiddler on the Roof (UA, 1972), Gaily, Gaily (UA, 1969), Jesus Christ, Superstar (Universal, 1973), In the Heat of the Night (UA, 1967), The Russians Are Coming, The Russians Are Coming (UA, 1966), and The Thomas Crown Affair (UA, 1968) are correspondence, scripts, photographs, technical production information, contracts, reviews, clippings (some available on microfilm), financial records, and sound track recordings. Jewison's later films are usually well documented and the files trace each title from preproduction planning to distribution and publicity. In addition to the normal production files, the material on Superstar is of interest for its portrayal of Jews' role in the death of Christ. Filed with a group of protest letters from concerned Jewish organizations is one letter from Golda Meir. Also part of the papers are scripts, correspondence, and synopses for unproduced films; scripts and tape recordings for several television programs directed for the Canadian Broadcasting Corporation and various U.S. networks; general correspondence; and a documentary about Jewison as a filmmaker.

Biography/History
Norman Jewison--motion picture director/producer--was born on July 21, 1927 in Toronto, Canada. He was interested in the world of theater and film from an early age, but had to work his way through college by taking a variety of jobs; from time to time he worked as a waiter, a vegetable picker and a taxi driver. After graduating from the University of Toronto with a Bachelor of Arts degree, young Jewison took his $140 in savings and traveled by tramp steamer to England, where he became a writer and actor for the British Broadcasting Corporation.
When opportunities in Canadian television expanded, Jewison went home to become a producer/director for CBC. There he was associated with such top variety shows as The Big Revue, Wayne and Schuster, Showtime and Barris Beat. In 1958 the William Morris Agency suggested he leave Canada and go to New York under a three-year contract with CBS. His first assignment in American television was to revive the faltering Your Hit Parade which had just moved to CBS from NBC. In the late fifties and early sixties Jewison directed many highly acclaimed specials, starring such personalities as Judy Garland, Jackie Gleason, Harry Belafonte and Danny Kaye.
Jewison's successful television career served as prelude to what was to become his primary professional interest, the production and direction of motion pictures. In 1962 the director signed a four-picture contract with Universal Studios. Forty Pounds of Trouble (1962), The Thrill of It All (1963), Send Me No Flowers (1964), and The Art of Love (1965) were well-crafted and financially profitable; they gave Jewison the training and reputation that enabled him to make a different kind of film, pictures that combined entertainment with a point of view.
The Cincinnati Kid, made in 1965 for MGM, is considered by Jewison to be his first “serious” film. With its success he achieved the status he needed to become an independent producer/director for the Mirisch Corporation and United Artists. In the following years he made The Russians Are Coming, The Russians Are Coming (1966), a comedy about the absurdity of the cold war; In the Heat of the Night (1967), a study in race relations; The Thomas Crown Affair (1968), a sophisticated stab at the Establishment; Gaily, Gaily (1969), a story on Ben Hecht's reminiscences of his early life in Chicago; and Fiddler on the Roof (1972), an ageless “folk opera” about discrimination and the breakdown of tradition. In addition, in 1970 he produced The Landlord, another comedy about race relations, this time in an urban setting; directed Jesus Christ Superstar; produced Billy Two Hats; and both produced and directed Roller Ball and F.I.S.T.
Jewison's films have won many awards, including both the New York Film Critics Circle Award and the Academy Award for best picture for In the Heat of the Night. In 1973, Jewison was named Director of the Year by the National Association of Theatre Owners.
Jewison is interested in film primarily as an art, rather than as an industry. As a producer he is aware of the financial realities of filmmaking, but he is an advocate of full artistic control for the filmmaker. He feels the authenticity and atmosphere of location shooting cannot be matched in a studio back lot, and he does not consider stars necessary to the making of a successful film. His own films testify to the legitimacy of his philosophy.
Mr. Jewison and his wife, the former Margaret Dixon, have three children, Kevin, Michael and Jennifer.
Scope and Content Note
The Norman Jewison Papers are divided into six series: General, Television, Theater, Motion Pictures, Motion Pictures (Unproduced) and Submissions. Within each of these series, the materials are ordered chronologically.
The GENERAL series consists primarily of correspondence with agents, interviews and clippings, and papers documenting Jewison's involvement in such political activities as Citizens Against ABM and New York Mayor John Lindsay's re-election campaign.
In the TELEVISION series, there is little about Jewison's Canadian experience except some lighting notes, a script for Off Limits and two tape recordings for The Denny Vaughn Show. Scripts and production information are available for several American television specials, including The Fabulous Fifties, the Harry Belafonte specials, The Secret World of Eddie Hodges, The Million Dollar Incident and An Hour with Danny Kaye.
One folder in Box 3 contains THEATER information--correspondence and the settlement agreement for Here's Love, a Broadway play with which Jewison was briefly associated as director.
The series MOTION PICTURES (Boxes 3-27, 29-36 ) comprises the bulk of the collection. The series deals with the films Jewison was associated with as director and/or producer, beginning with The Thrill of It All in 1963 and ending with F.I.S.T. in 1978. There are primarily correspondence and scripts for the first films, but documentation becomes more extensive with The Russians Are Coming, The Russians Are Coming. Materials include correspondence, several drafts of scripts, contracts, technical production information, financial papers, photos and promotion information. The files for Billy Two Hats consist of information on casting, technical production, and publicity. Included with the latter material is a discussion of the various campaigns considered to sell the film and sample advertisements. Two variant scripts, both co-authored by Sylvester Stallone, are the only documentation for F.I.S.T., a film Jewison directed and co-produced.
The Fiddler on the Roof files reveal efforts to find a suitable location to capture the image of a small Ukranian village and include a critique of Eastern European film production facilities and a brief mention of attempts to obtain insurance for their filming in Yugoslavia in case of invasion or war. The section also includes a file on Marc Chagall, whose permission was sought to film his paintings on shtetl life. Chagall, who was displeased with the stage production, refused permission.
Documentation for Jesus Christ Superstar covers all aspects of production and includes a discussion on costuming and the type of character portrayals that Jewison sought. Also included is an eight-page summary of a lawyer's attempt to squash a Rhodesian theatrical production that was unauthorized. Of interest in addition to the regular production files are materials relating to the controversy surrounding the film's portrayal of the role of Jews in the trial and death of Christ. The motion picture elicited letters of criticism and concern from such groups as the Jewish Film Advisory Committee, the American Jewish Committee, and the Anti-Defamation League; the latter file includes a letter by Golda Meir (July 16, 1973). Letters defending the film and Jewison's rebuttal to critics are also contained in the files.
MOTION PICTURES (UNPRODUCED) (Boxes 24-26) relates to those motion pictures on which Jewison worked but did not finally produce. There is documentation here on Judgment of Corey, The Confessions of Nat Turner and Spector.
Finally, Boxes 27 and 28 concern SUBMISSIONS--correspondence, synopses and scripts dealing with properties that Jewison read and rejected. What Jewison chose not to do, and why, is often as revealing as what he did do.
