M2004-120	Part 3 (M2004-120, Audio 505A/33-38): Additions, 1933-1993 Physical Description: 8.3 cubic feet (7 record center cartons and 2 flat boxes), 6 audio recordings (cassette), and 36 photographs Scope and Content Note: Additions, 1933-1993 (bulk late 1970s-early 1990s) consisting of general correspondence including letters and cards from family and friends, scrapbooks containing news clippings and other ephemera related to their careers, and a set of their appointment books listing their daily events and engagements. Papers specific to Walter include typed drafts, often annotated, of his critical pieces for theatrical shows written for the New York Times. Other writings include drafts and revised versions of his articles for publications, notes and manuscripts for books and reviews, and his personal correspondence including letters written to Jean dating to the early 1940s. Jean's papers include her letters to Walter, drafts of her play Lunch Hour (originally titled Jill Came Tumbling After) and other miscellaneous productions, and articles she wrote for various magazines in the 1980s. Also included are photographs, mostly of Walter, used for publicity for his books and articles, photographs of the casts and stage settings of Jean's plays, and photographs of friends. Housed with the photographs is an autographed copy of the April 14, 1961 Time Magazine cover featuring Jean Kerr.
