Addition to the Loring Mandel Papers, 1955-2006. Most of the materials document the two-part project "Conspiracy/Complicity," the first part a dramatized reconstruction of the ministerial conference at Grosse Wannsee, January 20, 1942, which set the administrative parameters of the "Final Solution" to the Jewish problem, and the second on the channels whereby news of the "Final Solution" filtered to the Allies and their response, especially the inter-Allied conference on the refugee problem held in Bermuda in April 1943. The first part was produced by the BBC and HBO as Conspiracy, written by Loring Mandel, directed by Frank Pierson, and broadcast in the U.S. by ABC on May 19, 2001; the second is still unproduced. Materials consist of script files and research files for both parts, and production files, clippings of reviews, and documentation of awards for the first (Conspiracy). Smaller amounts of materials document other projects, including Black Power (1968), China Diary (1986), a projected program about racketeering in the Fulton Fish Market, New York City, Love Songs (1985), a projected television dramatization of David Halberstam's 1986 book The Reckoning, a projected television program about James Gordon Williams (a U.S. businessman arrested on money laundering charges in Ecuador in 1998), and a proposed remake of Gore Vidal's The Best Man. One scrapbook documents Mandel's career 1955-1962. Includes 40 photographs in Box 19, Folder 6.
