Norman Mailer Collection, 1947-2007 : An Inventory

http://id.lib.harvard.edu/ead/hfa00006/catalog

This collection contains materials related specifically to the filmmaking career of Norman Mailer (1922 – 2007). In addition to projection prints and some access copies, a majority of the collection consists of pre-print materials, including workprint, original camera rolls, and audio recordings. This includes 16mm and 35mm projection prints and original sound and picture elements from Mailer’s three underground films of the 1960s (Wild 90, Beyond the Law and Maidstone), a 35mm projection print accompanied by sound and picture elements from Mailer’s 1971 re-edit of Beyond the Law, Beyond the Law (Blue), Mailer’s personal 35mm projection print of Tough Guys Don’t Dance (1987) and the internegative of Mailer’s first film from 1947, restored in 2008 by The Harvard Film Archive and The Harry Ransom Center through a grant from the National Film Preservation Board. Finally, a 16mm projection print of D.A. Pennebaker and Chris Hegedus’ Town Bloody Hall was deposited into this collection in March 2008 by Mailer’s archivist J. Michael Lennon. Providing further context, digital copies of several of Mailer’s most significant television appearances have been compiled and added to this collection by Michael Chaiken, Film and Video Archivist for the Norman Mailer Estate.
