A posting this weekend on the Cast Rec list of this You Tube which was made in 2007 but posted this past July might interest some of you. Per Jane Klain -of the Paley Center - most of the FILMS discussed have been digitized but nothing about the recordings. When ARSC was in LA a few years ago I had the pleasure of spending 6 hours or so at Miles's house. I was able to take a few stills but he requested that I not take video. I remember that Miles gave a presentation at one of the early ARSC Conferences in the 70s and that talk stayed in my mind for years. The collection sits there waiting for some big DONOR to build a "physical museum" to store the collection. That's the only way Miles says he will move it. The IAM is a 501(c)(3) but Miles is President and CEO. _?
