Papers of Fred Coe, a producer and director in the media of theater, television, and
film. Coe was involved with television from its early years, and became a well-known and
influential producer of television drama, especially live broadcasts. The papers document
Fred Coe's career and include a small amount of personal and biographical material;
correspondence; production papers; scripts; publicity and reviews; and other papers. More
than half of the collection relates to television, including files from the series Goodyear Television Playhouse, Philco Television Playhouse, Playhouse 90, Playwrights '56, Producer's Showcase, and Adams Chronicles. Also documented are the play
Wait Until Dark, both the play and the
film versions of A Thousand Clowns and
The Miracle Worker, and other works both
produced and unproduced. Recordings of the radio detective series Johnny Dollar, in which Coe was not involved, and material from
a Robert Goldman television program on composer Norman Dello Joio are also included. Films,
kinescopes, and videotapes document Coe's television and feature film work.
