Letter from Lillian Gish, New York, New York, to Edward Wagenknecht, 1950 March 27 : typescript signed.

Thanking him for sending her a letter including a letter from (the television producer) George Crothers; informing him that she has "signed with some young agents who are handling Mary Pickford and Douglas Fairbanks" out of friendship because they asked her, that she wasn't thinking at the time about th possibilities of television and radio, and that she will discuss the matter with them and get back to him; warning him to prepare for a negative reaction to his program, as that has been the case with every program that has gone on the air unless it was "music or nonsense", and pointing out that the program "Information please" "had a dreadful struggle to sell its original self"; remarking that she believes television will "change the world just as movies and radio have" and that "we are bound to judge character more and more by the looks of people."
