Summary
Writing that she is pleased that all is settled between Dick (Griffith), himself, and the museum (i.e. the Museum of Modern Art); asking him if he has read Ezra Goodman's The fifty-year decline and fall of Hollywood, and remarking "I shudder to think of the books you will have to go through before you finish writing on films."
