been fantastic. They learned of our need to make our interviews more
accessible and stepped up to make it happen. This relationship is a
perfect marriage of irreplaceable content and one of the most powerful
delivery systems in the world."
Today, the first 75 of the 284 historic films (which equals to about
240 viewing hours) can be watched on Google Video at
https://video.google.com. The collection includes a virtual "who's
who" from the past 75 years of television. The comprehensive list of
actors, producers, show creators, writers, artists, journalists and
