BOX 37-38 Sexually Speaking Production Files, 1977-1990
The Sexually Speaking Production Files document several behind-the-scenes aspects of Westheimer's WYNY-FM (NBC) radio show and her media career, largely focused on the period 1982-1985. Prominent in the series are weekly show notes from Sexually Speaking producers (1982-1983) as well as promotional material from both WYNY and NBC Radio Entertainment. Also included are audience questions collected during an April 1982 appearance on Late Night with David Letterman on NBC Television. A few folders of material relate to other aspects of Westheimer's media career in the 1980s, including promotional material for her 1985 board game, Dr. Ruth's Game of Good Sex.
Material types include press releases and publicity packets, show notes and schedules, memoranda and letters, and forms.
