{"value"=>"<p>This series contains letters and telegrams from Hayes’s friends and colleagues, including a few letters and notes from her immediate family. Correspondents include Brooks Atkinson, Stephen Vincent Benet, Carrie Chapman Catt, Mamie Eisenhower, Mary Martin, Paul Muni, Eleanor Roosevelt, Kim Stanley and Thorton Wilder. Of particular note is the correspondence from actor William Gillette and screenwriter and director Nunnally Johnson. Gillette’s handwritten correspondence, written in an idiosyncratic, poetic style, reveals him to be a highly creative, emotional personality and a somewhat unusual paternal figure in Hayes’s life. The Nunnally Johnson correspondence provides a witty window into Hollywood, containing anecdotes about casting sessions, writing, and producing films.</p>"}
