The Richard B. Russell, Jr. Collection contains 465 pieces of audiovisual material. Although Russell was not known for extensive
media appearances, early on he did make use of radio. These appearances, which began on radio in 1930, include not only campaign
related activities but also many talk shows, award presentations, Senate Recording Studio releases (view playlist of digitized
Senate Recording Studio films), news conferences, and turning points in Russell's career. In addition, Russell was often sent
material of interest in audiovisual form by constituents and political associates. The most comprehensive of these materials,
WSB-TV's "Richard B. Russell: Georgia Giant," contains numerous hours of interviews (edited and unedited) with Russell and
several historical background films that went into the making of the 3-hour documentary. Digitized audiovisual materials from
this collection are available for viewing on the Russell Library Audiovisual account on YouTube.
