with Bill Moyers, a 1971 "Today" interview, appearances on all of the major networks discussing the impending 1972 presidential
election, a 1973 interview with Rusk on the death of Lyndon B. Johnson, and a 1974 interview with William F. Buckley. Additional

a broad range of subjects, but the bulk of the tapes date from 1983 to 1989 and roughly coincide with Rusk's retirement from
teaching at the University of Georgia. The videotapes range in date from a copy of a March 1962 profile of Dean Rusk by WBTV-TV
in Charlotte , North Carolina to the 1996 dedication of the University of Georgia 's Dean Rusk Hall. Included among the videotapes
is a copy of the CBS News coverage of the Cuban Missile Crisis, Rusk's 1984 deposition in the Westmoreland v. CBS libel case,
a fourteen-tape unedited interview with Dean Rusk conducted in 1985 by Edwin Newman, a thirty-minute documentary on Rusk produced
by the University of Georgia in 1988 called "Conversations with Great Georgians: Dean Rusk," a multi-part series entitled
"The United Nations: Issues of Peace and Conflict" that covers the 1989 Report of the Former Ambassadors to the United Nations,
a three-part interview with Rusk conducted by Kenneth Harris for a BBC series entitled "The Twentieth Century Remembered,"
as well as several other television appearances and interviews that reflect back on Rusk's tenure as secretary of state during
the Kennedy and Johnson administrations and that touch on the topics of the Cuban Missile Crisis, Vietnam, and the Cold War.
Also included in the collection is a silent 16mm home movie from 1945 depicting then Colonel Rusk playing tennis at the palace
of the viceroy (now the residence of the President of India) with friends Colonel Currie, Captain Swain, Lieutenant Plager,
and other unidentified persons.
