Summary
Barry Hyams (1911-1989) was an American theater producer and press representative who publicized over 40 Broadway productions throughout the course of his career. His production work was limited to Off-Broadway pieces associated with Rooftop Productions. Hyams was the head of publicity for the Lincoln Center Repertory Company during the 1960s, and the editor of Theatre: The Annual of the Repertory Theatre of Lincoln Center. The Barry Hyams papers date from 1947 to 1963 and document Hyams' work as a press representative for Broadway. The collection contains publicity files and scrapbooks for over 30 Broadway productions, many of which were produced by Robert Whitehead and the Producers Theatre. This collection is rich with material demonstrating the nature of Broadway press relations. The collection holds correspondence; photographs; press releases; drafts of stories for magazines and newspapers; scripts for radio and television announcements; programs; clippings; advertisement schedules for print, radio, and television; and proofs for advertisements and programs.
