The Last Newsreel (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9798572875225)

Much of American history of the Sixties and Seventies was captured through the lens of ABC Network's top documentary filmmaker, Ralph C. Mayher. From the bottom of the ocean to the air above Vietnam, from the battle of Wounded Knee to the hippie Mecca of Haight-Ashbury, from the Men in Black to the Mob and from California to Cuba, Mayher and his camera and crew were there bringing the news of the world into our living room television sets. He filmed and got to know personally many of the men and women who fashioned those years, including Robert Kennedy, Russell Means and Dennis Banks, Richard Burton and Elizabeth Taylor, Richard and Pat Nixon, Reagan, Groucho Marx, Lenny Bruce, General Curtis LeMay and George C. Scott. His story is our story, now told through the historical lens of the man who was on the scene to record on film the breaking news stories of the era.
