Gail, You might be able to get contact information from PBS. I see they had a title released on the PBS label in 2009.
Good Luck! Jay Sonin ----- Original Message ----- From: Gail Fedak To: videolib Sent: Tuesday, September 28, 2010 3:21 PM Subject: [Videolib] American Production Company and John H. Williams One of our faculty wants us to purchase an American Playhouse episode -True West. All we have found available are used VHS tapes. I don't mind purchasing one of the VHS tapes in this case since the production does not seem to be available on DVD, but I would like to contact the producer(s) to ask about permission to covert to DVD. WorldCat lists the corporate authors as Academy Home Entertainment and Program Development Company, Theatrical Division. John H. Williams and Howard K. Grossman are listed as producers. I'm not finding contact information on any of them. Does anyone know whether this is a dead end search or have contact information for either the companies, Mr. Williams or Mr. Grossman?
