Biographical Sketch
On June 18, 1972, a
Washington Post front page story
reported the previous day's break-in at the Democratic National Committee's office
in the Watergate complex in Washington, DC. Five men were arrested while attempting
to photograph documents and place bugging devices in the offices. The White House
dismissed the crime as a "third-rate burglary," and much of the nation's media soon
dropped interest in what some jokingly referred to as "the Watergate caper." But two
of the reporters who worked on that first Washington
Post story, Bob Woodward and Carl Bernstein, continued tracking down sources
and pursuing leads on what became the biggest story of twentieth-century American
politics.
Robert Woodward, born March 26, 1943, in Geneva, Illinois, was raised in nearby
Wheaton. The son of a Republican lawyer and judge, Woodward attended Yale University
on an ROTC scholarship, graduating with a BA in History and English in 1965. He then
served as a communications officer in the US Navy from 1965 to 1970. After leaving
the service, he contemplated attending law school, but then decided to seek
reporting jobs with the
Washington Post or the New York Times. Turned down for a lack of experience, he
spent a year as a reporter for the Montgomery County
Sentinel in Maryland before getting a position at the Washington Post in 1971. At the time of the Watergate break-in,
Woodward had been at the Post less than nine months
and had worked as a reporter for less than two years.
Carl Bernstein was born February 14, 1944, in Washington, DC, and raised in nearby
Silver Spring, Maryland. His parents were social activists and members of the
American Communist Party. He began working as a copy boy at the
Washington Evening Star at age sixteen, and after
finishing high school attended classes part-time at the University of Maryland. He
eventually began contributing stories at the Star and
in 1965 moved to New York City to work as a reporter at the Elizabeth Daily Journal in New Jersey. After one year at the Journal, Bernstein returned to Washington, DC, and took
a reporter position at the Washington Post.
At first the two reporters worked independently of one another. Woodward discovered
that one of the burglars, James McCord, Jr., was a former CIA employee, recently
employed as a security coordinator for the Committee for the Re-election of
President Nixon (CRP). He also tracked a phone number in one burglar's address book
to White House consultant Howard Hunt. Bernstein was able to confirm the burglar's
calls to Hunt through telephone records, and also traced a check in one burglar's
bank account to the CRP. With support and guidance from
Post editors Barry Sussman, Harry Rosenfeld, Howard Simons, and executive
editor Ben Bradlee, Woodward and Bernstein combined their efforts to further explain
the break-in, seeking information from hundreds of administration officials,
campaign workers, White House staffers, and other sources.
For several months, Woodward and Bernstein continually wrote front page stories
exposing links between Watergate and the CRP, but were unable to directly connect
the burglars to anyone close to Nixon. One of Woodward's sources, identified on May
31, 2005, as FBI Associate Director Mark Felt, provided deep background information,
on the condition that Woodward never identify, quote, or use him as a sole source of
the information. Deep Throat, as Felt was labeled by Howard Simons, confirmed the
reporters' suspicions and leads, and helped focus their investigation on the trail
of money from the burglars to the CRP to the White House. Eventually, in an October
10, 1972 story, Woodward and Bernstein were able to disclose in detail that the
Watergate break-in was part of a larger effort to sabotage Nixon's political
opponents--paid for through the CRP under the direction of some of Nixon's closest
aides.
White House Press Secretary Ron Ziegler reacted with strong criticism to the story,
questioning the methods and political motivations of the
Washington Post and the two reporters. After Nixon's re-election in
November 1972, many thought the story would die, but instead, repercussions from the
break-in continued. In January 1973, the five Watergate burglars and two former
White House employees who directed them, Howard Hunt and G. Gordon Liddy, were
convicted for the break-in. In February, the U.S. Senate formed a committee to
investigate the Nixon campaign. And in March, Watergate burglar James McCord, Jr.
informed Judge John Sirica that he and the other burglars had lied during their
trials, were pressured by the White House to withhold information, and that
high-ranking officials had known about the Watergate break-in plan.
By April 1973, the
Post, numerous other news agencies,
and the Senate committee were all focused on discovering what knowledge, if any,
Nixon had of the Watergate burglary. On April 30, due to the mounting evidence of
their personal involvement, Nixon's Chief of Staff H. R. Haldeman, Domestic Affairs
Advisor John Ehrlichman, and Attorney General Richard Kleindienst all resigned and
Presidential Counsel John Dean was fired. At a press conference the following day,
Press Secretary Ziegler apologized to Woodward, Bernstein, and the Washington Post for his previous criticism, admitting to
the validity of their stories.
In May 1973, the
Washington Post received the
Pulitzer Prize for Woodward and Bernstein's Watergate coverage. Interest in what the
two reporters had accomplished was growing, and a book offer from Simon and Schuster
had already been made. Originally planning to write a story from the burglars'
perspective, Woodward and Bernstein decided instead to tell the story of their
investigation of the break-in and the cover-up. While still covering the ongoing
Watergate story for the Post, they worked on the book
nights and weekends, eventually taking a five-week leave of absence to write full
time.
Published in June 1974,
All the President's Men was a
best-seller, receiving strong reviews and extensive media coverage. The book
revealed the existence of "Deep Throat," causing great speculation about his
identity, particularly since the Watergate story continued to unfold after the book
was published. In July 1973, the Senate investigating committee had uncovered the
existence of the taping system used by Nixon to record meetings in the Oval Office.
In February 1974, the House Judiciary Committee began impeachment hearings. And one
month before All the President's Men was released, a
federal grand jury indicted seven of Nixon's top aides in the Watergate cover-up and
informed the judge that there was enough evidence to indict Nixon, but they did not
have the legal authority to charge the President.
After the release of
All the President's Men,
Woodward and Bernstein continued covering Watergate for the Post and began making plans for a follow-up book. Soon after Nixon's
resignation on August 9, 1974, they took another leave of absence to work on what
became The Final Days. Focusing on Nixon and the
inner workings at the White House over the last 100 days of his administration,
Woodward and Bernstein found that with Nixon out of office, many high-level White
House and government personnel were willing and eager to talk to them and explain
their side of the story. They hired two research assistants, Scott Armstrong and Al
Kamen, and proceeded to interview nearly 400 people, promising them complete
anonymity since many still worked in government or had continuing connections to
Nixon or other politicians.
As they worked on the new book, production began on a movie version of
All the President's Men starring Robert Redford as
Woodward and Dustin Hoffman as Bernstein. The actors and director Alan Pakula relied
heavily upon the two reporters for their opinions and insight on the film's content
and authenticity. Opening in April 1976, the film was greatly successful and later
won four Academy Awards, including best screenplay adaptation for William Goldman.
The same month the movie opened, pre-publication excerpts from
The Final Days were released in Newsweek. Strong reactions to the excerpts, which included details
about Nixon's personal life, were often negative and highly critical of Woodward and
Bernstein. Commentators pilloried the book as an invasion of privacy and an
unnecessary attack on the already humiliated Nixon. Despite the criticism, the book
was soon a best-seller after its release in May. By then, many reviews noted that as
a whole, the book was not an attack on Nixon. Some even found it to be somewhat
sympathetic towards the former President. Still, facts and events from the book were
questioned by Nixon's friends and family, and some obvious sources denied ever
speaking with Bernstein and Woodward. Some questioned the credibility of the work
due to the lack of footnotes and named sources, even though many acknowledged that
it would have been impossible to write without the promises of anonymity.
With increasing fame and notoriety, Woodward and Bernstein had themselves become the
focus of numerous news stories. While often forced to defend their own work, they
criticized other reporters and journalism in general for simply reporting official
comments on important events without question or critical investigating. To many in
America, the two reporters were heroes who stood up against power and corruption,
and enrollment in journalism schools soared as students sought to follow the
examples set by the two role models.
Soon after finishing
The Final Days, Bernstein left
the Washington Post in 1976. He contributed articles
to Rolling Stone, the New
Republic, and Time and worked as
Washington Bureau Chief for ABC News from 1979 to 1981. From 1981 to 1984 he was a
correspondent for ABC in New York, and since 1992 has been a visiting lecturer at
New York University. In addition to his books with Woodward he has written Loyalties: A Son's Memoir (1989), His Holiness: John Paul II and the Hidden History of Our Time (1996)
with Marco Politi, and A Woman in Charge: The Life of Hillary
Rodham Clinton (2007).
Woodward continued working at
The Washington Post,
becoming assistant managing editor in 1981. He also continued writing and has
produced numerous best-sellers. In addition to his books with Bernstein he has
written The Brethren: Inside the Supreme Court (1979)
with Scott Armstrong, Wired: The Short Life of and Fast Times
of John Belushi (1984), Veil: The Secret Wars of
the CIA, 1981-1987 (1987), The Commanders
(1991), The Man Who Would be President: Dan Quayle
(1992) with David Broder and Dan Quayle, The Agenda: Inside
the Clinton White House (1994), The
Choice (1996), Shadow: Five Presidents and the Legacy
of Watergate (1999), Maestro: Greenspan's Fed and
the American Boom (2000), Bush at War
(2002), Plan of Attack (2004), and State of Denial (2006). He also co-wrote the television
movie Under Siege (1986) and mini-series The Nightmare Years (1989) with Christian Williams.

Scope and Contents
Typed and handwritten manuscripts, interview notes, galley proofs, financial records,
correspondence, audio and video tapes, clippings, research files, court documents,
government publications, photographs, and memorabilia document the Watergate
investigation and writings of Bob Woodward and Carl Bernstein. Reflected in these
materials is their work at the
Washington Post, on
their two jointly written books All the President's
Men (1974) and The Final Days (1976), as well
as the motion picture version of All the President's
Men (1976), and for Woodward's book Shadow: Five
Presidents and the Legacy of Watergate (1999).
The papers are organized in two series: I. Woodward, 1970-2001 (bulk 1972-1976) and
II. Bernstein, 1964-1996 (bulk 1972-1976). The two series reflect who possessed the
records at the time they were transferred to the Ransom Center. They do not indicate
the creator of the materials within each series. The manner in which most of the
materials were created and accumulated was highly interactive and there was much
mixing and overlap of materials between the two reporters. Items created by or sent
to Woodward are found throughout the Bernstein series and vice-versa.
Each series is further organized into subseries reflecting the manner in which
Woodward and Bernstein each maintained their own files:
- I. Woodward, 1970-2001 (bulk 1972-1976)
- A. The Washington Post and All the President's Men, 1972-1977 (4 boxes)
- B. The Final Days, 1972-1976, 1989 (27
boxes)

Two subseries, A.
The Washington Post and All the President's Men, and B. The Final Days, are found in both the Bernstein and Woodward series and
contain similar materials. The major differences between them are that the Bernstein
materials contain all manuscript drafts for All the
President's Men, and the Woodward materials contain the majority of
research documents and manuscript drafts for The Final
Days.
Other differences between the Woodward series and the Bernstein series include the
presence in Woodward's papers of materials for his book
Shadow, and copies or drafts of several works by other authors.
The Personal subseries in Woodward's papers is the smallest of the subseries and
contains materials somewhat similar to the memorabilia files in Bernstein's
Washington Post and All the
President's Men subseries. Correspondence and clippings are present in
both series, but the majority of these are found in Bernstein's papers. Incoming
correspondence, notes, and memos, excluding routine fan mail, are indexed at the end
of the finding aid. Included among the correspondents are Ben Bradlee, Tom Brokaw,
William F. Buckley, Joseph Califano, Katharine Graham, Alice Mayhew, and Dan Rather.
The bulk of the collection consists of drafts of
Washington
Post news stories, All the President's
Men, and The Final Days. Woodward and
Bernstein typed all of these drafts on the six-ply carbonless paper used by the
Washington Post at that time for news copy
drafts. The paper is specially coated to transmit typed or written marks from the
top sheet to underlying sheets without the use of traditional carbon paper. By using
this paper, Woodward and Bernstein created five copies of every typed page. One or
all six pages may contain handwritten comments and changes by Bernstein, Woodward,
their editors, and, on manuscripts for The Final
Days, from research assistants Scott Armstrong and Al Kamen. This process
created numerous versions of each section of every draft. Some of the drafts retain
all six sheets of paper still joined at a perforated edge. Others have only the top
typed sheet, or one or more of the copy sheets. Care must be taken when using any of
the sheets as inadvertent marks can still be transferred onto underlying layers.
Many of the copies are faded; preservation photocopies have been made. Some are so
faded that they cannot be read or reproduced by photocopying. In these cases the
sheets were digitally scanned and printouts made after adjusting the contrast to
best reveal the image.
Many of the book drafts were received at the Ransom Center loose in boxes without
folders. Some effort was made during cataloging to place the unidentified
manuscripts with those received in folders and identified by writer, draft version,
editing stage, chapter order, or other labeling. Throughout the collection, copies
of original file folders and headings have been retained with the materials.
In addition to the wealth of manuscript material, of great importance are hundreds
of files containing interviews conducted by telephone or in person by Bernstein and
Woodward for their news stories and books. Found in both the Woodward and Bernstein
series, the files include interviews with major Watergate figures, presidential
aides and staff, government officials and employees, congressmen, and Nixon
colleagues. Examples of some of the higher profile interviewees are Howard Baker, J.
Fred Buzhardt, John Ehrlichman, James St. Clair, Barry Goldwater, Howard Hunt,
Elliot Richardson, and Leon Jaworski.
The contents of the interview files vary greatly. Some contain a single page of
handwritten notes. Others hold numerous typed pages from multiple interviews. Some
include audio tapes of the interview and background material on the subject. Most
files contain material from a single source, but some contain information from
multiple sources regarding a particular topic or person. With the exception of
interviews conducted for Woodward's book
Shadow, all
of the interviews were conducted with the promise of complete confidentiality and
therefore remain closed for research until the death of the interview source. When a
file contains interviews from several sources, the entire file will remain closed
until all sources are deceased.
The bulk of the materials dates from 1972 to 1976. A small number of clippings and
other items from the late 1960s predate Woodward and Bernstein's work together. Some
research materials, clippings, and papers related to
Shadow date from the 1980s through 2001. Materials are in English, with a
small number of French, German, and Spanish language clippings and one French
language videotape. All videotape, audiotape, and film has been transferred to the
Ransom Center's audio/visual (AV) collection and digital copies are available for
research use. A list of these AV materials is provided in the Associated Materials
section of this finding aid. Foreign and special editions of All the President's Men and The Final
Days have likewise been transferred to the Ransom Center's library and are
cataloged separately. These books are also listed under Associated Materials.
Series Descriptions
Series I. Woodward, 1970-2001 (bulk 1972-1976) (38 boxes)
Subseries A. The Washington Post
and All the President's Men, 1972-1977 (4
boxes)
This subseries contains some of the earliest materials from Woodward and
Bernstein's Watergate Papers, much of it used for both their
Washington Post reporting and the writing of
All the President's Men.
The bulk of the subseries consists of source files and subject files
containing interviews and research conducted by Woodward and Bernstein.
Although the contents of the source files and the subject files are
often similar, maintaining the distinction between them reflects
Woodward's working methods. Source files most often contain notes from
interviews conducted while writing stories for the
Post. Subject files tend to be larger and
more often contain information about a topic or individual rather than
material from that individual. Both groups of files are arranged
alphabetically. Of note are Woodward's handwritten notes from the
arraignment of the Watergate burglars the day after the break-in and
notes from his contacts with Mark Felt. Many of the files remain closed
in accordance with Woodward and Bernstein's promises to protect their
sources' identities.
Also included with
Washington Post
materials are several Watergate related publications issued by the
Post, clippings of stories by
Woodward and Bernstein, clippings of Watergate stories from other papers
and reporters, and photo reproductions of front page Washington Post Watergate stories.
Woodward's
All the President's Men
materials contain contracts, outlines, editing notes, and page proofs
for the book. Also present are financial records, such as royalty
statements and expense accounts, dating from 1973 to 1977. These
materials cover the period during which Woodward and Bernstein were
writing All the President's Men and
The Final Days, and include personal
financial information for both reporters. Manuscript drafts for the book
are located with Bernstein's materials.
The
All the President's Men movie
materials contain Woodward's notes on discussions with Robert Redford
and several screenplay drafts annotated by Woodward and Bernstein.
Publicity materials for the movie include a 35mm film trailer and French
language videotape of the film.
Subseries B. The Final Days,
1972-1976, 1989 (27 boxes)
The Final Days subseries contains
extensive source files, research materials, and manuscript drafts from
Woodward, Bernstein, and their research assistants Scott Armstrong and
Al Kaman. As in files for All the President's
Men, The Final Days source files
contain interview notes and background information, and some of the
files remain closed for research. Many of the files contain handwritten
interview notes and typed summaries made from the notes. Some files
include audio tapes of the interview. The interviews were conducted by
Woodward, Bernstein, Armstrong, or Kaman individually, or by two or more
of them together. Some interviews took place over the telephone. Others
were quite extensive and took several meetings to complete.
Woodward's research materials for
The Final
Days include copies of Senate and House Committee proceedings,
many with Woodward and Armstrong's annotations. Also included are copies
of court documents from Watergate related proceedings, press releases
from the White House, Congress, the Watergate Special Prosecution Force,
and The Committee to Re-elect the President, published compilations of
presidential documents, and photocopies of presidential phone logs and
diaries.
Several boxes of material trace the coverage of Watergate by the
national media. These files contain clippings and articles from
journalists such as Lou Cannon, William Safire, and David Wise, and
magazines such as
Time and Newsweek. Other files, created by Al Kaman,
contain typed chronologies of Watergate news coverage.
Typed, carbon copy, and photocopied manuscripts for the book include
early and intermediate drafts. Some drafts are identified as Woodward's
working copies and some as Bernstein's working copies; others are not
identified as either Woodward's or Bernstein's. As with
All the President's Men, the drafts were
typed on six-layered carbon paper, creating numerous copies of each
draft. Many contain handwritten corrections or notes from the authors,
their assistants, or their editor at Simon and Schuster, Alice Mayhew.
As drafts moved back and forth between the parties, sections became
separated or mixed and portions of one draft may be split between
Woodward's files and Bernstein's files.
The Final Days was written in two parts
covering "22 areas of inquiry" as stated in the authors' foreword. Part
I contained 20 chapters examining various periods, events, and
individuals from April 1973 to July 1974. Part II covered the period of
July 24 to August 9. As published, the chapters in Part I were untitled,
but Woodward and Bernstein used topical headings for each section as
they worked. As sections of the book developed and text was moved from
one draft to the next, headings changed or overlapped. Drafts for Part I
of the book are labeled with their original working headings in the
container list. They are roughly in the order that arrived at the Ransom
Center and do not exactly correspond to the final arrangement of the
chapters in the published book. Drafts for Part II of the book are
headed by date and are in chronological order as in Part II of the
published book.
Other materials include photographs used in the book, galley proofs with
Woodward's handwritten corrections, copies of the book's
Newsweek excerpts, and a first edition copy
of the book with text marked by Woodward.
Also in the subseries are photocopies and notes related to Woodward's
research on Nixon and Mark Felt in the 1980s and 1990s.
Subseries C. Shadow, 1989,
1997-2001 (3 boxes)
Subseries C. contains materials related to the first chapter of
Woodward's 1999 book
Shadow: Five Presidents and
the Legacy of Watergate. The chapter focused on Gerald
Ford's pardon of Nixon is represented by transcriptions of taped
interviews that Woodward conducted with Gerald Ford and individuals who
served under Ford or Nixon. Unlike the interviews for All the President's Men and The Final Days, these interviews were
conducted on the record and all files are open for research. Included
are interviews with high-level Nixon and Ford officials such as James
Schlesinger and Alexander Haig. Also present are photocopies of
presidential papers from the Ford Library and the National Archives,
research notes and outlines, clippings of news stories about the pardon,
and computer printout drafts of the chapter.
The small amount of correspondence includes a photocopy of a letter from
Ford to Woodward expressing appreciation for the book, and a letter from
Frank Fox accompanying several articles by Fox on Ford and Nixon. Notes
and comments from Woodward's research assistant Jeff Glasser are found
throughout the materials.
In addition to the
Shadow materials are
items related to a Ford article written by Woodward soon after finishing
Shadow. Created for a book on the
winners of the John F. Kennedy Library Foundation's Profile in Courage
Award, the piece is documented with one folder of computer printout
drafts, correspondence, and publicity materials for the Kennedy Library
and the award.
Subseries D. Clippings, 1973-1976, 1982 (2 boxes)
The Clippings subseries contains reviews, editorials, and articles from
newspapers, magazines, and wire services. They are grouped topically for
All the President's Men (book),
All the President's Men (movie), and
The Final Days. There is also a
grouping for "1976" which contains clippings on both the movie and
The Final Days, and a grouping of
interviews and stories about Woodward and Bernstein in general.
Most of the clippings are from the United States with a small number
related to
The Final Days from the United
Kingdom. The materials are very similar to those in the Clippings
subseries in the Bernstein series, but are not as extensive.
Subseries E. Personal, 1970-1999 (.5 box)
Woodward's personal materials contain mementos of his Watergate reporting
for the
Washington Post and books he
co-authored with Bernstein. The bulk of the materials date from 1970 to
1976, with a few items dating as late as 1999.
Two folders of handwritten and typed speech notes form the bulk of the
subseries. Accompanying these notes are photographs and programs from
various speeches and appearances, including photos from a 1976
Meet the Press television broadcast
featuring Woodward and Bernstein. Other items include letters in
response to applications Woodward submitted at the Washington Post and the New York Times in the early 1970s, press
badges from 1974 to 1981, and personal letters from friends and
colleagues. Notable among these are letters from Dan Rather, Judge John
Sirica, and a 1974 three page letter addressed to "Bob and Carl" from
Katharine Graham praising their efforts and achievements over the
previous two years.
Also found in the Personal material is biographical information for
Woodward and others at the
Washington
Post.
Subseries F. Works by Others, 1976, undated (2 boxes)
The Works by Others subseries contains drafts or copies of Watergate
related monographs sent to or copied by Woodward. The bulk consists of
two manuscript drafts of James Doyle's
Not Above
the Law (1976) sent by Doyle for Woodward's review. Philadelphia Inquirer editorial cartoonist
Tony Auth also sought Woodward's input for his book Behind the Lines (1977), sending copies of
cartoons he planned to use.
Photocopied outlines and drafts for Charles Colson's
Born Again (1976) and H. R. Haldeman's
The Haldeman Diaries: Inside the Nixon White
House (1994) were sent to Woodward by publishers or agents.
An incomplete photocopy of Haldeman's book The
Ends of Power (1978) contains Woodward's handwritten
comments and notes.
Series II. Bernstein, 1964-1996 (bulk 1972-1976) (36
boxes)
Subseries A. The Washington Post
and All the President's Men, 1964,
1972-1977 (12 boxes)
This subseries contains source files and subject files similar to those
in Woodward's
Washington Post and All the President's Men materials, and like
Woodward's, many of the files remain closed for research to protect the
confidentiality of the sources. Files open for research include
interviews notes with Howard Baker and John Ehrlichman and copies of
telephone records for Howard Hunt and Bernard Barker. Bernstein's Washington Post clippings are more extensive
than Woodward's and include a 1968 story by Bernstein. In addition,
Bernstein's materials include typed and carbon drafts of some of his
Post stories written with Woodward
and a typed memo from Bernstein to Washington
Post national editor Dick Harwood criticizing a Post Watergate story and detailing how
Bernstein believed Watergate coverage should be pursued.
The creation of
All the President's Men
is well documented with multiple copies of heavily annotated typescripts
and carbon drafts, including fragments of two early versions focusing on
the burglars. Included are galley proofs with Bernstein's handwritten
corrections, and materials relating to excerpts of the book that
appeared in Playboy.
Other papers related to the book include Simon and Schuster promotional
materials and memorabilia sent to or collected by Bernstein such as
brochures and pamphlets from speaking engagements, anti-Nixon bumper
stickers and cartoons, and letters sent to Bernstein's father, Al
Bernstein, commenting on Carl's achievements.
Documents related to the movie version of
All the
President's Men include screenplay typescripts, shooting
schedules, promotional material, and a letter to Robert Redford from
Bernstein and Woodward outlining their thoughts on the film and
recommendations for minor changes.
Subseries B. The Final Days,
1972-1976 (13 boxes)
Bernstein's
Final Days papers contain
early drafts similar to those in the Woodward Final Days subseries, although in lesser amounts. The early
drafts include working files from both Bernstein and Woodward, with many
of Woodward's files containing extensive input from research assistant
Scott Armstrong. One file included the notation "Woodward rewrite of
Armstrong rewrite of Woodward original." As with their other
manuscripts, Bernstein and Woodward's comments are found throughout each
other's drafts.
Arrangement of this subseries is the same as in Woodward's, with
topically headed drafts of sections used in Part I of the book followed
by chronologically arranged sections used in Part II. None of
Bernstein's
Final Days source files are
currently open for research. Research materials consist of one typed
chronology of Watergate news stories similar to those located in the
Woodward Final Days subseries
Unique to Bernstein's subseries are heavily edited photocopies of
intermediate drafts and a copy-edited final draft. Also specific to
Bernstein's files are his extensive handwritten preliminary notes,
outlines, and comments on the book's development, as well as several
drafts of acknowledgements, forewords, and other front matter used in
the book.
Other materials include galley proofs with Bernstein's corrections,
copies of the
Newsweek book excerpts, and
a small amount of correspondence mostly related to reviews and sales
figures.
Subseries C. Correspondence, 1973-1976 (5 boxes)
The Correspondence subseries contains letters sent to Woodward and
Bernstein at the
Washington Post from
1973 to 1976. The bulk of the material is fan mail consisting of
requests for photographs or autographs, invitations to speak to groups
or attend functions, and suggestions of potential stories in need of
investigation. Included are letters praising their work at the Post, their books, and their movie, as well
as letters critical of their works, particularly The Final Days.
In addition to the fan mail are letters and telegrams from coworkers and
fellow journalists such as Tom Brokaw. Also of note is a copy of the
agreement between Bernstein, Woodward, and the
Washington Post for the writing of The Final Days.
Woodward and Bernstein were assisted with their correspondence by Laura
Quirk. A
Post employee, Quirk gathered
the letters in batches and sent them to either Woodward or Bernstein,
who then forwarded the correspondence to the other after review. This
system caused a great deal of overlap in dates among the files,
particularly during 1976 when they received a large amount of mail in
response to the release of The Final Days
and the movie All the President's Men.
There are numerous notes and comments written between Woodward,
Bernstein, and Quirk at the tops of letters and on the file folders
containing them, including drafts of replies. Several folders of mail
dating from 1974 to 1976 include carbons of typed responses along with
the incoming letters, but the bulk of the correspondence files contain
incoming letters only. The folders of correspondence were received at
the Ransom Center in no particular order. During processing they were
grouped according to notations written by Quirk on the front of the file
folders: "General," "Carl," "Done," and "File." Letters are in rough
chronological order within these headings.
Other correspondence is located with Bernstein's
All the President's Men memorabilia, Woodward's personal
materials, and with promotional materials and clippings for both their
books and the movie. All incoming correspondence, other than routine fan
mail, is indexed at the end of the finding aid. Included in the index
are notes and memos from Washington Post
and Simon and Schuster personnel.
Subseries D. Clippings and Videos, 1972-1979, 1996 (5
boxes)
The Clippings and Videos subseries consists primarily of reviews and
commentary on the book and movie versions of
All
the President's Men and on The Final
Days. Sources include newspapers, magazines, press releases,
publishers' catalogs, and printed advertisements. Many of the clippings
were collected by Simon and Schuster or clipping services and include
material from the United Kingdom, France, and a small number of Spanish
and German language clippings. Some of the clippings sent by individuals
include letters or written commentary. Clippings related to The Final Days document the strong criticism
directed at Bernstein and Woodward concerning their methods and motives.
Of note is a press release from Nixon friend and supporter Rabbi Baruch
Korff detailing Korff's assessment of numerous errors and false claims in
The Final Days. Bernstein's
handwritten comments on the release refute or explain each of Korff's
claims.
Clippings under the heading "Bernstein and Woodward/Journalism" include
articles on the two reporters, coverage of their speeches and
appearances, and stories on journalism in general. Included is a
scrapbook created by Bernstein's mother and a typed carbon draft of a
Washington Post story by Robert
Kaiser on Bernstein leaving the Post.
Several articles document Bernstein's activities after his departure,
including one dated 1992. Also included is a 1973 Quill article written by Bernstein that details how he and
Woodward pursued the Watergate story.
Materials under "Nixon/Watergate" include numerous magazine articles as
well as videotapes of a 1987 ABC News program and a 1992 CBS News
program. Similar clippings are located in the Clippings subseries of
Woodward's papers, but in lesser amounts.
