Howard K. Smith types a letter to a fan.
Typed Letter signed: "Howard K. Smith", 7x10½. Washington, D. C., 1963 January 21. On personal letterhead form American Broadcasting Company. In full: "A NOTE OF THANKS I am sorry that the large volume of mail in response to my program of November 11 has delayed this reply. I want to thank you for your thoughtfulness in taking the time to write. Your encouraging words were very much appreciated. Sincerely yours," Respected reporter and anchorman Howard K. Smith (1914-2002) was Chief European Correspondent for CBS News (1946-1957) and Washington Correspondent for CBS (1957-1961). In 1960, he moderated the first debate between presidential candidates John F. Kennedy and Richard M. Nixon. From 1961-1975, Smith was a reporter and anchor at ABC (radio and TV), retiring from the network in 1979. He was the first major newsman to call for President Nixon's resignation. Smith, who appeared as himself or a newscaster in several films, including The Candidate (1972), Nashville (1975) and Close Encounters of the Third Kind (1977), also published several books, including his autobiography, Events Leading Up To My Death: The Life of a Twentieth-Century Reporter (1996).
