NORMAN COUSINS
Norman Cousins signed this letter, typed on UCLA letterhead, to an autograph hunter in1982, four years after he left Saturday Review.
Typed letter signed "Norman Cousins" in blue ink. 1 page, 5½x8½, on letterhead of the Department of Psychiatry and Biobehavioral Sciences at the University of California, Los Angeles. July 6, 1982. Addressed to Marcy Parman, Oklahoma City, Oklahoma. In full: "Dear March, Many thanks for your note and request to have an autograph and photograph. I can oblige you with the former but, alas, I regret that I do not have any photographs to send. Every good wise, Norman Cousins". Cousins (1915-1990) was editor of the Saturday Review for thirty years (1942-1978), transforming it from a struggling journal to an influential publication with 600,000 subscribers. He wrote dozens of books and hundreds of essays and editorials. President of the United World Federalists and co-founder of SANE (National Committee for a Sane Nuclear Policy), Cousins crusaded tirelessly to reign in the nuclear arms race and for international peace and social justice. Cousins also believed strongly in the importance of a positive mental attitude in combating disease, a view he promoted in his best-selling book Anatomy of an Illness (1979). President Kennedy thanked Cousins publicly for his role in promoting the test ban treaty (1963), and Pope John XXIII awarded him his personal medallion. After retiring from Saturday Review, Cousins taught medical ethics at UCLA. Adhesive residue along left edge. Folded twice and unfolded. Otherwise in fine condition.
