    Margaret Cousins: An Inventory of Her Papers at the Harry Ransom Humanities Research Center Descriptive Summary Creator Cousins, Margaret, 1905- Title Margaret Cousins Papers Dates: 1921-73 Extent 35 boxes (14.5 linear feet) Abstract: The papers of Texas writer and editor Margaret Cousins include correspondence and manuscripts reflecting her career, particularly as contributor to women's magazines, as editor of Lyndon Johnson's memoir, and as senior editor at Doubleday Publishing Company. RLIN Record # TXRC91-A12 Language English. Access Open for Research Administrative Information Acquisition Gift, 1973 Processed by Donald Firsching, Kendra Trachta, Miriam Wilde, 1990. Repository: Harry Ransom Humanities Research Center, University of Texas at Austin Cousins, Margaret, 1905- Biographical Sketch Born in Munday, Knox County, Texas, on January 26, 1905, Margaret Cousins was the first child of Walter Henry and Sue Margaret Reeves Cousins. Largely through the influence of her father, Margaret displayed an interest in pursuing a literary career at a young age. Upon graduating from Bryan Street High School in Dallas, Texas, in 1922, Cousins entered the University of Texas at Austin with a major in English literature. When Cousins left the university in 1926, she found employment as an apprentice on her father's Southern Pharmaceutical Journal in Dallas, advancing to associate editor in 1930 and editor in 1935. Cousins moved to New York City in 1937 to work as assistant editor of the Pictorial Review. When the Pictorial Review ceased publication in 1939, she began work as a copy writer in the promotional department of Hearst Magazines, Inc. Over the next few years she read manuscripts on a free-lance basis and wrote fashion captions for Heart's Good Housekeeping, to which she had been a contributor as early as 1930, when her poem “Indian Summer” appeared in the November issue.

  • GIRL with a CAMERA a Novel of Margaret Bourke-White
    GIRL WITH A CAMERA A Novel of Margaret Bourke-White, Photographer Commented [CY1]: Add Photographer? By Carolyn Meyer Carolyn Meyer 100 Gold Avenue SW #602 Albuquerque, NM 87102 505-362-6201 [email protected] 2 GIRL WITH A CAMERA Sometime after midnight, a thump—loud and jarring. A torpedo slams into the side of our ship, flinging me out of my bunk. The ship is transporting thousands of troops and hundreds of nurses. It is December 1942, and our country is at war. I am Margaret Bourke-White, the only woman photographer covering this war. The U.S. Army Air Forces has handed me a plum assignment: photographing an Allied attack on the Germans. I wanted to fly in one of our B-17 bombers, but the top brass ordered me to travel instead in the flagship of a huge convoy, headed from England through the Straits of Gibraltar towards the coast of North Africa. It would be safer than flying, the officers argued. As it turns out, they were dead wrong. Beneath the surface of the Mediterranean, German submarines glide, silent and lethal, stalking their prey. One of their torpedoes has found its mark. I grab my camera bag and one camera, leaving everything else behind, and race to the bridge. I hear the order blare: Abandon ship! Abandon ship! There is not enough light and not enough time to take photographs. I head for Lifeboat No. 12 and board with the others assigned to it, mostly nurses. We’ve drilled for it over and over, but this is not a drill.

  • Notes About This Report
    NRS Estimates of Average Issue Readership for latest 12 & 6 month periods Ending June 200 Media Release September 19th, 2005 For the first time, NRS is producing a set data for journalists and media commentators to help them identify and quantify changes in the survey’s readership estimates. These tables will now be updated every quarter, and will be available via email or via the NRS website (in the subscribers-only section) at www.nrs.co.uk. Notes About This Report This report shows NRS Average Issue Readership estimates sorted by publication group (daily newspapers, Sunday newspapers, general weekly magazines etc.) for two data periods, 12 months and 6 months. Virtually all publications are reported on the 12-month base*, but only those with a sufficient sample size are reported on the 6-month base. The first column is the estimate (in 000s) for the most recent data period, the second column the estimate for the equivalent period a year ago. The third and fourth columns show the difference in the estimates between those periods, expressed in 000s and as a plus or minus percentage change. It is important to note that – as with any other sample-based survey - NRS estimates are subject to sampling variation. If two independent samples of the population are interviewed – which is what NRS is doing each year – the estimates obtained from these samples may be different, but if the differences are relatively small, they may be due simply to sampling variation. Therefore, when making any period-on-period comparison, it is important to express it as a change in the readership estimate, rather than a change in the actual readership.
