1985-1986. An 11-page author questionnaire submitted by Wolitzer in advance of the publication of her second novel, Hidden Pictures (here briefly called Home Fires before the title is crossed out). "Signed" by the author (as in, Wolitzer has twice printed her name). Her answers are brief, but she supplies demographic information; answers where the idea for the book originated ("From the imagination"); imagines its target market ("People who read serious fiction, plus a feminist/gay audience as well, although I'm sure the two may overlap"); and the special groups that may be interested ("Any gay rights or women's org. I don't know how to get information about them"). She provides a full-page list of notables who should receive galleys. The only correspondence included is a typed note signed by the writer Hilma Wolitzer, Meg's mother, saying how very proud she is of her daughter and that she would like to provide a quote, but "it wouldn't be quite kosher." Included are five original author photos (one by Thomas Victor; four by Jerry Bauer); two contact sheets of photos by Bauer; two printed publicity photos of Wolitzer; and a 1986 press release for Hidden Pictures.
