Paul Wynne Journal collection

The Paul Wynne Journal collection contains master and composite video tapes of Paul Wynne's Journal, a serial news report originally broadcast by KGO-TV, San Francisco. Episodes of "The Journal" featured Wynne's observations on the struggles he and others living with AIDS faced. The program was well received critically for its comically grim, yet poignant portrayal of the disease. Also included in this collection are letters that Wynne received in the wake of airing the program, as well as other professional work Wynne completed as a newscaster.

The journal has been digitized and can be viewed on the Willamette University Archives website.
