The Honorable William J. Casey
Director of Central Intelligence
Washington, D.C. 20505
For the past year or so I have been working on a television
series, "Above and Beyond the Call of Duty."
It is something that is very close to the President's heart,
(note enclosed.) Unfortunately, it is on hold right now.
In any event, the producer working on the project, A.C. Lyles
is one of the Presidents oldest friends. He is a dedicated
patriot and has been most helpful to the First Family.
Recently he contacted me about a positive motion picture on. the
CIA to be produced by MGM.
Without qualification, I recommend Mr. Lyles and I suggest a
key member of your staff explore possibilities on such a project.
Mr. Lyles address and number are:
Mr. A.C. Lyles
MGM
10202 West Washington Blvd.
Culver City, CA 90230
(213) 558-5432
Best regards Bill.
Sincerely,
Joseph R. Holmes
Director, White House TV,
Film and Radio Services
