Sheldon to give UCLA archives

Writer Sidney Sheldon, who won an Academy Award for “The Bachelor and the Bobby-Soxer,” a Tony Award for “Redhead” and then went on to become a bestselling novelist (“The Other Side of Midnight,” “Rage of Angels”), announced Tuesday that he is donating his literary archives to the UCLA Library.

The material includes notes, correspondence and manuscripts from throughout his career, which includes the creation of the TV series “The Patty Duke Show,” “I Dream of Jeannie” and “Hart to Hart.”
