The National Comedy Center in Jamestown announced Tuesday that it will be the permanent home of an extensive archive from the groundbreaking sketch comedy series "In Living Color."
The United States' official cultural institution dedicated to the art form of comedy said the archive was donated by the series' co-creator and producer Tamara Rawitt.
The comprehensive collection of scripts, creative materials and artifacts illuminates the development, production process and censorship battles surrounding the cutting-edge series, which helped put the fledgling Fox network on the map in 1990.
In a statement, Rawitt said she was "thrilled to donate this one-of-a-kind "In Living Color" collection to the National Comedy Center, where it will live to tell the story of the show's creation."
