CHRONOLOGY & BIBLIOGRAPHY OF AYN RAND'S LIFE & WORKS ----------------------------------------------------- Rev. Feb. 2009 Compiled by Todd H. Goldberg, M.D. This list was compiled during >20 years of study of the philosophy & literature of Objectivism. To the best of my knowledge, my list of Rand's printed published works is is complete and accurate, but I have not attempted to thoroughly track all of the many other articles, audiovisual materials, etc. about Rand, Objectivism, and related topics. I am not an authorized spokesperson for Objectivism or any group. This work is my sole and full responsibility and will be updated periodically. **This is the only authorized version of this work. This file has been officially posted only on my own web site, formerly http://members.aol.com/TGoldberg which along with all AOL hometown sites is now offline, I am deciding about another web host but for now using www.geocities.com/tgoldberg.

"Ayn Rand on Campus" radio series (WKCR, Columbia University, New York, 1962 - 1966) (19 of these topics were printed in "Ayn Rand Interviewed" (F-36); unknown how many total interviews exist or if this is all).

Finally , new movie/TV versions of "The Fountainhead" and "Atlas Shrugged" are reportedly being planned. ____________________________________________________________ APPENDIX F: BOOKS ABOUT AYN RAND AND OBJECTIVISM (DISCLAIMER: I believe it to be useful for bibliographic/ historical/informational purposes to list all of the major books I have heard of by other authors which primarily concern Ayn Rand and Objectivism. This is not necessarily a complete, representative, or up to date list, nor am I attempting to track or list privately circulated pamphlets, magazine articles, or books or chapters which are only partially about Ayn Rand or Objectivism. This would be virtually impossible as there are innumerable references to Ayn Rand in the media from time to time. Also I must make it very clear that although these works may contain useful or interesting information or discussions, I have not read or seen them all myself, they vary greatly in approach from positive and worthwhile to irrational and offensive, and NO ENDORSEMENT OR APPROVAL SHOULD BE PRESUMED!) 1) Branden, Barbara and Branden, Nathaniel.
