Historical Note

This sub-series contains Margulies' files for the lengthy pre-production period of an untitled miniseries that was to tell the story of Akenhaten and Nefertiti. The miniseries, whose script was written by Carmen Culver, was to be filmed in various places in the Middle East, but never made it out of pre-production due to its expensive budget.
