Mailer covers the August Republican Convention and publishes his account in the 12 October New Republic.
He and Lawrence Schiller begin six months of research in the KGB archives in Minsk (then a part of the Soviet Union, now Belarus) on Lee Harvey Oswald, who lived there in 1961–62. This research will become the basis of Oswald's Tale: An American Mystery (95.16).
Andrew Wylie becomes Mailer’s literary agent after the death of Scott Meredith.
