The Brown Media Archives at UGA preserves an episode of The Georgia Traveler where Andy Johnston interviews owner Hoyt Dooley inside the Madison Theater, including the projection booth, just after it had shut its doors in the 1970s. Hoyt had worked there since 1942. Watch here: https://bmac.libs.uga.edu/index.php/Detail/objects/473091
