Created by the Institute of Latin American Studies, the Latin American Review radio program was broadcast as part of the Longhorn Radio Network. Covering all of Latin America and the Caribbean, the program aired from 1973 to 1984. The program was primarily diveded into two segments, a news segment, dealing with reports from different parts of Latin America, and an interview segment, in which an individual or small group was interviewed. A diverse number of topics were covered including human rights abuses, economic conditions, music, popular culture, and the history and politics of the region. Originally airing as the Latin American Press Review the program had its title changed in 1976 to Latin American Review.

The audio recordings found in this collection are organized according audio format. The first series is composed of reel-to-reel tape recordings. This is followed by a listing of compact audio cassettes. Listed chronologicaly, each entery in general contains the following infomation: program number; program contents; recording, production, and air dates, when available; timings, or length, for both segment and overall program duration; and finally comments, which are primarily program notes and rebroadcast information. It should be noted that voice out(v.o.), music out(m.o.), and program out(p.o.) are used indicate timing.
Following the audio recordings one finds scripts from throughout the programs broadcasting history. This is followed by a listing of programs that are missing their audio recordings. This section is comprised of all broadcasts from the year 1975, half of 1974, and a few scattered programs from other years. As in the first two series, these two sections are also organized chronologicaly.
