    Re:  AT&T CORP. MEDIUM TERM NOTES, SERIES B (THE "NOTES")


Gentlemen:

     I have acted as tax counsel for AT&T Corp. (the "Company")
in connection with the proposed issuance of the Notes.  You have
requested my opinion regarding the accuracy of the disclosure of
the United States federal income tax considerations pertaining to
the Notes as set forth in the Prospectus Supplement dated July 5,
1995 relating to the Notes (the "Prospectus Supplement"), which
supplements the Prospectus dated June 5, 1995 relating to the
issuance of notes and warrants to purchase notes of the Company
(the "Prospectus").  Both the Prospectus Supplement and the
Prospectus relate to the Company's Registration Statement No.
33-59495 on Form S-3 under the Securities Act of 1933, which
became effective June 5, 1995 (the "Registration Statement").  

     My opinion is based upon:

     (i)  the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, Treasury
Regulations issued thereunder, Revenue Rulings and other
announcements issued by the Internal Revenue Service, and
judicial decisions in effect as of the date hereof (such statute,
regulations, rulings, announcements, and decisions collectively
referred to herein as the "Code and Regulations issued
thereunder"), all of which are subject to change with prospective
or retroactive effect, which change could adversely affect or
render inapplicable my opinion; and 

     (ii)  my assumption that the terms of the Notes are as
described in the Prospectus and the Prospectus Supplement.  
<PAGE> 2

     I have not myself checked or verified the accuracy or
completeness of the information contained in the Prospectus or
the Prospectus Supplement other than the statements set forth
under the heading "Taxation" in the Prospectus Supplement.  

     Based upon the foregoing, I am of the opinion that the
statements in the Prospectus Supplement under the heading
"Taxation" are accurate summaries of the Code and Regulations
issued thereunder.  

     I consent to the filing of this opinion as an exhibit to the
Company's Form 8-K, which will be filed with the Securities and
Exchange Commission and which is incorporated in the Registration
Statement.  


                                   Very truly yours,



                                   Ephraim M. Brecher
                                   Vice President - Taxes
                                    and Tax Counsel
