Description:
Radio Mirror (later known as Radio and Television Mirror) was a fan magazine for radio listeners and later TV viewers that includes profiles of the stars, visits to radio and television studios, and program listings. The early years in the 1930s show the interaction of motion pictures, recordings, the stage, radio and even politics. The role of radio in World War II is well covered in the 1940s, and by the 1950s the focus shifts to television and a new generation of personalities. -- David Pierce, 2013

II A message from Arthur Godfrey to Dick Powell Arthur Godfrey had had dinner with Dick Powell a month before the day that Powell, with his wife June Allyson steadfastly by his side, revealed to the press that he had been stricken by cancer, the reporter recalled. Perhaps at that dinner Dick might have confided in Arthur, told him of his pain, his torment, his fear — for what better man to turn to than Godfrey, who himself had been stricken with cancer, who had come within a pulse beat of death and who had somehow managed to survive? The reporter shook his head as he watched the rain beating against the glass-enclosed airport wait ing room. Only Godfrey would be in a position to disclose what had happened — if anything — between Powell and himself out there on the Coast; but if this heavy rain and blustering wind kept up, they'd close down Boston Airport and Arthur, piloting his own Convair up from Washington, would be forced to land some place else. On the off-chance that Godfrey might still manage to land before the field shut down, the reporter rechecked his notes on Powell. The notes were terse, cold, a summary. Only Arthur, through his insights, through his own experience, could bring them to life. 46
