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

Nevertheless, Jone's husband, radio and TV producer Jack Mosman — and her home, which is a duplex apartment in New York — come first and foremost in Jone's "scheme of things entire." She loves to cook, admits, "I am a good cook. One of my specialties is veal birds a la Rossini. And one of my prized possessions is a cookbook supposed to be translated from the prize recipes of Napoleon Bonaparte's chef. All of them begin," Jone laughed, " 'Go out with bow and arrow and kill the stag,' or something. In other words, everything from the slaughter of the animal to its appearance on the dining table is included. I skip the slaughter," Jone laughed again, "and begin Operation Casserole, or whatever it may be, at the kitchen stove." Jone has a passion for interior decorating, too. The home of a charming woman invariably, it is said, is a frame for her personality. Jone's is. "Our living-room walls are the color," Jone said, "of the skin of an eggplant. For the tone of the draperies and the rug, we went into the inside of the eggplant — they are a pale, greeny, strange yellow. One large sofa is the color of the draperies. A smaller sofa is red-striped for accent, for gaiety. There is a dark green leather chair by the fireplace, again from the eggplant. Across one wall is the bookcase and record cabinet, which Jack designed. It's enormous, it's huge — we have quite a library The Guiding Light, sponsored by Procter & Gamble, M-F, on CBS at 1:45 P.M.
