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

THE ORACLE SPEAKS Beulah Delli C, Elwood, Ind. — We know a lot about Harry Von Zell. First of all, he was born in Indianapolis, Ind., July 11, 1906. He got his education there, Sioux City, Iowa and Los Angeles, California. He left college after his first year when a football injury caused a protracted period of inactivity. He later took up boxing. Yes, that's just what I mean. Harry won three bouts and lost and tied one each before deserting fisticuffs as a profession. Made his radio debut over station KMIC as a singer. Harry is married, and he calls his wife "Mickey." The Von Zells live on Long Island with their seven-year-old son, Kenneth Harry.
