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

UNTIL THIS SHOW 28 SOMETHING is happening to Hollywood the invulnerable, the impenetrable, the town of a thousand stars who have never met each other and who, until recently, never even wanted to. It's nothing you can stand around and watch, but it is stirring Hollywood to its depths just as much as though it were a first class, house-crumbling earthquake. It's the most far reaching event since this citadel of films became wired for sound, and it's all because a radio program suddenly moved in and set up shop. Society barriers, those invisible and cruelly sharp fences that in Hollywood keep all the stars in their own backyards, are melting away, and the stars are getting out to play, they're getting around, making friends with people they'd never dreamed of knowing six months ago.
