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

How much those words can mean to a feminine world weary of winter and indoor life, hungry for the beauty and gaiety and freedom of spring (and simply dying for a chance to wear those spruce new Easter outfits.) The joyous spirit moves housewives, debutantes, office and factory workers — and prima donnas and movie stars, too, as I discovered when I hurried out to Silvermine, Connecticut, to see if one of the most smartly dressed women of three continents (Europe and both North and South America) and three professions (opera, screen and radio) could be induced to tell us her fashion secrets for spring. I found Lily Pons in the lovely walled garden of her country home, a demure whitewashed brick building modeled after an old French farmhouse.
