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

FUL CARAVAN OF RADIO IN THESE PAGES. Above, Vic Irwin, whose orchestra provides the music for "Popeye the Sailor" over NBC, Tuesdays, Thursdays, and Saturdays at 7:15. Returned to New York from Hollywood to take over the job . . . Right, Bobby Meeker, who supplies listeners of WGY, Schenectady, with fine dance tunes. He graduated from the University of Chicago and has played in hotels in many large U. S. cities . . . Below, Ted Black, another WGY dance maestro. A youthful case of measles started his musical career — his father gave him a harmonica to keep him amused in bed. Taught himself all he knows about music . . . Below right, Frances Adair, who sings about "Moon Over Manhattan" Sunday mornings at I 1:00 over NBC. Left her native Chicago to sing in vaudeville, George White's "Scandals," and movie shorts. Tall and willowy, she has blue-gray eyes and light brown hair and is still unmarried. DANCE MAESTRO TED BLACK 1* V ^j FRANCES ADAIR
