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

Hughes Listen, the Women Bob Hope Service to the Front Congress Speaks Hildegarde Casey, Press Photographer Words at War N O ACCOUNTING The Voice of the Army is a swell show. It's transcribed and comes to you over some 880 local and network stations. Like many of the transcriptions distributed by the government, it's presented whenever the stations have free air time. Look for it in your local radio listings — and listen. There seem to be things that need to be said to all of us — and this show says them with zing and drama and darned good sense. One of the several writers assigned to The Voice of the Army is Cpl. Jacques Finke. Jacques is a native New Yorker. He went to the Horace Mann School and to college at Cornell. He was always determined to become a writer. At Cornell, he wrote for the campus literary magazine, "Aeropagus", and for the college radio group and, of course, for the inevitable musicals. After his graduation, his ambitions ran into a snag. His father wanted him to be an accountant. So, Jacques went to the Graduate School at Columbia — ostensibly to study accountancy. Actually, he cut classes and spent all his time in the "Browsing Room", reading short stories and books about short stories — and trying to write. Even fathers get impatient, however Papa wanted some results. So, Jacques hied himself to CBS, announced to the personnel director that he wanted to be a writer and asked to be taken on as a member of the CBS apprentice group. Jacques worked in every department at the station, until, about three quarters of the way through the course, he was asked by Max Wiley whether he would like to join the script department. Jacques didn't even think twice about that. Jacques was a member of the CBS. writing staff for about three years, at one time or another, writing the continuity for practically every CBS program. He also wrote Ave Columbia Workshop scripts — the highest you could go in artistic distinction at that time. Then, while he was away on vacation the third year, he got a long distance call from an advertising agency, asking him to join the radio staff. Feeling like a change, he took the job, writing the continuity for Hit Parade, writing and directing the Cities Service Program. Not finding this enough to take up all his time — but mostly all his ideas — he also freelanced the first 13 weeks of the Radio Readers' Digest and wrote scripts for Suspense , Report to the Nation and Romance . He says he made lots of money in those days and ate very well — when he had time to eat. In June of 1943, Jacques found his "Greetings" in the mail. After his basic training, he was sent to Governor's Island and assigned to work on The Voice of the Army . Besides that, since he's been out there, he's written the lyrics to a song — "Fool That I Am" — which appeared in a recent copy of Radio Romances. Remember?
