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

My Father, My father, Warren Hull, doesn't act like a father at all. He's more like a brother and, if you'll pardon a pun, that's the consensus of the Hull family. In my sixteen years I can't remember any time that he's ordered or forced any of his sons to do anything. "But when you do a job," he advises, "put everything you have into it." That's always been Dad's philosophy and it's easy to understand why he gets so much satisfaction out of Strike It Rich when he tells contestants, "If you try hard enough, you can strike it rich." The words are a little different, but they say the same thing Dad believes and practices. And everyone who listens to the show knows that it is one of the few programs where something tangible is done for people in real need. It takes a master of ceremonies with a heart and real interest in people — and that's Dad. My two brothers will go along with me on that. There are four Hulls in our white, stucco house in Scarsdale and the whdle deal is strictly male.
