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

Most of the time, telephones are the bane of Milton's existence— they ring incessantly, and at the other end of the line there's always someone who wants him to do some thing, to add a twenty -fifth hour to the day so that he can pack more work, more shows, more benefits into a schedule already bursting at the seams. But during brunch, when the Berles gather together, those phones give Milton the high spot of his day, a time when he can laugh unaffectedly and wholeheartedly at someone else's antics.
