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

tEA' P Daytime g Charmer The magic of TV means even more to the Deans than to most families, for it was Jimmy's success on the air which has made it possible for him to give Sue and young Constance and Garry the gracious life and spacious home he always wanted for them. Daytime TV performers keep hours much like any working husband's. Sue sees that Jimmy gets a good start for his day. hie's proud of his lovely, loyal wife, and still regrets that he didn't propose to her as "romantically" as he could have wished. Jimmy Dean's lovable qualities pin the ladies to the TV screen these afternoons. His night-time audience of three is just as loving I Herbie Jones, on The Jimmy Dean Show, is not only a talented guitarist but a living link with days when Jimmy first got started and was courting Sue. By ISABELLA MORGAN THE QUESTION from the audience at warm-up time was so unexpected it rocked even Jimmy Dean back on his heels. From the depths of CBS-TV's Studio 51, the voice demanded, "Are you paid?" Since Columbia Broadcasting System had but recently annoimced that it had spent a highly impressive sum to buy up Dean's contract and bring him from Washington to New York, there was the chance that it might have originated with some jealous joker, administering the needle. But, since you never can tell who is in a studio audience, there was always the possibility that the query might be straight-forward, naive, and honest. Jimmy's perplexed look indicated he was weighing his reply. Then a totally beatific smile broke over his country-boy countenance as he decided to give it a Texas-type answer. (Continued on page 74) The Jimmy Dean Show is seen on CBg-TV, M-F, 2 P.M. EST, under multiple sponsorship. 30
