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

It gave me time to think, time to look back on my life to see where I'd been. And, in a way, it gave me an opportunity to see where I was going. As a result, I was surprised to find how much living I could get into a 24-hour day — >by slowing down!" Lee says that the first few years of his professional life found him on a performing merry-go-round; he no sooner got off one engagement than he got on another. But he admits that it was his own fault that put him there. "There was too much time wasted sleeping," he says, "that was my philosophy. I figured if I stayed awake twenty hours instead of sixteen, I could get twice as much work done in half the additional time. The fact that it caught up with me shows that I was wrong.
