Hal Hackett remembers tragedy only in the joyful task of doing for others what courage and faith did for him Having learned he could sing, even in a plaster cast, Hal brings his talent — and hope — to patients in New York's Bellevue Hospital. At left, above: Mrs. Agnes Weil, chairman of the adult recreation auxiliary there; acting recreation leader Claude Blackett; and concert pianist Moreland Kortkamp. Music just for fun, with Virginia Payne, star of Ma Perkins, and Jean Gillespie (Bob's wife, Esther). It was Virginia who sent him for interview which eventually led to Hal's getting the role of Bob — one of many "breaks" for which he's grateful. "I am only trying to give back what has been given to me," he says. Hal Hackett is Bob Lyle in CBS Radio's Ma Perkins, written by Orin Tovrov, produced and directed by Edwin Wolfe, M-F, 1:15 P.M.
