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

As an actress, TV hostess and everybody's friend, Lily Lodge proves she has THAT MAGIC SOMETHING Lily and her roommate Kay Medford enjoy sharing their apartment, their triends and good times. Lily memorizes lines for her next play while Kay provides nourishment for Angelina, their lucky charm. 22 Surrounded by numerous objets d'art, Lily assumes a pensive attitude as she works on a new script. A rich, compelling voice, a deep, spirited love of the theater, a wholesome love of life. These, in part, are what make Lily Lodge, charming and gracious hostess on WOR-TV's The Man In Your Life show, such a refreshing, delightful person to know. Each Thursday afternoon, from 4 to 4: 30, Lily introduces viewers to gentlemen with interesting and varied occupations. The Man In Your Life is pleasant, informative afternoon fare for viewers— and for Lily, who greatly enjoys being able to come into people's homes each week. However, television is not the only medium by which Lily is making herself known. Before she entered the show-business world, Lily was already a celebrity — her father is Governor John Lodge of Connecticut and her uncle is Ambassador to the U.N. Henry Cabot Lodge. But, if being the daughter of a famous man can be helpful, it can also be a detriment for, in show business, it takes talent to stick. Today, there is no doubt that if Lily's name had been Smith, she would have succeeded in making it famous by herself. In addition to inheriting a famous name, Lily inherited her love for the theater from her parents. She never had to combat the "My daughter won't go on the stage" attitude, for both her parents were professional show people. Governor Lodge made many movies in Hollywood, among
