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

Under the terms of the agreement NBC will produce an average of one manuscript every four months, with Sherwood having complete freedom and independence in the selection of his subject matter and treatment of his story. And the Pulitzer Prize dramatist will earn a five-figure fee for each play, the highest amount ever paid for a single TV script. CBS has signed another famous play
