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

In Colby's, she told herself, she would meet all her friends, and they would be gay together, and celebrate her good fortune. She floated into Colby's. The faces were faces she'd never seen before. There was one girl she knew vaguely, so she advanced on her.
