Memoirs of a Broadcaster in Radio and Television

Beschreibung

On Friday, May 18, 1934, radio columns in the New York press announced that Bert Parks of CBS would be ""relinquishing his status as N.Y.'s youngest Network Staff Announcer to the newly appointed George Ansbro on the NBC Announcing Staff."" From his role as an NBC page in 1931 to his career as a network announcer, Ansbro recalls an era that includes a who's who of early radio and Hollywood stars, and a transition from what was known as the Blue Network and its beginnings at Rockefeller Center to the massive radio and television organization now known as ABC.
