The Norman Corwin Special Episode - a podcast by Smitty, Mike, and The Galaxy Gang

(Courtesy of www.NormanCorwinOnline.com) Norman Corwin is one of the greatest living writers in the English language, and has been called America's "poet laureate of radio." During the 1930's and 40's, he wrote and produced many of the most powerful, most influential, and simply the best programs ever created for the media. When President Roosevelt wanted to celebrate the Bill of Rights, as World War II engulfed the globe, Norman Corwin got the call. When time came to celebrate and reflect on Victory in Europe -- and again in the Pacific -- Norman Corwin was the obvious choice. Corwin's programs range far and wide through the genres of drama and comedy, including love stories, satire, biography, fantasy, mystery, Bible stories, travelogues, history, media analyses, philosophy -- and more. All, along with his programs on current events and the stories of America, are superb examples of the art. Together, they are a master class in how to evoke the greatest possibilities of sound, and of radio.
