audition for the radio program, "Uncle August’s Kiddie Show" on Toledo’s 
WSPD. She won a number of talent shows in later years and played night 
in New York including the famous Latin Quarter. An agent, Richie Lisella,
heard her sing and took her career in hand, and soon she was signed to
a contract with London Records. She recorded, what became her signature

neuromuscular disease at the age of 76.

Orson Wells was a film director, actor, screenwriter, and producer. Welles 
found national and international fame as the director and narrator of a 1938 
radio adaptation of H.G. Well’s novel, The War of the Worlds.The radio drama
was performed on the Mercury Theater of the Air. His first film with RKO was
Citizen Kane in 1941, in which he starred as Charles Foster Kane. It is felt by 
many to be  the greatest film ever made. Another Wells masterpiece is Touch
of Evil (1958). On October 10, 1985, Wells did his final interview on The Merv
Griffin Show (below).

Actress Eve Arden (April 30, 1908 – November 12, 1990). Her almost 60-year
career included many supporting and leading roles in film, radio and television, but
she is perhaps best remembered for playing a high school teacher in the classic
sitcom Our Miss Brooks. It began as a radio show broadcast on CBS from 1948
to 1957. When the show was adapted to television (1952–56), it became one of the medium’s earliest hits. In 1956, the sitcom was adapted for the big screen with the
same name. Arden also has special guest appearances as Rydell High School
principal McGee in the films Grease (1978) and Grease 2 (1982). She was
inducted into the Radio Hall of Fame in 1995.
