    She died in 1957 so she certainly could have been.
    Marc
    BTW my grandmother grew up with her.

    if laura ingalls wilder died in 1957, she could  have been interviewed for
    television as well as   radio.

    Subject:  #OldRadio IRC Chat this Thursday Night!

    A weekly [removed]

    For the best in OTR Chat, join IRC (Internet Relay Chat), StarLink-IRC
    Network, the channel name is #OldRadio.  We meet Thursdays at 8 PM Eastern
    and go on, and on! The oldest OTR Chat Channel, it has been in existence
    over nine years, same time, same channel! Started by Lois Culver, widow
    of actor Howard Culver, this is the place to be on Thursday night for
    real-time OTR talk!

    Our "regulars" include OTR actors, soundmen, collectors, listeners, and
    others interested in enjoying OTR from points all over the world. Discussions
    range from favorite shows to almost anything else under the sun (sometimes
    it's hard for us to stay on-topic)...but even if it isn't always focused,
    it's always a good time!

    For more info, contact charlie@[removed]. We hope to see you there, this
    week and every week!

    I have a family member who needs a good mp3 CD player for playing a series
    of Audio programs in mp3 recorded at 22Khz/32 Kbps.
    Could anyone recommend one based on Price, ease of use and reliabilty.

    Sincerely,

    Subject:  Sale of MediaBay

    I was wondering, does this mean that trading old-time radio shows will be
    back in power like the early days of trading?  And what happens to the
    rights of the shows Radio Spirits owns?

    Subject:  OTR Club

    Richard Olday, commenting on my recollections of a Radio Spirits
    "decoder" notes,

     >Mr. Kallis recently mentioned doing business with the
     >Old Time Radio Club. I do not know the business
     >he referred to, but the Old Time Radio Club is
     >alive & prospering.

    In my comment, I indicated I wasn't sure of the memory of the "club."
    So, I've dug out my "decoder," and will describe it in some detail.   The
    device appears to be made of stamped sheet brass, with a rounded top and
    a square bottom, making it appear much like a cathedral radio.  In the
    center of this is a "dial," a disk with a knob.  The circular number
    scale is a red annulus.  Sweeping along the top of this item is "Radio
    Spirits, Inc."  Near the base, it says "Old Time Radio Club of America."
    Between the cipher parts of the object are representations of two knobs,
    apparently one for tuning; the other, volume.  There is also a
    representation of a radio dial.

    I'm sure that there are more than a few Old Time Radio Clubs scattered
    across the globe; this inactive, if not defunct, group was founded by
    Radio Spirits.
