+ Henry Morgan (born Henry Lerner Van Ost, Jr. March 31, 1915 – May 19, 1994) was an American humorist. He is remembered best in two modern media: radio, on which he first became familiar as a barbed but often self-deprecating satirist, and on television, where he was a regular and cantankerous panelist for the game show I've Got a Secret.-WikiPedia Click here to read more about Henry Morgan Show, The

Morgan was one of the first comedians that made fun of his sponsors, causing him to lose many sponsors for his radio programs. Morgan had shows on WOR-New York, ABC and NBC from 1940 to 1950.

HENRY MORGAN SHOW, THE

I learned of this show from a very fine interview done with Armold Stang in the early 1970s. The interview included an excerpt of this show, and I was quite taken with what Arnold and the interviewers had to say about it. They all couldn't stop talking about it. They really put the show on a pedestal and rightly so. The scripts were very well done and the comedy was genuinely right on the mark. It is hysterically funny at times. This is a sadly forgotten show that should be remembered. Thank you for providing access to it here!!!
