Featuring the CBS series that Goodman Ace created. From July 7, 1947 to March 21, 1938, the series was called, CBS IS THERE, then it was called, YOU ARE THERE until the series ended on July 9, 1950. This was a wonderful radio program that featured dramatizations of stories from history with newsmen Richard C. Hottelet, John Daly, and Don Hollenbeck. It done in a format which, for an example, the host, say Hottelet interviewed George Washington at the time of the Delaware Crossing, and in detail would tell hot the fighting was going, etc., Excellent 1950's radio!!
