Memos to a New Millennium: The Final Radio Plays of Norman Corwin
presents, for the first time ever in print, a treasure-trove of
radio plays spanning fifty years in the extraordinary career of
radio's most famous dramatist. Subject matter for Corwin's radio
plays varied greatly. He was equally at ease writing light comedy
replete with mischievous rhymes as he was in crafting history
lessons that although written with poetic language, strike hard and
fast, delivering their import with expert efficiency. Be it
universal human rights, the power of prayer, the atomic bomb, the
origins of a national holiday, the birth of the Statue of Liberty,
the meaning of democracy and freedom in America, the struggle
between science and magic in our world, or an earnest memo to the
Third Millennium, Norman Corwin tackled it all with poise, humor,
and, above all, conviction. Beginning with Citizen of the World,
his final production for the CBS Radio Network in July 1949,
through his Peabody Award-winning years at United Nations Radio,
and culminating with his National Public Radio series finale, Memos
to a New Millennium broadcast on December 31, 1999, this book
covers the last half of the twentieth century as only Norman Corwin
could.
