My always-popular “Time Capsule” series turns its lens on America 75 years ago. 1947 was a turbulent year in the world. Israel and India became independent, the cold war began, the sound barrier was broken and the great Jackie Robinson integrated Major League Baseball. And those stories are just the start of the amazing tale of 1947!
We will look at famous people who were born in 1947, including Arnold Schwarzenegger, Hillary Clinton, Elton John, and Kareem Abdul-Jabbar. We will also look at famous people who left us during 1947, including Al Capone, Henry Ford, and Frances Cleveland.
You’ll be fascinated by the amazing news stories of 1947, the great inventions of that year the top movies and radio shows and so much more.
