SUMMARY:Steve Allen: Renaissance Man of Late-Night Television
DESCRIPTION:Steve Allen: Renaissance Man of Late-Night Television\nThe Tonight Show has been a mainstay of American life for over 50 years. Each of the permanent hosts has stamped American culture in unique\, distinctive\, and memorable ways. Who was the greatest host in the history of the Tonight Show? That is a matter of personal opinion\, of course. However\, in terms of the sheer influence on the direction and the look of late-night television talk shows\, the choice would probably have to be Steve Allen. If you loved when Johnny Carson did his memorable “Carnac the Magnificent” routine\, you might not know that it was a direct copy from the Steve Allen routine called “The Answer Man.” Jay Leno was famous for “Jaywalking.” It was a clever routine – and directly copied from Steve Allen. When Steve Allen appeared on the Tonight Show to celebrate the 50th anniversary of the program\, Jay Leno knelt and kissed his ring! \nSteve Allen: Renaissance Man of Late-Night Television\n As the first host of The Tonight Show\, Steve Allen helped shape our late-night television expectations. But he was far more than just a superb comic broadcaster. This amazing man wrote over 75 books and over 5000 songs\, appeared in major movies\, won awards as a producer\, lectured on philosophy\, history\, and ethics\, and was an accomplished jazz musician. Nobody in the history of show business can approach Steve Allen’s fantastic range of talent and intellect. We will watch rare film clips\, listen to hilarious stories\, and enjoy examples of Steve Allen’s music. I will also add numerous personal anecdotes about my acquaintanceship with Steve Allen. \nThis is one of my favorite presentations! I know you will love it. \nCOST\nThe program is available for a minimum contribution of $5.00\, which helps support my work and allows me to continue offering engaging content. \nPAYMENT OPTIONS \nCash/Check\nPayable to: Barry Bradford\nMail to:\nBarry Bradford\nP.O.

SUMMARY:Julia Child: Spy And Chef
DESCRIPTION:Julia Child: Spy And Chef\n \nIn 1963\, Julia Child became the first national superstar chef on TV! \nHer program “The French Chef” was so influential that the Smithsonian Institute features her kitchen\, intact\, as a permanent exhibit!  Julia Child changed how America thought about food\, became the first star of public broadcasting\, opened the doors for cooking on television\, and became one of the first and most essential faces of public broadcasting.  Quite a legacy for a woman who was neither French nor a chef! \n There was another long-secret side to Julia Child that she hid for many decades. \nIn 1943\, twenty years before her cooking and media skills became famous\, Julia Child served in America’s top-secret spy corps during World War II!  The fantastic Julia Child worked in the Office of Strategic Services (OSS) – the predecessor to the Central Intelligence Agency! \n \nUtilizing a very high level of security clearance\, exceptional organizational skills\, and endless optimism and resourcefulness\, the former party girl from California served America as her nation.  She worked at the right hand of “Wild Bill” Donovan\, the head of America’s foreign spies!  Paul\, Julia Child\, moved from one dangerous overseas post to another with her husband\, serving our country before learning to cook. \n  \nThe daring story of Julia Child in the OSS is only one of the delights in this unique\, funny\, and fascinating multimedia presentation!  We will look at how she changed public television\, how America cooked and ate\, and had a lot of fun in everything she attempted! \n  \n  \n

SUMMARY:Nellie Bly
DESCRIPTION:Nellie Bly was one of the most groundbreaking female journalists in American history! \nShe began her journalistic career before she was 20 years old. Working in a time when very few women had ever achieved a great deal of success in journalism\, Nelly Bly broke every mold and every expectation as to what a woman could do in the ‘man’s world’ of newspaper reporting. Smart\, fearless\, and determined\, Nellie Bly fearlessly exposed the harsh\, unfair working conditions for mill workers in Pittsburgh\, drawing the ire of the richest people in the city. She then served as her newspaper  ‘s foreign correspondent in Mexico before being run out of the country for exposing governmental corruption. This dangerous assignment made the petite Ms. Bly the first woman ever to be an accredited foreign correspondent for an American newspaper! \nWanting greater challenges and rejecting the stereotypical notion that female reporters should cover “women’s stories\,” Nelly Bly moved to New York City. In her first assignment\, for Joseph Pulitzer\, she risked her life going undercover in a “mental asylum” in New York. For ten harrowing days\, she was locked in an asylum where Ms. Bly was starved\, tortured\, and unable to secure her own release. Her bombshell reporting caused the New York City asylum to be shut down\, and New York agreed to major reforms in the way they treated people with mental health issues. \nToday\, Nelly Bly is probably best remembered for being the first person ever to travel around the world in less than 80 days. If you are impressed with her accomplishments\, let me add that she did all this before she was 25 years old! \n

SUMMARY:Adlai Stevenson
DESCRIPTION:Adlai Stevenson II was one of the most remarkable political figures of the second half of the 20th century. Although his entire career as an elected public official consisted of one term as the governor of Illinois. He ran unsuccessfully for president twice\, losing by a landslide each attempt. Yet\, so deep was his popularity and widespread his influence that the Democrats considered nominating him a third time for the presidency. It is exceedingly rare for a man trounced in a presidential election to get a second shot at the office. It is even rare for someone to have lost twice and still be considered one of the greatest stars in the history of his political party. Such is the influence of Adlai Stevenson. \nThis fascinating multimedia presentation will look at Stevenson’s roots in downstate Illinois as the son and grandson of important citizens of the state. Click here to read about one of the most unique stories in his young life – the time that Adlai Stevenson actually took the life of a young girl with a rifle. \nWe will follow Adlai Stenson’s government service through World War II and look at the personal qualities that led the Democrats to make him their standard bearer twice. We will conclude with a look at his inspiring and effective leadership as the United States Ambassador to the United Nations during the Cuban Missile Crisis. \nAdlai Stenson’s life story is inspiring and motivating while still challenging and complex. His wit\, wisdom\, and worldview make for an intriguing presentation.

SUMMARY:I Love Lucy - The Amazing Life Of Lucille Ball
DESCRIPTION:“I Love Lucy” was a cultural phenomenon!! It was not only the most popular television show on the air during the mid-1950s\, but it also continued to make audiences laugh over 60 years after it first aired. Many consider it the funniest situation comedy of all time. \nHow widespread was the popularity of” I Love Lucy?” In her autobiography\, Lucille Ball told a charming story of being in Japan\, turning on the TV\, and seeing one of her favorite episodes of the show-dubbed in Japanese! \nIn the 1960s\, Lucy returned with a new show that also dominated the ratings for half a decade. \nBut behind the scenes\, Lucille Ball’s life was far from a comedy. Although she is well remembered for her kindness\, generosity\, and warmth\, she suffered through a very dysfunctional childhood. Her rebellious teenage years almost led her to disaster. Lucy’s marriage was controversial and challenging. Although she had built a solid career as a model and movie actress\, it wasn’t until the years of television that Lucille Ball became a superstar. \nIn this fascinating and fast-moving multimedia presentation\, we will examine Lucy’s life before and after “I Love Lucy.” Using many video clips\, fascinating biographical anecdotes\, and intriguing insights\, we will learn the real reason everyone should love Lucy. \n  \n

SUMMARY:Dorothy Kilgallen
DESCRIPTION:Dorothy Kilgallen is best remembered today as a somewhat flinty regular panelist on the game show “I’ve Got a Secret.” \nHowever\,  this groundbreaking woman was a pioneer in journalism. Her role in attacking the conclusions of the Warren Commission became enormously important and highly controversial as Americans began to question the conclusion that Lee Harvey Oswald was the lone assassin of Pres. Kennedy! \nDorothy Kilgallen was the first woman in America ever to be a full-time murder reporter. She broke numerous major scoops and often made national headlines with her fearless coverage of criminal trials. \nWhen Dorothy Kilgallen learned that a male newspaper reporter would try to break the record for the fastest trip around the world\, Dorothy Kilgallen decided to challenge him to a race. The world became fixated on the “modern-day Nellie Bly.” Her exploits made Kilgallen famous and were even fictionalized in a major Hollywood movie! \nThis fame led her to New York and a position as both a serious reporter and a catty gossip columnist covering Broadway. Her unique career led her into a major feud with Frank Sinatra\, put her in a position to break open the Notorious and controversial Sam Shepard murder case\, and to leak the story of Marilyn Monroe’s affair with Pres. John F. Kennedy. \nLong before America met her as a game show panelist\, Dorothy Kilgallen became the first mainstream newspaper Porter in the country to question the Warren Commission. She endlessly attacked them\, always hinting that she knew more than she was saying at the moment. When she died under very mysterious circumstances\, many people concluded that she was murdered to shut her up about what she knew about the assassination of JFK. \nI promise you will find surprises around every corner as Dorothy Kilgallen’s life is revealed. Throughout this fascinating multimedia presentation\, we will learn the unexpected\, unparalleled\, and definitely unique story of the life and death of the fantastic Dorothy Kilgallen. \n

SUMMARY:James Madison And James Monroe: Influential Founding Fathers
DESCRIPTION:Their names are similar; their life spans are almost identical and each was considered one of the most influential of the founding fathers. Yet despite their very different personalities\, philosophies\, and  achievements\, most Americans today would have a hard time distinguishing one from another. This despite the fact that one of them is the primary author of the Constitution (James Madison) and the other is one of the greatest heroes of the Battle of Trenton. (James Monroe)  each served as president of the United States and their presidencies were very different as well. \nWe will look at the far ranging influence of these two great men.  As their lives intersected with people like George Washington\, Thomas Jefferson\, Benjamin Franklin\, and John Adams\, each was to become  revered for their patriotism\, courage\, wisdom\, and enormous contributions to the growth of the new nation. \nPLEASE NOTE: This presentation is offered through the Deerfield Men’s Club and registration is required\,
