Norman Corwin

“Widely acclaimed as the greatest writer-director-producer of the Golden Age of Radio, Norman Corwin commanded a devoted following throughout his years at CBS. He perfected his own unique recipe for success: begin with the human mind and kneed gently; add a dash of poetry, wit and wonder; to this, add a cup of raw passion and stir vigorously; garnish with sound effects, and allow one half hour to marinate in a musical score. Finally, season liberally with intelligence and digest slowly.” –Excerpt from the Program Guide to Centennial, the 10-CD Norman Corwin box set released by Radio Spirits in 2010, the 100th anniversary of his birth.
