[Swprograms] Fwd: [NASWA] Norman Corwin, Radio Pioneer, Dies at 101

I liked this quote especially:

“In radio there was never a term equivalent to boob tube or couch potato,” Mr. Corwin told the reference work “World Authors, 1900-1950.” “The eye is so literal, whereas the ear makes a participant of the listener. The listener becomes the set designer, the wardrobe mistress, the casting director. You can listen to ‘Carmen’ on radio. Carmen in person may weigh 350 pounds, but to the listener she’s a beautiful, steamy lady with a rose in her teeth.”
