Program Description

Event Details

The early days of TV was dominated by men on the small screen but a surprising number of women (unusual for its time, the late 1940s and early 1950s) left a mark. Betty White was the last woman standing of a group that included Gertrude Berg, Hazel Scott, Dagmar, Faye Emerson, Martha Rountree and Lucille Ball.
