Erskine Johnson in Hollywood brings the Hollywood columnist’s entertainment reporting to radio. The program centers on Johnson and his coverage of the film world, offering a snapshot of the people and activity associated with the movie business.
Presented as a radio feature rather than a dramatic story, it gives listeners a chance to hear Johnson’s on-air style and the program’s Hollywood-focused material. Michael Redgrave is named in connection with this recording.
The appeal lies in its period perspective on Hollywood and in hearing a contemporary radio voice report on the entertainment world. It offers a compact glimpse of show-business culture as presented to listeners of the time.
