Description
In Hollywood, California, Margaret Truman, in her first radio dramatic role, is shown rehearsing with actor Jimmy (James) Stewart for a part in "Jackpot" on NBC's Screen Director's Playhouse. Under exclusive NBC contract, Miss Truman is making her first dramatic appearance on radio. She will do no singing on this program, playing the part of Stewart's wife. Her salary for the show is said to be the greatest ever paid any performer on the Playhouse program. From: Truman Home (album of photos and news clippings)
