Together, they revolutionized the way television covers music, dance, opera, and theater. In interviews with TV historian Brian Rose, they offer an engaging survey of five decades of American television. The challenges they faced as cultural directors are brought vividly to life, particularly the difficult task of translating works created for one medium to another.
