A Note Of Triumph: The Norman Corwin Story
Speakers: MHS History Teach Jim Fagen & Author Ed Belding
Tuesday, November 15 . 7:30PM
Rockingham The Road to Peace (23 Min) is an historical documentary short narrative that chronicles the last days of the Revolutionary War when General George Washington wrote the famous 'Farewell Orders to Armies' at Rockingham, New Jersey in 1783. This documentary spans the last 3 months that General Washington spent after 8 long years at war to bring peace and Liberty to our great new Nation. The Norman Corwin Story (40 Min), radio's 'poet laureate', made an indelible impact on American culture with his broadcast of ON A NOTE OF TRIUMPH on V-E Day, May 8th, 1945. This film is an examination of the greatest radio presentation in the history of the medium and how it remains eerily prescient in light of today's current events. This film won an Academy Award in the Short Documentary category.
