Hey everyone,

 

This is just a reminder to make sure you've got your registration in for the
36th and final Friends of Old Time Radio Convention, October 20-23, 2011 at
the Ramada Plaza Hotel in Newark, NJ.

 

Updates on the guest list and program can be found at our website, here
<http://www.fotr.net/> .   We've got the first appearance I can remember for
Rich Conaty of WFUV's The Big Broadcast - he's doing a one-on-one interview
sure to be packed with interesting information about music of the FOTR era.
Judy Canova's daughter Diana, herself the former star of "Soap" and Stephen
Sondheim's "Company," will be there.  Bear Manor Media publisher Ben Ohmart,
who publishes so many great books about old time radio personalities, is
coming all the way from his home in Japan to interview Arthur Anderson.

 

Radio historian Jack French is saluting radio Westerns, pop culture
historian and publisher Anthony Tollin is reminiscing about all of the great
moment of FOTR's vast history and directing an episode of Gunsmoke.

 

For everyone who says "wait until next year" every year, this is the final
event.  There will be other fine nostalgia conventions in the future - but
this may be the last, best one dedicated exclusively to old time radio, so
please make the time to come.

 

Please call with any questions.

 

Best,

 

Sean Dougherty
