During the golden age of live radio and television, writers, performers, and producers created their programs in an environment far different from the studios of today. With live programming, anything could happen, and often did. Robert L. Mott, a veteran writer and Emmy-nominated sound effects creator of the live era, recreates the days when television and radio programs were performed live. He includes personal reminiscences as well as a forthright look behind the microphones: horses hooves were played by coconuts, African-American women were played by white males, andtelevision actors might ad lib an entire program that didn't go as planned.

Behind-the-scenes photographs are also included in this account of the excitingbut not always glamorousworld that was live on the air.
