Crosley Broadcasting Network's Biggest Star in New Book!

John Kiesewetter penned an excellent article about Ruth Lyons for the Cincinnati Enquirer's Sunday, April 12, issue. Lyons' 50-50 Club was the top-rated show on the Crosley Broadcasting Newtork in Ohio, Indiana, and Kentucky during the 1950s and 1960s. Not incidentally, it talks about my biography of Miss Lyons, Before Oprah: Ruth Lyons, the Woman Who Created Talk TV (Orange Frazer Press, April 15, 2009).

The story (and the book) includes several previously unpublished photos.

The book is now available from Orange Frazer and Amazon.
