    Richard Allen Boone (June 18, 1917 – January 10, 1981) was an American actor who starred in
    over 50 films and was notable for his roles in Westerns and for starring in the

    Martin Gabel
    (June 19, 1912 – May 22, 1986) was an American actor, film director and film producer.
    Norman Lewis Corwin (May 3, 1910 – October 18, 2011) was an American writer, screenwriter,
    producer, essayist and teacher of journalism and writing. His earliest and
    biggest successes were in the writing and directing of radio drama during the 1930s and 1940s.
    Corwin
    was among the first producers to regularly use entertainment—even light entertainment—to tackle serious social issues. In this area he was a peer of Orson Welles and William N. Robson, and an
    inspiration to other later radio/TV writers such as Rod Serling, Gene Roddenberry, Norman Lear, J. Michael Straczynski and Yuri Rasovsky.
    He was the son of Samuel and Rose Corwin and was born in Boston, Massachusetts.
    Corwin was a major figure during the Golden Age of Radio. During the 1930s and 1940s
    he was a writer and producer of many radio programs in many genres: history,
    biography, fantasy, fiction, poetry and drama. He was the writer and creator of
    series such as The Columbia Workshop, 13 By Corwin,
    26 By Corwin and others. He recently was a lecturer at the University of Southern California.
    Corwin won a One World Award, two Peabody Medals, an Emmy, a Golden Globe, a duPont-Columbia Award; he was nominated for an Academy Award for Writing Adapted Screenplay for Lust for Life (1956). On May 12, 1990, he
    received an Honorary Doctorate from Lincoln College. In 1996 he received the
    Doctor of Humane Letters honoris causa from California Lutheran University. Corwin was
    inducted into the National Radio Hall of Fame in 1993.
    A documentary film on Corwin’s life, A Note of Triumph: The Golden
    Age of Norman Corwin, won an Academy Award for Best
    Documentary (Short Feature) in 2006. Les Guthman‘s feature
    documentary on Mr. Corwin’s career, Corwin aired on PBS in the 1990s. He
    was inducted into the Pacific Pioneer Broadcasters Diamond Circle in 1994
