On May 8, 1945, 60 million Americans tuned in to hear On A Note of Triumph, Norman Corwin's radio masterpiece marking the end of World War II in Europe. Lauded by Carl Sandburg as "one of the all-time great American poems," it was the most listened-to radio drama in U.S. history. The narrator is Martin Gable, best remembered by those not fans of the New York stage as the husband of Arlene Francis of What's My Line fame.
