Overview
It's hard to imagine life without television. It's even harder to remember that the television programming we take for granted was in its infancy a mere fifty years ago. No colour. No videotapes. Just black and white live programs, the work of a small handful of imaginative producers, directors, editors and actors who created shows by adapting radio and stage techniques. Dancing On Air tells the story of one of these pioneers, a Canadian, Horatio "Rai" Purdy who came to television via a stage and radio career. Written by Rai Purdy's widow, this is the third of her memoirs. "I only hope I can write half as well as you when I am in my 80s. Well done and congratulations " Paul Wild, Comox Valley Record. "The book is a fascinating story of an artist on the cutting edge of television ... and the woman who supported him." Jan DeGrass, Coast Reporter.
