Sam Phillips Radio

This is the story of George Heller - the glamour boy of the trade union movement - and his actor colleagues Philip Loeb, Sam Jaffe, and Albert (Van) Dekker. It is also the story of the formation and growth of AFRA (the American Federation of Radio Artists) and its later incarnation AFTRA (the American Federation of Television and Radio Artists). Always prominent in Rita Morley Harvey's account of what happened to the union, to its members, and to Heller and his friends are the shadows cast by the radical right in government and those willing to help in its dirty work. The story of AFTRA begins during the Great Depression, a time of extraordinary trust and camaraderie as well as a time of tremendous hardship. But as American life stretched into the 1950s and the Golden Age of television, the radio and television industry was beset by Senator Joseph R. McCarthy and all that he came to represent. While many would like to forget the McCarthy era, Harvey insists that this was a "time of stunning consequence in the lives of George Heller and his friends, in the lives of hundreds of others as well, all good, decent citizens, all once-busy, much-admired radio and television performers. Here was a time that bred such bitterness, such hatred - brother to brother, local to local - that it would take more than a generation to put it to rest". Finding little published material on AFTRA, Harvey has based her biography on interviews with Heller's friends and detractors, accounts in the press of the day, and old union records. This spirited biography of George Heller also serves as an accessible inside history of the Golden Age of radio and television through its glory days and its era of shame -McCarthyism and political blacklisting.

Early rock and roll (1953-1963) According to some, notably music historian Peter Guralnick, the first fusion of heavily rhythmic African shuffles and sand dances with melody driven European genres, particularly the Irish jig. A double, ironic, meaning came to popular awareness in 1947 in blues music (which was mostly limited in exposure to jukeboxes and clubs) but were new to the radio airwaves. The term "Rock" as used today is a form of popular music, usually featuring vocals (often with vocal harmony backing), electric guitarss (and saxophone in the early days) and a strong back beat. These songs were relegated to "race music" (the music industry code name for rhythm and blues records as far back as the 1920s.
