EDITORS COMMENTS

October 30, 1938 - A night that will be etched in the annals of broadcasting history. Orson Welles, a young and ambitious radio personality, takes to the airwaves to bring H.G. Wells' classic science fiction novel "The War of the Worlds" to life on CBS Radio. In this iconic photograph, Welles is seen reading from the text with conviction and intensity, his eyes locked onto the microphone as he brings forth a sense of urgency and drama to the story. As he reads aloud, listeners are transported to a world where Martians invade New Jersey and chaos ensues. The broadcast was so convincing that it sparked widespread panic across America, with many believing that an actual alien invasion was underway. This image captures not only Welles' remarkable talent as a broadcaster but also his innovative approach to storytelling. This historic moment marked a turning point in radio broadcasting, showcasing its power to captivate audiences and blur the lines between reality and fiction. As we gaze upon this black-and-white portrait of Orson Welles at work, we are reminded of the enduring impact of art on our collective imagination.
