EDITORS COMMENTS
was a captivating radio presentation brought to life by the Barnum Radio Players on WBBM in the heart of the Midwest, between the years 1936 and 1941. This enlightening series was proudly presented by the Museum of Science & Industry in partnership with the Illinois Writers Project, an initiative of the Works Progress Administration (WPA). The evocative poster for this intellectual adventure showcases a stylized, thoughtful face of a man holding a test tube, symbolizing the fusion of scientific discovery and human intellect. The image embodies the spirit of progress and innovation that defined the era. As part of the New Deal's WPA, the Illinois Writers Project aimed to employ out-of-work writers, providing them with the opportunity to create compelling works that would inspire and educate the public. The "Moments with Genius" radio series was a testament to the project's success, showcasing the talents of these writers and their ability to bring to life the stories of history's most brilliant minds. Listeners tuned in each week to be transported through time, as the Barnum Radio Players breathed life into the words penned by these writers. The series explored the lives, discoveries, and groundbreaking achievements of influential scientists, thinkers, and artists, offering a glimpse into the human stories behind the world's most significant advancements. This poster serves as a reminder of a bygone era when radio was the primary source of entertainment and education for millions. It stands as a testament to the power of the written word and the enduring allure of human genius.
