There goes what's her name

By Graham, Virginia

Subjects: radio, talk shows, television, Jack Paar

Description: Virginia Graham is unknown today, but was an early broadcasting pioneer of women-focused television. If you grew up in the 1960s and ever saw Merv Griffin you probably saw Graham, a big woman with shellacked blond hair. If you are older, you might even remember "Girl Talk" her talk show. This is her autobiography, and if you have an interest in early TV, it may interest you. She interacts with a number of important people like Jack Paar and Dave Garroway. Surprisingly, it slights her college years, which might have been worth mentioning. She went to the University of Chicago to study anthropology.
