  Mr President Collection 1

  Mr. President came to ABC radio in 1947 and lasted until 1953. Each half-hour drama was based on an actual incident in the life of one of the men who have held the office of President of the United States. The scripts were cleverly written in such a way as to not reveal the name of the President until the last line of dialog in the program, when the President would be addressed by name. The audience was thus encouraged to guess, from the plot of the episode, which President he was. The series was created by Robert G. Jennings and produced and directed by Dick Woolen. The stories were written by a team that included Jean Holloway, Bernard Dougall and Ira Marion. An expert research staff made certain that the facts depicted were accurate. Each and every week, the Chief Executive was portrayed by the same actor, Edward Arnold. Arnold appeared in over 150 films and had served as President of The Screen Actors Guild (1940-1942). A lifelong conservative Republican and staunch anti-Communist, Arnold was one of the first actors to seriously consider running for public office. After losing a close election for Los Angeles City Alderman in the mid-1940s, he expressed his views afterward that entertainment and politics were incompatible. Of course, he has been proven wrong numerous times since then. Enjoy 12 half-hour episodes of Mr. President, one of the best historical dramas ever heard on radio.

  A new collection of poetry inspired by the work of Agnes Martin, exploring topics of feminism, art, depression, and grief, by the author of the prizewinning collection Obit.Yesterday I slung my depression on my back and went to the museum. I only asked four attendants where the Agnes painting was and the fifth one knew. I walked into the room and saw it right away. From afar, it was a large white square.With My Back to the World engages with the paintings and writings of Agnes Martin, the celebrated abstract artist, in ways that open up new modes of expression, expanding the scope of what art, poetry, and the human mind can do. Filled with surprise and insight, wit and profundity, the book explores the nature of the self, of existence, life and death, grief and depression, time and space. Strikingly original, fluidly strange, Victoria Chang's new collection is a book that speaks to how we see and are seen.

  Poetry of Love The - Speaking...

  John Keats, Elizabeth Barrett...

  Love whether fleeting or of the ages, expressed with a look, a touch, or a thought is wanted by us all. 
   
  Across genders and generations love is both the glue and the accelerant of our lives. 
   
  Yet once gained we sometimes let it go without recognition of its value or fail to nourish it spiritually. Love needs feeding, needs tending. Love needs love. 
   
  In today’s easy, ‘always on’ society we wail, whine and weep and forget that accomplishment will involve work, will involve sacrifice but it brings rewards. Rewards larger than our rational understanding but instinctively safe within our souls.  And that can make us better people. To ourselves and each other. 
   
  First love can be electric and consuming. But love matures, passions turn to bonds, amour to armour, to soulmates. A parents’ love is infinite and merciful but always streaked with protection.  The march of time makes love dependable despite squabbles and bumps of heartache.  But love can be unrequited, love can break, can fail.  Love comes in all shapes and sizes, and in many combinations, for an instant and forever.   
    
  When we speak with our hearts we speak with a rarer truth that the brain can make light of, can reduce to the ephemeral, but love is our greatest ally, our surest need that we are of value to each other and our common humanity.  
   
  Sometimes love requires many things of us. To bear loss, to retreat, to compromise, to surrender but in every way, it enriches us. Sometimes not even for now but some future gain. 
   
  Our classic poets did not surrender to the logic of the group or seek advice from others quick to blame but slow to embrace.  Their legacy remains because it is true, because in that look, that touch, that thought, that display of words the heart remembers us and treasures us. 
   
  Here are words and verse of love.  For your ears, your loved one’s ears and hearts everywhere.
