NC9-8012

Hello again! Welcome to The Soundbox! I’m your host Candace Sessums. Are you following The Soundbox? Whether you’re listening on Substack, Spotify, YouTube or Apple, please remember to follow it so that you never miss an episode. February is the birthday month of actress Natalie Masters. In the 1950s her husband Monty began writing a new detective drama for radio with the intention of playing the lead role. His mother-in-law had a different suggestion. So Monty changed the series to have a female lead instead and cast his wife in the starring role. From there Candy Matsen was born. Today I have an episode from December 27, 1949, titled “NC9-8012” Enjoy!”
