Bright Star (radio)

Bright Star (aka The Irene Dunne-Fred MacMurray Show) was a 30-minute radio comedy-drama broadcast in 1952-53 and syndicated by Ziv.

The storyline followed the misadventures of Hillsdale Morning Star editor Susan Armstrong (Irene Dunne) and her idealistic ace reporter George Harvey (Fred MacMurray) as they attempted to keep the struggling newspaper in business despite continual financial problems.

Harry von Zell and, later, Wendell Niles were the announcers for the series.
