Quizzing America: Television Game Shows and Popular Culture in the 1950s

 
Quizzing America: Television Game Shows and Popular Culture in the 1950s

Description

Nothing was more American in the 1950s than the TV quiz show, which illuminated and mirrored the hopes, dreams, fads and faults of a nation-come-of-age. Using the quiz show as video roadmap into the soul and zeitgeist of a proud republic, Mark Dunn playfully captures in this volume aspects of the iconography of a mid-century US within the context of TV game playing, prize-winning, and collective self-examination.
