This version of Hedda Hopper's Hollywood is a complete audio air check which includes the original opening and contains all Rexall commercials. It's drawback is that this air check was recorded by open mike and not by direct line like Archival Television Audio #6: Hedda Hopper's Hollywood. NOTE: If requested, for a small additional fee, a special edited version can be processed using the best elements available, combining the original opening and all Rexall commercials with the more pristine direct line audio represented in ATA#6, creating the best audible complete version of this broadcast available.

Program number 7 of 18 programs. Myrna Loy introduces this unique series. A distinguished company of Hollywood's greatest directors...recalled by their disciples and their actors who dissect their varied ways of working. Chester Morris is host to directors George Seaton, Otto Preminger, King Vidor, Rouben Mamoulian and Edward Dmytryk. Janet Gaynor recalls F.W. Murnau. Dana Andrews talks about William Wyler, Teresa Wright speaks about Alfred Hitchcock. Jack Lemmon talks about John Ford, and Samson Raphaelson recalls the great Ernst Lubitsch. Most of the interviews were originally recorded in 1959 by producers Joan and Robert Franklin. NOTE: Robert C. Franklin (1920-1980), inspired by a 1958 newspaper story he read about Columbia University's POPULAR ARTS ORAL HISTORY PROJECT, approached Dr. Louis Starr, then director of the oral-history collection, with a proposal to interview and tape record, on to 1/4" reel to reel audio tapes, movie people as they passed through New York. The objective would be to document, through personal recollections, the era of the silent era in films, the impact of sound, the triumphs and inequities of the major studios, and life in the glittering film capital...a firsthand account revelation of how silent movies were actually made. Robert and his wife, Joan Franklin went on to record 200 reels of audio tape, recording celebrities mostly in New York City hotel rooms in 1958 and 1959. Transcripts of interviews were made available at the time to students and researchers. In 1961 excerpts/highlights from these audio tapes were edited into a 16 part radio series titled, MEMOIRS OF THE MOVIES. Myrna Loy provided a standard opening. A different celebrity host/hostess was employed to introduce each episode. All of the 90 celebrities interviewed have since passed away with the exception of Joanne Woodward. Two additional episodes were later produced, "Style of the 70's," and "Rush To Reality," both hosted by Ben Gazzara and added, subsequently, to re-issues of the series which were syndicated in the 1960's and 1970's airing in New York (WINS), Boston (WBZ), Philadelphia (KYW), Baltimore (WJZ), Fort Wayne (WOWO), Chicago (WIND), San Francisco (KPIX), and Los Angeles (KFWB). The original 200 unedited reels of 1/4" audio tape interviews recorded by Joan and Robert Franklin are no longer known to exist. However, audio cassette transfers from these original tapes were donated by Joan Franklin many decades ago to Columbia University's Oral History Research Office where they exist today. Confirmed during a 2009 phone conversation with Mary Marshal Clark, archivist at Columbia at that time, who stated that the first on file communication from Robert Franklin to Columbia University related to his proposal to do an oral history audio recorded project is dated, July 31, 1958.
