Produktbeschreibung
From Lucy to ALF, from game shows to talk shows, from local news to the made-for-TV movie, The Industry in Our Backyard: Television Production in Los Angeles 1940s-1980s showcases five decades in the life of the medium that dominated American culture, yet for Angelenos, was just another part of daily life. The images displayed in the exhibit were largely taken by photographers from the Herald Examiner and the Valley Times newspapers, who were granted exclusive access to back lots, sound stages and location shoots around town for their TV sections. These photos, which have not been seen in as many as sixty-five years when they first ran in the papers, provide rare glimpses of the earliest L.A. stations, the crews at work and the stars in action.

Autorenporträt
Wendy Horowitz is a librarian and photo archivist for Los Angeles Public Library. Her interest in television history began when she was in elementary school, studying TV listings dating back to 1949 in her library's New York Times microfilm collection. As a teenager she regularly traveled to the Museum of Broadcasting (now The Paley Center for Media) in New York City to watch early shows like Mr. Peepers, Your Show of Shows and Queen for a Day and to engage in conversation with the other TV history enthusiasts who congregated there. After her high school audio visual teacher, Stan Lozowski, taught her to operate a 16mm projector, splice and edit, she started her own collection of TV shows and TV commercials on 16mm film. She has exhibited her collection at festivals, libraries and schools, but mostly in her home, and continues to host TV parties today.
