Arnie Reisman and Nat Segaloff’s “The Waldorf Conference,” this weekend on L.A. Theater Works
This weekend L.A. Theater Works continues California Month with a dark chapter in Hollywood history. On November 24, 1947, the most powerful men in American film met in New York’s plush Waldorf-Astoria Hotel to decide how to address the Communist witch hunt being carried out by the House Un-American Activities Committee. Twenty-four hours later they emerged having created the Hollywood Blacklist. The Waldorf Conference by Nat Segaloff, Daniel M. Kimmel and Arnie Reisman dramatically speculates on what went on in that room.

Thanks for the plug. First I heard of this broadcast. Don’t think it’s been aired in years.
