Listen "Margaret Hamilton"
Episode Synopsis
A number of witches were on my show throughout the years, but none as famous as the Wicked Witch of the West, played by Margaret Hamilton in the movie "The Wizard of Oz." While filming, she was burned on her face and hand during a fiery exit from Munchinland and out six weeks before returning to the set. Margaret told the producer there would be no more fire scenes for her. She did not sue, thinking she'd never be hired to do another film. Hamilton did some radio work and had a part on three episodes of "The Addams Family." When she appeared on "Mr. Rogers Neighborhood" she attempted to convince the children not to be afraid of the wicked witch.
