From 1959 to 1987, thousands of children tuned in daily to listen to the program. When Olly became a radio host in 1959, it was uncommon for married women to work outside the home, but she made it work while raising a young family. In this episode, we learn about Aunt Olly's process, her path to the career she had, and hear as listeners to Children's Party recount the impact it had on them.Your donations help preserve and share stories like this one!
