It's even harder to remember that the television programming we take for granted was in its infancy a mere fifty years ago. No colour. No videotapes. Just black and white live programs, the work of a small handful of imaginative producers, directors, editors and actors who created shows by adapting radio and stage techniques. Dancing On Air tells the story of one of these pioneers, a Canadian, Horatio \"Rai\" Purdy who came to television via a stage and radio career. Written by Rai Purdy's widow, this is the third of her memoirs. \"I only hope I can write half as well as you when I am in my 80s. Well done and congratulations!\" Paul Wild, Comox Valley Record. \"The book is a fascinating story of an artist on the cutting edge of television ... and the woman who supported him.\" Jan DeGrass, Coast Reporter.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Mia Karts","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":68099917414688,"sku":"NEW1896238076","price":34.0,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0980\/7426\/3840\/files\/61q8A2guYHL.jpg?v=1793656171","url":"https:\/\/miakarts.com\/en-ca\/products\/dancing-on-air-my-life-with-rai-purdy-1896238076","provider":"Miakarts Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
