Quizzing America by Mark Dunn
The 1950s television game show was a cultural touchstone, reflecting the zeitgeist of a flourishing modern nation. The author explores the iconography of the mid-20th century U.S. in the context of TV watching, game playing and prize winning. The scandals that marred the genre's reputation are revisited, highlighting American's propensity for both gullibility and winking cynicism.
Mark Dunn is a veteran playwright, novelist and nonfiction author, and the former public access librarian at the Museum of Television and Radio. He lives in Santa Fe, New Mexico.
