Question
I will be doing a pop culture presentation on Lucille Ball the criteria is radio commericals only. Could you advise any radio work done by Lucille Ball?
Answer Yes, no problem. :)
In 1948, Lucille took a spot on a radio comedy show, entitled My Favorite Husband, in which she played a scatterbrained housewife named Liz Cugat (later known as "Cooper") It became successful and led to an offer from the television networks. Much like the character in her beloved sitcom, Ball hatched a scheme to get the Hollywood executives to sign Arnaz on before she would agree to it.
