Kirk Douglas Heads Great Gatsby Play on the Family Hour -- January 31, 2025

Sioux City Journal, 01-January-1950

Family Hour of Stars was a CBS Radio program that ran from 1948 to 1950. It featured a repertory group of stars who played in "radio adaptions of great works of literature."

On 01-January-1950, Kirk Douglas starred in F Scott Fitzgerald's The Great Gatsby. Douglas played Gatsby, so I imagine the character was more in the foreground than Gatsby is usually.
