Rudolph the Red Nosed Reindeer has been enchanting children for decades now. Tonight on the Front Porch, we'll hear about the Dartmouth grad who brought the determined animal to life in the 1930s, and we'll find out how the animated version of the story ended up setting the bar for televised holiday specials for years to come.

Our guests are:

Bonnie Wallin, Curator of the Williams/Watson Theater Collection at Rauner's Special Collection Library at Dartmouth College.

Ron Simon, Curator of Radio and Television at the Museum of Television & Radio.
