For the first TV generation, the memories of those early shows and the stars who created them hold a special place in our hearts. And that’s why you will want to be sure to hear what our guest has to share.

Donna initially made her name and her career starring in some of the most important films of the 1940s and ‘50s, most notably It’s a Wonderful Life and From Here to Eternity. But Donna’s life and legacy went far beyond her roles on both the big and the small screens. She was an inspiration, an activist and a role model for the decency, compassion and values of America’s heartland.
