In the field of the serious drama, much was accomplished in 1938. Whereas the commercially sponsored dramatic program has to proceed cautiously so as to hold the wide audience it must command, in the sustaining field broadcasters experimented in many directions. The Columbia Experimental Workshop offered a number of most interesting plays carrying on the tradition established early in its career. The Columbia Broadcasting System ... found an appreciative audience for Orson Welles' series of broadcasts which he conducted under the title of 'First Person Singular.' The National Broadcasting Company presented the greater number of plays which had won the Pulitzer Prize, including three by Eugene O'Neill, in specially prepared radio versions.
