37. The historical end of a war.
Imagine: it’s August 15, 1945, the day Japan surrendered, which brought the end of World War II. You are working at a radio station in Los Angeles at the time. Three of the biggest celebrities are hanging there when all goes down. What do you do? Tell them to go live and give the bulletin all night long. Furthermore, that’s precisely what happened to Rita Hayworth, her husband at the time, Orson Welles, and Marlene Dietrich, who spent the night bringing bulletins about the end of the war, which Orson was excited about to announce. This picture was taken right after they finished, celebrating with a mug of coffee.
