C. B. Cochran
A musical portrait of the great showman, presented by SAM HEPPNER , which includes the voices of C.B. himself and some of the stars associated with him - Richard Rodgers , Jessie Matthews , and Anna Neagle who says: ' Cochran wasn't only a brilliant showman. He was such a human person. He knew us all by name ... When an understudy had to play the part for a principal he'd always write a letter thanking whoever it happened to be. When I had my tonsils out. flowers were sent to the hospital.'
Producer ANNA INSTONE
