At Home, an NBC show on which the couple interviewed guests in their

interviews. In the 1950s, the couple broadcast interviews with celebrities
from the Waldorf-Astoria hotel in Manhattan. The couple, who separated in
the 1980s, also helped persuade Dwight D. Eisenhower to run for President
(and were fundraisers for the Republican Party) and wrote a column for "The New
York Herald Tribune". Lightly creased and soiled. Otherwise, fine
