Fred Allen's script writer Herman Wouk later wrote the bestsellers The Caine Mutniy and The Winds of War.
The House of Squibb, manufacturing chemists to the medical profession since 1858, were the sponsors of Academy Award Theater. All of the plays on Academy Award Theater featured the pictures, players, techniques and skills which won or were nominated for the coveted awards granted each year by the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences to each in his field for outstanding achievements. The opening show was Jezebel, with Bette Davis, and each and every subsequent play had one or more of the original film stars starring wherever possible. Unfortunately, this made the production very costly, and the series ended after less than a year.
