Dear fans,
Grayson was in my thoughts yesterday, so I decided to check her IMDB listings. I was delighted to discover a newly entered credit for a TV show appearance she did in the US Steel Hour anthology series, in 1959. On a date that's remarkably easy for me to remember; it's the day that my one and only sister was born.
United States Steel Hour (ran from 1953 through 1963)
"Wish on the Moon" Episode: #6.23 - 29 July 1959
Peter Brandon .... Hal Peterson
Peggy Conklin .... Miss Boyce
Joe De Santis .... Mr. Albright
Peggy Ann Garner .... Frances Barclay
William Gaxton .... Barney Goodwyn
Grayson Hall .... Secretary (as Shirley Grayson)
Gerald Hiken .... David Thorn
Emily Kimbrough .... Radio Commentator
Biff McGuire .... Gil Wayne
Erin O'Brien (I) .... Olivia Beech
While looking through the other listings for this series, I spotted an appearance by Thayer David in a 1957 episode. Unlike poor Grayson, his character did have a name. I wouldn't be surprised if other DS cast members appeared in this series, particularly such folks as Louis Edmonds and Clarice Blackburn.
If anybody has any ideas how I could get hold of a tape of this, I'd be thrilled to hear about it.

Hi Gothick,
I'm sure you're right about other DS players appearing on episodes of the United States Steel Hour. Just a couple months ago I discovered an episode at the Museum of Broadcast Communications here in Chicago with Diana Millay in it entitled: 'A Taste of Champagne'. In it, she plays an airline stewardess, and appears in Acts I & II of the three part story. It is a minor role, but she gets a fair amount of air time.
Unfortunately this is the only United Steel Hour episode they have in their archive. :-[

And unfortunately it's not here in NYC at the Museum of Radio & Television either. . .boo hoo.
