Description
Host Cynthia Bemis Abrams revisits The Hardy Boys/Nancy Drew Mysteries on Sunday nights that aired 1977-79. She shares the background of the woman writer of teen fiction in the 1930s, the stringent standards placed on the girl detective character and Warner Brothers studio's attempt to put Nancy Drew on the silver screen. Cynthia ices the under-produced feminist vehicle by detailing how Pamela Sue Martin bolted for Playboy and wound up as a Dynasty Carrington. Resource: Melanie Rehak's 2005 "Girl Sleuth: Nancy Drew and the Women Who Created Her."
