The 1941 WLS Family Album:

Jack Stilwell (photographed by Fons Ianelli)


Curator's note: Note the reflections in the glass of the control room window. I suspect Ianelli superimposed them during the printing process. You can see more of the WLS announcing staff in the 1932 WLS Family Album.


Jack Stilwell always has a smile for everyone, even at 5 o;clock in the morning on "Smile-A-While-Time." His cheerful voice is also heard on the National Barn Dance and dozens of others of your favorite programs.
