      "Are there any more episodes?"

      The shows that have been posted are the only ones in circulation.

      Another 24 episodes of Young Love do exist; but are in an archive and will probably never be released to the OTR community.

      Young Love scripts exist at three different archives. These archives are in California, Ohio, and New York.
    • According to Janet the early episodes are the best. When Shirley Mitchell came on board as the character Mollie Bee the emphasis shifted from the roles she and Jimmy Lydon were playing to Mitchell's.
  • Last june 28th I had the great good fortune of working with Janet on two shows at the 2008 Radio Enthuiast of Puget Sound Showcase. I played her father in a Corliss Archer re-creation and Robert E. Lee to her Amy Wodruff in her late husbands last publised work. She is a marvel and possibly one of the most amazing talents I've ever known

    • That must have been a real treat. I'm sure you couldn't wait to begin. What was her husbands last published work by the way?
    • It was a novella called "The Lost Letters of General Robert E. Lee." Several years ago Peggy Webber of The California Artists radio Theater saw some potential in the piece as a radio play and asked Janet's permission to adapt it as such. In 1995 C.A.R.T presented it as a three person show in front of a live audience with Janet, Robert Rockwell and Norman Corwin. It wasn't done again until last month with Paul Herlinger of Adventures in Odyssey taking on the Corwin role of the narrator.
