The New Loretta Young Show: Christina's Children Series

Few celebrities have enjoyed the professional longevity of the Hollywood actress Loretta Young, whose remarkable career stretched over seven decades - beginning as a child extra during the Silent Era of motion pictures, attaining star status as a romantic leading lady during Hollywood's Golden Age, and on into television as the host of her own popular dramatic series, the Loretta Young Show, on NBC. Following the long-running success of her NBC Dramatic Anthology series - the first Loretta Young Show - which ran for eight years, from 1953-1961, Miss Young switched networks to star in this series. Miss Young plays a New York magazine writer trying to raise seven children; James Philbrook played her boss, the magazine editor she eventually marries.
