We recognize him as our sharply dressed, cigarette-smoking tour guide of The Twilight Zone, but the entertainment business once regarded him as the "Angry Young Man" of Television. Before he became the revered master of science fiction, Rod Serling was a just a writer who had to fight to make his voice heard. He vehemently challenged the networks and viewership alike to expand their minds and standards--rejecting notions of censorship, racism and war. But it wasn't until he began to write about real world enemies in the guise of aliens and monsters that people lent their ears. In doing so, he pushed the television industry to the edge of glory, and himself to the edge of sanity. Rod operated in a dimension beyond that of contemporary society, making him both a revolutionary and an outsider."--Publisher. 600 10 $a Serling, Rod, $d 1924-1975 $v Comic books, strips, etc. 600 17 $a Serling, Rod, $d 1924-1975. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00119943 648 7 $a 1900-1999 $2 fast 650 0 $a Authors, American $y 20th century $v Comic books, strips, etc. $v Comic books, strips, etc. 650 0 $a Television personalities $z United States $v Comic books, strips, etc. $v Comic books, strips, etc. 650 7 $a COMICS & GRAPHIC NOVELS / Nonfiction / Biography & Memoir. $2 bisacsh 650 7 $a BIOGRAPHY & AUTOBIOGRAPHY / Entertainment & Performing Arts. $2 bisacsh 650 7 $a COMICS & GRAPHIC NOVELS / Science Fiction. $2 bisacsh 650 7 $a Authors, American. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00821764 650 7 $a Television personalities. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01146966 651 7 $a United States. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01204155 655 7 $a Biographical comics $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01921595 655 7 $a Comics (Graphic works) $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01921613 655 7 $a Biographical comics. $2 lcgft 941 $a 1 952 $l GHPD771 $d 20240412010929.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=05B1ACEEF89211EE8A7114532DECA4DBInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
