Sullivan, Ed(ward Vincent) (1901-1974) → Global Index → Persons Index |
Host of CBS's The Ed Sullivan Show (aka The Toast of the Town)
from 1948 to 1971, the longest running variety series in television history. Among the many celebrities appearing on the show, the performances of Elvis Presley in 1956-1957 (Season 8, Episode 51; Season 9, Episodes 6 and 16) and The Beatles in 1964-1965 (Season 16, Episodes 19, 20, 21; Season 18, Episode 1) stand out as television events. Among the more regular guests was also Walt Disney, who was showcased by Sullivan three times in 1956 (Season 8, Episodes 24 and 40; Season 9, Episode 15) and again in 1963 (Season 15, Episode 38). Sullivan "succumbed to the anti-Communicst hysteria of the early 1950's, allowing blacklisted dancer Paul Draper on his show, then apologizing when conservative critics denounced the appearance. (He continued banning 'blacklisted' acts for several more years.)" (Mike Spadoni, "Biography of Ed Sullivan") |
