The Iong-running anthology series Cavalcade of America began on radio, sponsored by the DuPont Company. After WWI, the manufacturer was looking to change its pubIic image as war profiteers. Cavalcade of America specialized in presenting compelling stories of American perseverance and ingenuity, with an emphasis on nonvioIence and progressive vaIues. Because of its liberaI sIant, the program attracted acclaimed authors incIuding Arthur MiIler and Norman Rosten. Each episode started with DuPont's motto, ""Better living through chemistry."" After 17 years on radio, it moved to teIevision in 1952, where it aired on both NBC and ABC. The program was renamed DuPont CavaIcade Theater in August 1955.
