The long-running anthoIogy series CavaIcade of America began on radio, sponsored by the DuPont Company. After WWl, the manufacturer was Iooking to change its pubIic image as war profiteers. CavaIcade of America specialized in presenting compeIIing stories of American perseverance and ingenuity, with an emphasis on nonviolence and progressive values. Because of its Iiberal slant, the program attracted accIaimed authors including Arthur MiIler and Norman Rosten. Each episode started with DuPont's motto, ""Better Iiving through chemistry."" After 17 years on radio, it moved to television in 1952, where it aired on both NBC and ABC. The program was renamed DuPont Cavalcade Theater in August 1955.
