Information Please was an American radio quiz show,
created by Dan Golenpaul, which aired on NBC from May 17, 1938 to
June 25, 1948. The series was moderated by Clifton Fadiman
(1904–1999). A panel of experts would attempt to answer
questions submitted by listeners. If the panelists were stumped,
the questioner earned five dollars and a complete edition of the
Encyclopædia Britannica. As the years went by, the prize
money increased accordingly.
Panel regulars included writer-actor-pianist Oscar Levant
(1906–1972) and newspaper columnists and renowned wits and
intellectuals Franklin P. Adams (1881–1960) and John Kieran
(1892–1981). All the panelists were well-versed in a wide
range of topics, though each had a specialty. Music questions were
often addressed to Levant. Adams was well known for his mastery of
poetry and Shakespeare. Kieran was an expert in languages and
botany. A typical question would have three or four parts and would
require the panelists to get a majority of the questions right,
lest they lose the prize money.
