WOR-TV, Channel 9, announced that its program “Straight Talk” will present “Art from the Concentration Camps” at II a.m. Thursday, May II. A spokesman for WOR-TV said the subject was selected as a result of “the public’s renewed interest in the shocking and awesome events of the Holocaust.” The program will focus on drawings and paintings of Jewish artists imprisoned in Nazi concentration comps which can also be seen at the Jewish Museum in New York. “Straight Talk” is a public affairs program produced by Stanley Friedman, directed by John Wolf and hosted by Mary Helen McPhillips and Phyllis Haynes.
