Document 206468
NEWTON N. MINOW. Photograph signed: "Newton N. Minow". B/w,
10x8. Newton Minow was Chairman of the Federal Communications Commission
under President Kennedy. The S.S. Minnow, the tourist ship that ran
aground in TV's Gilligan's Island (1964-1967), was named after Minow who
coined the description of television as a "vast wasteland" in a 1961 speech.
Minow had urged network executives to become more involved in the creative
content of their shows which annoyed Gilligan creator Sherwood Schwartz. Fine
condition.
