As we continue our tribute section to the many women who helped make the 1968-1969 television season so memorable, we turn our attention to one of television's all time ladies: Eve Arden.

Ms. Arden was one of television's pioneers, and along with Lucille Ball, television's first female stars. Her legendary series, 'Our Miss Brooks' was both a radio and television hit, starting in the late 1940s on radio.

The radio show made the successful transition to television on CBS in 1952, and the show ran with two formats... the first from 1952 to 1956 at the Madison High School, and the final season with a new relocation to a Southern California/San Fernando Valley private elementary school.

In many ways, the Mothers-In-Law series was a comeback of sorts for Ms. Arden to weekly television, and this 'Mothers' show had a successful two season run on NBC under the production expertise of the legendary Desi Arnaz.
