Camera Three

Camera Three

Camera Three was a Sunday morning program devoted to the arts. It ran on CBS from 1956 to 1979, and moved to PBS in its final year to make way for the then-new "CBS News Sunday Morning".

"Camera Three" featured programs showcasing drama, ballet, art, music, anything involving fine arts. One of its most notable presentations was a condensation of Marc Blitzstein's leftist opera "The Cradle Will Rock". Presented on November 29, 1964, it was a dramatic demonstration of how far television had come since its early days, in its willingness to present a work that surely would have been banned from the airwaves during the era of Joseph McCarthy.
