8.15 Twenty Minutes: Against Oblivion Poet and critic Ian Hamilton champions some of the lost poets of the last century. 2: Norman Cameron and Weldon Kees
Norman Cameron (1905-53) wrote only 70 poems, and Weldon Kees (1914-55) about 150. Their merits and real talents have been obscured not only by their slender outputs, but in Cameron's case also by his famous friends, and in Kees's case by his bizarre end - he disappeared without trace.

About this project
This site contains the BBC listings information which the BBC printed in Radio Times between 1923 and 2009. You can search the site for BBC programmes, people, dates and Radio Times editions.
We hope it helps you find information about that long forgotten BBC programme, research a particular person or browse your own involvement with the BBC.
Through the listings, you will also be able to use the Genome search function to find thousands of radio and TV programmes that are already available to view or listen to on the BBC website.
There are more than 5 million programme listings in Genome. This is a historical record of the planned output and the BBC services of any given time. It should be viewed in this context and with the understanding that it reflects the attitudes and standards of its time - not those of today.
To read scans of the Radio Times magazines from the 1920s, 30s, 40s and 50s, you can navigate by issue.
