Sci-fi and Serling: A Writer's Gimmick
The work of noted TV writer Rod Serling includes many science fiction plotlines and stories of space travel. But underlying many of these scripts are messages dealing with serious topics like racism and corporate greed. Weary of sponsors manipulating his work during "The Golden Age of Television," Serling found that he could convey his ideas more easily by turning to the fantasy genre. Guest speaker Gordon C. Webb, a noted Serling authority, will discuss Serling's impact using examples from his ground-breaking series The Twilight Zone and other Serling works.
