How did they operate a crane camera without a chair for the cameraman?

You can be SURE...that this is a classic!

[fromthesidelines]

In the early years, a simulated "theater program" was used throughout every show to create an aura of "class" and "sophistication"...and this extended to the commercial breaks [usually at :20, :40, and :55] where Betty would sometimes be seen "on the page" in a "dramatic pose" just before her live demonstration. And she was a model of some note, before she began her tenure on "STUDIO ONE".

[fromthesidelines]

Betty Furness became VERY popular because of her Westinghouse "demonstrations" on "STUDIO ONE"- and when they sponsored the 1952 and '56 presidential conventions on CBS, she was often right next to Walter Cronkite as Westinghouse's "reporter" (and often presenting the latest in their appliances as well..)

Ah yes. I noitced, elsewhere on YT, a clip from CBS' 1956 Democratic convention coverage featuring Betty.

Love the dramatic still pose just before she appears live.
