| Description |
On 5 August 1884 the cornerstone of the Statue of Liberty - an enduring symbol of freedom and fraternity - was laid. Close to 60 years later the international relations the Statue promoted were still alive, and included New Zealand. This photograph captures the inauguration of the "Answering New Zealand" radio programs, aired by The Voice of America c.1942. Featuring various distinguished New Zealanders and Americans, the guests answered questions about the United States that had been sent in by New Zealanders. It comes from the Sir Walter Nash Collection of photographs (see the full series here: www.archway.archives.govt.nz/ViewEntity.do?code=22625). Seated before the microphones (L. to R.) were David Jenkins, a young New Zealander who was working in the US and who asked the questions on behalf of the listeners; Mrs. Eleanor Roosevelt, then America's First Lady; Paul Robeson, great American actor and singer; Mr. Deems Taylor, distinguished American music critic and author; Hon. Walter Nash, New Zealand's Minister to the US and later Prime Minister; and Mr. George Palmer, the Superintendent in charge of maintaining the Statue of Liberty.
