Janson Media Inks Deal With American Public Television for Shirley Temple Profile

Janson Media announced today that its popular Hollywood Collection series title, Shirley Temple: America's Little Darling has been licensed to Boston-based American Public Television. Through the deal, the documentary will be syndicated to U.S. public broadcasting stations. In Shirley Temple: America's Little Darling, host Tommy Tune takes a look back at the career of one of the most iconic child actors of all time. Her films saved a movie studio from bankruptcy, and a President credited her with raising the morale of Depression-weary Americans. Her earliest movies gave a foretaste of her talents and soon would become the songs and dances that helped make those movies immortal. Here she is at her heart-stirring best in films like Little Miss Marker, Now And Forever, Bright Eyes, The Little Colonel, Poor Little Rich Girl, Stowaway, The Little Princess, The Bachelor and The Bobby Soxer. The adoration for the Academy Award winner is still felt to this day by adults and children alike.

&'Watching her today, she is still phenomenal.&' -The New York Times
