One of the longest,
radio dramas ever broadcasted, Ma Perkins paved the
way for modern soap operas. From 1933-1956, Ma Perkins
was played by Virginia Payne who was only 23 years old
when she started. Ma Perkins was the owner and manager
of a lumber yard in Rushville Center, which had a population
of just 4,000. The show revolved around Ma Perkins,
her three children, Evey, John, and Fay, and their children.
