Profiles In Courage (biography)

    (NBC Primetime, 1964 - 1965)

    [this was based upon a 1956 special based upon President John F. 
     Kennedy's Pulitzer-prize winning book "Profiles In Courage"
     which profiled American leaders throughout history; the President
     himself had participated in the production of the original
     one-shot special and had hoped that a series of such books
     might continue what he started and expand beyond the biographies
     of politicians, which this TV series produced by Robert Saudek
     attempted to do...]
