Originally produced by Media Rich in 2009.
1945 marked the end of World War II and the beginning of the power, politics and prosperity of the Post-War years. The presidency passed from Truman to Eisenhower and millions moved out of the city and onto the Interstate Highway System. The Cold War loomed, babies boomed, and the suburban family became the bull’s-eye for the mass market. Americans turned-on their televisions and tuned-in their car radios to hear the latest music fad: rock ‘n roll. It was a period of remarkable change and innovation that laid the foundation for the modern America we recognize today..
