Hello Americans, a 1942-43 CBS Radio series, was created to promote inter-American understanding and friendship during World War II. Produced, directed, and hosted by Orson Welles, the show was made as part of Welles&#39; contribution to the war effort, influenced by his interest in Latin and South American culture. Aired on Sundays at 8 p.m. ET, the series ran for 12 episodes, with its last broadcast on January 31, 1943. Sponsored by the Office of the Coordinator of Inter-American Affairs, it featured actors from Welles&#39;s Mercury Theatre repertory ensemble.</p><p>The show, with a generally lighthearted tone, had moments of editorial insertions on topics like racism and fascism. A key aspect of the program was portraying Central and South American countries as rich in history and culture. Developed in collaboration with the CIA, Hello Americans was inspired by a trip Orson Welles took to South America. It featured guest appearances by Hans Conried, Gerald Mohr, Laird Cregar, Agnes Moorehead, Ray Collins, and Carmen Miranda.
