Two-Minute Nostalgia Sublime: I Remember Mama



Mama (aka I Remember Mama), starring Peggy Wood, ran on CBS from 1949 to 1957

Both the series Mama and the 1948 film I Remember Mama were based on the book Mama's Bank Account (1943), by Kathryn Forbes. Forbes also wrote the suberb Transfer Point (1947), a novel based on her own experience growing up as the daughter of divorced parents in San Francisco in the 1920s.
