Footage will include illegal drinking in\u00a0the 1920s, home movies of FDR during the Great Depression, scenes of the Pearl Harbor attack, Elvis Presley&#8217;s TV debut on the <em>Ed Sullivan Show<\/em> and the Nixon-Kennedy debate. The five-parter, narrated\u00a0by Liev Schreiber, premieres on July 2 at 8 p.m.<\/p>\n<p><em>America in Color<\/em>\u00a0is produced by Arrow Media and Smithsonian Networks. Nick Metcalfe serves as executive producer,\u00a0Tom Brisley is creative director and Lucie Ridout is series producer. John Cavanagh, Charles Poe and David Royle are executive producers for Smithsonian Channel.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cHistory was not lived in black and white, it was lived in color,\u201d said Royle, the executive VP of programming and production at Smithsonian Channel. \u201c<em>America in Color<\/em> is a groundbreaking series that transforms a past that seemed gray and distant into a cinematic experience. We believe it is the most ambitious colorizing of factual images ever undertaken on American television, and it enables us to see America in a new light\u2014through which iconic moments in 20th-century history become more compelling and tangible than ever.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>This summer Smithsonian Channel is due to debut America in Color, a new series that will show iconic moments from 20th-century American history in color for the first time.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":479,"featured_media":10215,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"pmpro_default_level":0,"footnotes":""},"categories":[69],"tags":[2262,84,180],"class_list":["post-10214","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","","category-top-stories","tag-america-in-color","tag-arrow-media","tag-smithsonian-channel","pmpro-has-access"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v21.7 -
