Your Prize Story is an American television anthology that aired live on NBC from April 2, 1952, to May 28, 1952, on Wednesday nights at 10:00PM est. In a unique format the programs sponsor Hazel Bishop, requested that viewers submit story ideas to the show. The story had to be true and would be rewritten by the shows staff before airing. If the viewers story was used on the air, they received a $1,000 prize. The presentations were done with little scenery or props, similar to dinner theater.[1]
The program debuted as I Confess. The name was changed to Your Prize Story beginning on April 9, 1952. Albert McCleery was the producer and director. It originated from WNBT.[2]
