MAXWELL DEMILLE
ON THE AIR
Coming to you by electronic radio transmission from the glittering heart of old Hollywood - the Metropolis of Make Believe - where the ghosts of great ballrooms still tap their feet, and the night always begins with a melody.
ABOUT THE SHOW
Each week, Maxwell DeMille guides listeners through the twilight of swing, style, and nearly true stories - where the music of the 1940s opens doors to remembered nights, legendary rooms, and the moments that linger after the applause fades.
Part radio broadcast, part time machine, Maxwell DeMille On The Air is an hour-long invitation to pull up a chair, lean in close, and let the music do the talking.

CREATIVE TEAM
Stanley Sheff
Writer - Director
Stanley Sheff is a veteran radio and film writer, director, and producer whose work spans comedy, long-form radio, and cinematic storytelling.
He is best known as the co-creator, co-writer, producer, director, and on-air performer of The Young Marquis and Stanley, the influential two-hour comedy program heard on KROQ-FM from 1977 to 1983. During its run, the show became one of the station's most beloved productions, generating more fan mail than any other program on the air.
Following KROQ, Sheff worked closely with Orson Welles as editor, collaborator, and uncredited co-director on The Orson Welles Show, Welles's final completed project, continuing a tradition rooted in Mercury Theatre on the Air and author-driven broadcasting.
His work emphasizes voice, atmosphere, and listener imagination - treating sound not as accompaniment, but as architecture.
