## Resource

CBS Radio Mystery Theater presents “The Star Killers,” episode 601, originally broadcast February 15, 1977. Written by Sam Dann and directed by Himan Brown, this CBS Radio Network mystery features Mercedes McCambridge, Norman Rose, Court Benson, and Judith Light. After disappearing from public life, celebrated nuclear researcher Dr. Mary-Jane Mariset recounts her astonishing past in therapy—including her marriage to a man she believed was an alien and the troubling questions surrounding his death. Is she deluded, concealing something, or describing an impossible truth? CBS Radio Mystery Theater presents the original broadcast with a newly produced contextual introduction, a short closing announcement, and gently cleaned/mastered audio for a more consistent listening experience.
