<font size="4">A brilliant academic, Catholic prelate, writer, evangelist, and
television personality, Fulton J. Sheen was also a mesmerizing public
speaker, endowed with extraordinary oratorical gifts, a charming sense
of humor, and a magnetic personal presence. At the height of his fame,
Sheen’s radio program, <i>The Catholic Hour</i>, had an audience of four million and his television show <i>Life is Worth Living</i>
was viewed by an estimated thirty million people each week. He had the
courage and the imagination to use the new media in the mid-twentieth
century to engage a world growing increasingly skeptical of
Christianity.
