Sandra Michael

Sandra Michael (born Anna Marie Mikkelsen; May 20, 1906 – August 29, 2003) was an American writer—and sometimes host/announcer or actor—who had a relatively brief but high-profile career spent primarily in old-time radio, best known for creating ambitious daytime dramas (she disdained the term "soap opera"). Most notable among these was Against the Storm, which, in 1942, became the first and only daytime radio drama to ever win a Peabody Award.
