Meeting of Minds

Conceived and developed by Steve Allen, PBS-TV series Meeting of Minds won the Peabody Award, an Emmy Award, a TV Critics Award, the Encyclopedia Britannica Award and the Film Advisory Board Award. It brought together the most provocative figures of history for conversations and conflict. The result is an outrageously stimulating exchange of ideas -- the ultimate talk show. This program includes the unapologetic Cleopatra, jovial Theodore Roosevelt, curmudgeonly Thomas Paine, Father Thomas Aquinas and more.
