General Jonathan Wainwright with Two Men on a Studio Set, 1949

General Jonathan Wainwright, in full dress uniform, appears on a studio set with two guests in this 1949 photograph. Wainwright's fame as the commander who endured the fall of Corregidor and years of Japanese captivity made him a sought-after guest for radio, film, and civic programs in the years following the war.
