TV & VIDEO - Dec. 27, 1988

Submitted for your approval: A birthday memorial to one Rod Serling, creator of a popular series in TV’s childhood known as “The Twilight Zone.” About 25 members of the Rod Serling Foundation got together in Binghamton, N.Y., Sunday evening--Serling would have been 64 on Sunday--to unveil a plaque in the Binghamton park where Serling set one of his more memorable episodes, “Walking Distance.” Born in Syracuse, N.Y., Serling moved to Binghamton with his family when he was a child. The foundation, formed in 1985 to commemorate the writer, holds film festivals featuring Serling’s movies and episodes of “The Twilight Zone” and “Night Gallery,” his 1970s TV show.
