Gloria Lockerman, 13, the Baltimore spelling prodigy, has never spent any of her $48000 prize money from The $64,000 Question and The $64,000 Challenge. The money sits in a trust until she comes of age while she remains a regular Western High School student riding the bus and helping at home with her grandparents. Collected fame has not altered her outlook or routine.

The Cinerama Idea and Its Pioneers
The Cinerama concept began in 1932 with Fred Waller, a Brooklyn born inventor who left school at fourteen. He sought full vision by duplicating human sight within a curved spherical theater to enhance depth and peripheral view, aided by Ralph Walker. Laurence Rockefeller later joined the effort as financial backer for the first Cinerama studio.
