Elaine Horn: Broadcasting From Bellingham
09/26/2025 - 12/31/2025 - 12:00 am at Whatcom Museum, Old City Hall
121 Prospect St.
The Whatcom Museum presents “Elaine Horn: Broadcasting From Bellingham!”
CLICK HERE FOR MORE INFORMATION!
This photo exhibit features photos about the broadcasting career of Elaine Horn in Bellingham. From the Whatcom Museum website:
The Whatcom Museum presents Elaine Horn: Broadcasting from Bellingham, a Photo Archive exhibition curated by Jeff Jewell. Horn (1920–1998) was a broadcasting trailblazer with a career that spanned three decades and brought her into homes from British Columbia to Everett, Washington.
Horn began in radio in the 1940s, but by 1962, she had moved into television. At a time when Wagon Train and Bonanza ruled the television ratings, Woman’s World premiered on Bellingham’s KVOS channel 12 with Horn as its charismatic host. Woman’s World appealed to a daytime television audience of mid-century homemakers, making it among the earliest shows in the daytime-TV genre targeted to women. It featured a wide range of topics—from fashion and cooking to cosmetics, childcare, and entertaining—and quickly became one of the most popular shows of this region and beyond.
Most impressive is that Woman’s World aired live, without edits or re-takes. Elaine faced a single, often stationary camera and addressed her audience without a script. The half-hour shows relied on Elaine’s gifted improvisation to carry the program. She was a skilled interviewer with poise and an endearing authenticity.
In 1984, KVOS-TV donated more than 400 original 4×5 negatives to the Whatcom Museum, offering a unique look into local broadcasting history. Captured between 1962 and 1966, the images chronicle Horn in the television studio, often joined by guests. She was both the Woman’s World host and the commercial announcer—a format that early television adapted from radio, merging advertisements into a program through a single, trusted voice.
Looking back on her career, Elaine told the Bellingham Herald in 1977, “One of the reasons I enjoy what I do is because of people. I like people. Everyone has a story.”
