Meeting of Minds is a television program that was produced by Steve Allen and broadcast on PBS from the years 1977 through 1981. The show featured interviews with guests who had key roles in the history of the planet. Guests would engage in conversation with one another and the host, Steve Allen, on a wide range of subjects, including history, science, religion, philosophy, and more. It shared a lot of conceptual similarities with the Canadian television series Witness to Yesterday, which was produced by Arthur Voronka and went on the air three years before Meeting of Minds did. In reality, Steve Allen played George Gershwin on an episode of Witness to Yesterday in 1976, one year before Meeting of Minds made its debut on television. The exact words spoken by the historical figures were replicated as faithfully as was humanly possible. Although the performance was completely scripted, the scripts were written in such a way as to give the impression that the historical characters were having a conversation that developed naturally. Plato, Socrates, Aristotle, Thomas Aquinas, Martin Luther, Cleopatra, Marie Antoinette, Florence Nightingale, Thomas Paine, Francis Bacon, Thomas Jefferson, Voltaire, Karl Marx, Charles Darwin, Daniel O'Connell, Catherine II, and Oliver Cromwell were among the guests. Each episode would typically be broken up into two sections, each of which would be broadcast on its own. The majority of or all of the guests would be presented throughout the course of the first portion, and the conversations would continue into the second part of the show. A total of 24 episodes were created for the show.
