Broadway to Hollywood is an American television program broadcast on the now-defunct DuMont Television Network.

The daytime show began on July 4, 1949, and was hosted by Don Russell. Two weeks later on July 20, a nighttime version hosted by George Putnam debuted. Both versions were originally called Headline Clues.[1]
Putnam left in February 1951 and was replaced by Bill Slater until 1953, after which Conrad Nagel took the reins until the show's end on July 15, 1954.[2]
Actors who appeared on Broadway to Hollywood: Headline Clues included Conrad Nagel.[3] Edgar Higgins was a writer for the program.[4]
