In the 1950’s, his name and scandal went hand-in-hand…..

HARTFORD, Conn. (AP) – Remember the movie “Quiz Show?” The man whose real-life role in a 1950’s game show scandal that rocked the early days of TV has died.

Charles Van Doren was an academic who made a series of appearances on the game show “Twenty-One”, aided by the fact that producers fed him the correct answers. Van Doren ended up pleading guilty to perjury for lying to a
grand jury investigating the scandal.

Van Doren was 93. Ralph Fiennes played him in “Quiz Show.”
