Getts, Clark H.

Clark H. Getts (b. 1893) was a public relations counsel and booking agent. He established an independent lecture and radio production bureau in 1932 and incorporated his public relations business in 1940. His clients included politicians, statesmen and show business personalities. Getts also produced radio shows including John T. Flynn's "Behind the Headlines," television shows including "Crime Report" and touring musical shows including "Fiesta Mexicana." Among his clients were photographer and documentary filmmaker Martin Johnson and his wife, writer and children's author Osa Johnson, who lectured extensively on their South Seas and African explorations. Two years after Martin Johnson was killed in an airplane crash in 1937, Osa Johnson married Getts. They were divorced in the late 1940s.
