Edward Vito, solo harpist long associated with the NBC Symphony and Arturo Toscanini, is a graduate of the Cincinnati College of Music. A varied career includes recitals at Town Hall in New York and solo appearances with the leading orchestras in America.

When the Symphony of the Air was organized, Mr. Vito became its manager, during which time the orchestra toured the Far East with distinction for our State Department. He completed a solo tour for President Eisenhower's Cultural Exchange Program and in 1958 received an award as "Musician of the Year" from the University of the Philippines.
