Plot: What's the story about?
Rod Serling grows up outside of Syracuse, New York as the class clown, though he eventually matures enough to write for his high school newspaper. Immediately after graduation, he enlists in the U.S. Army and trains as a paratrooper. He is sent west to fight in the Philippines, where he sees death all around him each day. Though he is honored with a Purple Heart and a Bronze Star, Serling’s experience in the military haunts him and has a profound effect on his later work. After being discharged, Serling attends Antioch College, where he begins writing and performing in radio shows on campus. Following his radio days, Serling moves into television, writing for a local station in Cincinnati before going out on his own. He sells several scripts, but resents the compromises that network sponsors and censors force him to make, so he decides to create his own show, "The Twilight Zone."
