Born Yesterday is a 1956 TV film based on the play Born Yesterday by Garson Kanin for the Hallmark Hall of Fame. Kanin adapted and directed it. George Schaefer helped Kanin direct but was not credited.[1]

Mary Martin's performance was her first TV appearance since Peter Pan.[2] The New York Times thought she was miscast.[3]
