(On some corners more than others.) Since he was born - and not a day before his unceremonious birth - Hunter has held more jobs than you can shake a stick at. But in the interest of non-violence, let us not do any stick-shaking or saber-rattling. But a bit of jousting and even a bit of horse-play is in order. If we follow the bouncing ball of his colorful career, we can either sight a divinely guided meteoric rise to name recognition... or a personal contest for him to see how many jobs he could rack up in one lifetime. (Note: his maternal Grandma Hattie lived to be 102). So, without further ado before saying adieu... let us just list a sampler of the jobs he has held since he was a nine-year-old cleaning an elderly woman's house. Here goes: busboy; Sunday School teacher; organist; choirmaster; eighth grade teacher; educational radio station announcer/producer; ad agency copywriter; freshmen women's dorm housemaster; TV reporter/anchor; author; genealogist; banquet speaker; newspaper columnist; radio talk show host; philanthropist; cooking instructor; children's advocate; lecturer; adjunct communications instructor; university administrator; police commissioner; Missouri Historical Society, Campbell House Museum, and Backstoppers board member; St. Louis Symphony Orchestra narrator; and choral music composer. And through this variegated (rather than "checkered") career, the author managed to collect the following 300+ fascinating facts about St. Louis history he bets you never learned in school.vizualizați mai puține
