Hi Margaret, I worked in the newsroom at KFI Radio, Los Angeles, when Art was there in the 1970’s. He was well-liked and respected.I think he deserves a Wikipedia page. If you are interested in setting up such a page, I would be willing to help. Kind regards, Jim Wilbar

Following my US Navy days, I used my GI Bill at Hollywood Columbia School of Broadcasting, Mr Hannes was my tutor/instructor early 1970's. One key facet he helped me with was breathing from the diaphragm. It has been a key to overcoming asthma. I so wish I'd followed through but a young family was counting on me...Bob Lannon
