On November 13th, PMC welcomed to our podcast studio Matthew Greeley, the great-great-great-grandson of Horace Greeley, who founded and edited the New York Tribune and was involved in U.S. politics as a Congressman and Representative in the 1800’s. Like his great-great-great-grandfather, Matthew is also involved in media and flew in from The Big Apple to interview Robert Williams, who wrote a book called, Horace Greeley: Champion of American Freedom. Matt arrived with a pile of books, papers, pictures, and a list of well-thought-out questions to ask the author which resulted in a lengthy interview and helped to answer such questions as: What was Horace’s personal and professional life like? Why did he lose the presidential election of 1872? And did the gifted Greeley have a predisposition to Asperger’s Syndrome? Matthew and Robert also covered at length many other aspects of Mr. Greeley’s life. PMC was honored to have these two great talents in our studio.  Stay tuned for information on how to listen
